Just pause for a second and actually think about what that would look like in South and South East Europe. they have to go through france to get to england. why not stay in france.

More of them stay in France than come to the UK, and that was the case long before Brexit too. Why should we not do our bit just because of geography? You and I are lucky enough to have been born in a rich, developed country with endless opportunity. Others have completely different circumstances through no fault of their own. The lives of an overwhelming majority of the population aren't impacted at all by immigrants, mine certainly never has been. I doubt yours has either although I might be incorrect. We have one of the biggest economies in the world, it's not unreasonable in the 21st century that we should be expected to take a little bit extra strain to help people less fortunate than ourselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Gonzo 8,177 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 This is well off topic now though, but I think most illegal immigrants in the UK are mostly people overstaying visas. So Brexit & any fear of refugees doesn’t really address the core of the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current Prime Minister is a known liar and adulterer, this is a matter of fact and record, not an opinion. It shames me to see him elevated to the highest office in the land and represent us on the world stage because I care about the UK and believe the country is better than him. I'm optimistic that one day we'll see sense again and choose someone with integrity and honesty as our leader, be it a Labour or Conservative leader. Johnson's tenure and a lot of our domestic and foreign policy under his government won't be looked back on kindly. Any videos? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, so basic. I feel sorry for your children if this is legit and genuinely how you feel about people who might not be better off and actually struggling. My guess is that you've never actually experienced the struggle or at least been exposed to those that do suffer. You're just happy to generalise and look down on them. 'Just get a job'. Yeah, so easy. Get a job and life will be rosy again for everyone. Simple as that in your world! 1 minute ago, UNIQUE said: you still never got back to me with an answer to why the people with starving kids dont get a job. if benefits are at the point where kids are starving let the parents get a job.

DeadLinesman 5,938 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 ‘Get a job’. Fuck me. I earn a very decent salary and still struggle to get my kids into nursery due to funding. It just isn’t a straightforward as ‘get a job’. Some poor bastards work 2/3 jobs and still can’t afford anything. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are these stories you're seeing about illegal immigrants being put up in hotels anyway . Your answer to avoiding kids starving is 'get a job'.

What kind of logic is that? my logic is if we had the means to home them. give them a job or feed them then why do we have homeless people. and kids starving in the UK. plus 99% of the people that get off the boats are fighting aged men. where are the women and children? why are these men not fighting for the country they came from. how many british men and women have fought and died for this country? why are these men not fighting for that country.
