The people smugglers are taking us to court to get there boats back, how long before this happens.

Not long . Starmer has just ordered 10,000 puncture repair kits from amazon , and is busy putting together a crack team of puncture repair specialists from kwikfit .all paid for with pensioners heating allowance. 

What a guy .

I can categorically say that these stories are 99% correct, we employed immigrants after checking all legal requirements they were taken on. Come Christmas time they all wanted 2 or 3 months off to go home. Many used to be refused because we could not run a contract with the amount away for that length of time. Those that took the time off anyway were dismissed under AWOL regs in their absence.    

One of the last dismissed threaten discrimination, he said because he was Black, he started to get abusive and threatened violence. 

Some are OK (just) quite a few are what we expect, treat women and 2nd class citizens and a few have been dismissed due to the sexual comments to female staff, again managed out following correct process and dismissed. 

Eastern Europeans on the other hand have all been well mannered and bloody good workers, 75% have worked up and tripled there income, one in particular possibly increased annual income x 4. 

If they are working they have every right to go home on holiday, as only legal immigrants are allowed to work.

Hello, If i was young again with family i would look at emigrating but to what Country 🤔

Any country worth living in probably wouldn't take you. I'm not saying that to be disrespectful towards you, it's just that these countries have the bar set very high. For good reason

At least a couple of posters have queried the authenticity of the story, as to the rest 😂

Is it so hard to believe ?
Its well documented by border force, and the government, that many asylum seekers have been travelling back to their home country to see relatives.

I wouldn’t rule anything out these days but that’s not the point.

The point is that some appear to take anything conforming to their bias as gospel.

That works both ways.

There are some that won't believe a truth, even when presented with cold hard facts.

Again I don’t think the “works both ways” is relevant here.

We live in a post truth era, we can choose whether we go along with that or not. In the current trajectory the truth becomes more and more obscure and from some perspectives irrelevant even.

Take Trumps accusation that Zelensky started the war with Putin for example.

Zelensky had at least 2 years to reach a settlement with Russia over Donbas and Crimea, he won the election in 2019 on a ticket of ending the civil war.

He did neither, instead he moved closer to NATO and prepared for conflict.

The war started in 2014 while he was still a bad comedian, so no he he didn't start it, but he did nothing to avoid escalation, and everything foment it.

History will not be kind to Zelensky, and if I were him, I'd find a very deep hole to hide in.

I can’t think of any state that has exactly lit itself up in glory regarding the Ukraine conflict.

We have previously discussed how the US investment in Ukraine unsettled the Kremlin.

I don’t believe Trump means a lot of what he says but there’s little denying the facts of what he says.

Your use of Trump jargon like bad comedian is duly noted😂
