I'm torn on how much of this to put on macroeconomic failure (the ECB sux, but is only indirectly relevant to the UK), and how much to put on good old fashioned racism and xenophobia.
Of course, the two are somewhat related, but the former seems to get used to excuse/explain the latter in a way that I think misses some of the point.
