The truth behind Britain's "recovery"

I see we are supposedly out of recession, or "just out of recession", shall we say, given that our economy grew by a dismal 0.1% in the last quarter of 2009! I believe this may be the result of a lucky company in, Tiverton winning a contract to supply soup kitchen equipment to tented village outside Sacramento (although the Daily Mash credits the upturn to a chubby woman who bought a Cadbury's Boost bar at a Shell Garage on New Year's Eve )
Apparently many City analysts are very surprised and disappointed as such minimal growth, they were expecting growth of at least 0.4%, signifying a stronger recovery, whereas , in fact, even the Chancellor, Nobodies Darling, admits that the upturn is so fragile we could easily slip back into recession in the first or second quarter of 2010.
News programs are full of bewildered commentators speculating as to why it wasn't any better. They just don't get it do they? They can't admit we are broke, and we have been for a very long time. Even in the decade leading up to the 2008 crunch, when they pretended that we were so prosperous and our economy was doing so well, what we were actually doing was living like the family which buys its food on their credit card and makes the minimum repayment each month. We all know what happens to that family, they feed on steak for a few years and then they starve.
We are nowhere near a true recovery and will not be for years to come.
How could this be? surely we should be booming, after all we have been importing millions of immigrants for the last forty years, and even greater numbers in the last ten years, weren't they supposed to boost our economy and be such a huge benefit to all of us? Isn't that what everyone told us? Didn't they say that mass immigration would lead to greater prosperity? Well it sees they were wrong. Nothing is booming in Britain apart from pawnbrokers. The fact is we are just crawling out of the worst recession in our history, with our economy in the worst shape it has ever been in peacetime and our nation is in greater debt than it has ever been.
The truth becomes clearer by the day, immigration has brought us no benefit whatsoever, in fact it has made the situation infinitely worse, and one day they will have to admit it.
