A number of years ago, we went to the Lego Experience thingymajig in the Trafford Center with our kids - My wife was absolutely gob smacked that we were a minority there as she doesn't get out of Wales much with the exception of Chester!! In Liverpool there is a language school place - just across from the passport office (you couldn't make it up) and there are lots outside it - but you could say at least they are making the effort to learn the language.

Possibly because the fish they sell are rank rotten and no one in their right mind would eat it, I would only use it for bait in an emergency, also what has this to do with channel migrants? 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also want immigrants who will integrate into their society, not drag it down. They do not want gun crime, drug dealing or prisons with over 50% immigrant prisoners. Few would want any different, including the UK. Good post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its time our defence forces did something drastic and ballsy. How would it be if a sub was just off the French coast, wait for a likely boat to be passing that could render rapid assistance, let a couple of SBS men out to spike an inflatable with a few small punctures underneath so it has to head back then quietly slip away. Hello, I agree with top reference, it seems our country is not our own anymore , and if nothing is done our children and grand children and their future will be a difficult time to live in, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rewulf Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Hilarious, the EU are now discussing whether to change the asylum laws, so they don't get swamped. Oh for the halcyon days of 2015 😂 Now they want to keep them in containment at the borders for 4 months while they process them, apparently its then easier to send them back! Despite the obvious thing here, where the EU believes it's perfectly entitled to tear up an international human rights agreement, what happened to needing all these 'poor souls' to help pay their pensions, I thought it was more the merrier? 🤔 Oh how times change.

Many of them are not here to earn an honest living and pay taxes, many have no respect for our laws, culture or customs. Many have no respect for women, their religion or culture may have hatred of LGBTQ people.

Now tell me none of this true. 100 % correct , they dont want jobs and have to pay taxes and rents , then realise this is not the promise land they thought it would be , Same with the workers coming from Europe , they think the money Is higher than at home till they find out the cost of living is higher. They are coming here to try and take over , then it becomes like the place they have left , they have gained nothing , but ruined a great nation that has fought long and hard to get us to were we are now. They don't care for one minute for those who feel sorry for them . They will just use them for there own goal . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's telling of the amount who are coming in and rather than integrating, are setting up their own community at the exclusion of uk citizens.

Rewulf Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 I always thought the RNLI was for boats or persons in distress, not for escort and taxi service? Why don't they just go the whole hog and pick them up from French beaches , charge them the £5000 they would have given the traffickers, save everyone a load of hassle.... ....Then go and drop them off in S.Ireland , I hear they support refugee rights (as long as they don't go there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
