A UCL study? **** off!

The view is based on a rather old fashioned definition of the volume of working population required to support our retirees. You know, the old ****s that are coining it in now and voted to get rid of the foreigners that were supporting them.

Just out of interest, how is that net cost calculated? Does it include overseas students?
