I suppose you think that's racist to Henry, it is very simple we just do not want more people coming to the UK with this covid 19 situation, we do not have the housing, jobs, infrastructure or NHS to support our own citizens and the French don't care attitude is not helping, maybe they could all be sent to Scotland 

Hoy I used to like you 🤣🤣🤣

It's about balance, if all you see is people saying "...it's them..." is it balanced? Probably not, so if I put in someone who is from this country who is also as morally abhorrent as those who are not from this country is that something that is wrong?

A good balanced response there 👍 except for the actual point I was making was that it is you that it predominantly is throwing these things in buddy. We all know that we have more than enough home grown scrotes and believe me - I have some scrotes in my family - a big part of this is that we don't want everybody else's scrotes as well which is what is happening.

on another point, I worked with a guy years ago who had married a Muslim girl. He informed us that Pakistan is actually very well developed in the cities and that a lot of the people coming here were from the villages where they are not (he was talking about people coming at that time circa 2001). This is not me being racist, it isn't - this is from someone who had a first hand view and was part of the Birmingham Muslim community.

He told us is Mother-in-law actually got banned off a Muslim radio station because she used to phone up and call them all racists  - her pet bone of contention was where they were saying they wouldn't let their children marry a non-Muslim. Now this is somebody I would have liked to have met.

Truth is no country wants these people and many have the balls to say that but little old England has to take everyone and look after them when id guess 90% are economic migrants looking for money and that only.

 

Real refugees generally don't have the means to make the thousand mile journey

That's absolutely standard. And in fact, if you want to marry a Muslim you have to at least nominally convert and take a Muslim name. And have the snip,

You DO NOT  have to have the snip, it can be pretty detrimental to one's health in later years. 

You do have to convert if you want to have an Islamic ceremony (In the eyes of the family, you're not really married if you don't have a niqua) 

I was asked to pick a Muslim name, so I picked Isa (Jesus) it amused me somewhat 😀

Unfortunately, or fortunately in some ways, it didn't work out, for a variety of reasons, but it was certainly an interesting experience, and gave me great insight into 'the other side' particularly the fundamentalist mullah who married us, who gleefully told me sharia would be the predominant law in the UK within 10 years.. This was 10 years ago..

Interesting. I recall a Jimmy Young interview on R2 many moons ago, with some Muslim representation, who said when asked by Jimmy Young, what did they want, that they wouldn’t rest until their symbol was flying above No 10. 
Mr Young told him they would have a long wait.

Well, the guy I worked with hadn't converted - he had no prayer mat at work, no washing and wearing flip flops and all that. He admitted he was an exception to the rule and had married into a family that have over the years they have been here fully integrated into the UK society and respected it

Still got both fortunately 
I extracted myself out the marriage a few months after, for various reasons, most of them nothing to do with culture clash.

Yep, 100% down to the press. If you look into you'll see it's pretty much all down to one Journo.

Was it supposed to be a State secret? 

Instead of blaming journalists for reporting facts, perhaps might be better to ask why there are only two boats, and, if blame is the game, who is responsible for leaving Border Force so woefully ill-equipped. 

If the government could find the money to pay 3/4 of the working population's wages for a couple of months this year, then surely last year or the year before there should have been enough in the kitty to stump up the price of a few boats, particularly with Brexit coming down the pike.

It wouldn't matter if there were 100 boats, if they keep escorting them onto the beach, wrapping them up in blankets and putting them in touch with the first responders of government handouts. 

Might as well just pull a ferry up at Calais, and load em up, save all the hassle. 

Maybe lay some flights on from direct various African nations, and ask if anyone fancies coming to Blighty? 

It's not even funny though.
