The Migrant problem.

Pretty much a no go area for me. Nothing of interest anymore in the town centre / linthorpe Road. For the match might go to Isaacs or in off the bar but that's rare and due to its close proximity to the train station
It's not though is it? Just because you are scared of brown people doesn't mean you should be. Sorry but if you think it's a no go area it's on you, not on the people who live and work there
 
The 4 main countries the refugees are fleeing are Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Iran. The West, including Britain has bombed the crap out of three of those countries and heavily sanctioned the other. In other words we have created the refugee problem - and you are suggesting that these refugees should go into the army - what, so that they can create more refugees?
 
I dont think or at least I hope the OP isnt being anti anything, he is normally a good egg . So I take it he isnt.

I think he is baffled and unhappy that the Rwanda debacle, and is has put his two bob in, I think he is receiving some good replies.
We really need a healthy procedure on lots of aspects, that shouldn't be able to be used as vote catchers by fascist elements.
All of this has the feeling we are at war with everybody but the yanks.

The saddest part is the not so educated or advantaged are denied to dream of getting a chance because they are classed as thick. Despite everything we moan about we are very lucky in a lot of respects. Some people are denied passports as it isn't a right in some places.
 
The Rwanda scheme is all b***ks. Its not about illegal immigrants, its not about protecting desperate, vulnerable people from smugglers. If it was, we would have processing centres in France. The problem for the Tories and their base is something like 75% of those making the crossing are legally entitled to stay - if ever processed. So, they can't do the right thing - as they would get the wrong result.

Its all about people who think too many brown people live here.
 
You could send Billions to help these people and I can honestly say they would never see a penny as the regimes in charge are that corrupt.

so then that would involve regime change in most of the countries these people are coming from. Are you suggesting we send in the armed forces?

Corruption is a tricky one - we are seen as more corrupt that Hong Kong and are now 20th in the world for transparency (going backwards).

Or course, some of the regimes you are referring to are pretty extreme.

There is a world problem here where millions of people are being displaced by war and tyranny. Much of it supported or ignored by the west.
We aren’t going to solve it on our own.

As an earlier poster said ‘The Boats’ are not the issue and the evidence supports that.
But, The Tory’s have done a number on the great British Public who think they are.

The numbers are insignificant to immigration in the UK

2023 - immigration increased to 1.4m
Around 40000 came on boats

Walk around central Middlesbrough - whatever your political persuasion you can’t think that the area has been enriched and improved by immigration.
Just an observation.
The town was built by imigrants, the overwhelming population desends from imigrants, or do you just mean the brown ones?
The biggest problem the town seems to have is the indigenous addicts , often committing crimes to fund the addiction

Or just the brown ones? Oh dear me no not just the brown ones.
I’m just saying what I see. The town centre is a horrendous scruffy and quite scary (particularly for women) dump. I don’t recognise the place or the population.
 
Flippin Immigrants!
Fighting with us against Hitler and his apparatchiks!
They come over here, fighting alongside our troops from Britain to fight the fascists!
Helping save the world from the abyss.
Let us remember the whole Commonwealth Forces served across the world, without whom the little British Isles might well have been sunk.

They served around the world, on land and sea.

Even our former convicts we sent to colonise the antipodes (y) Many fell fighting the Japanese Empire.

The British Army even had the Palestine [Infantry] Regiment fighting alongside British and Other Commonwealth troops in Egypt!

There was, until recently, a Cemetery in Gaza for those who fell in Egypt and Palestine.

Not forgetting the Indian and Commonwealth troops who fought in Burma, Malaya and the Far East!

Just be careful with that though
You see something - fine
Check the bigger picture - which is what you are being asked to do

The film version would be: 'Brexit 2: We Still Think You're Thick.'
 
How many people leave the UK to live elsewhere? Not in the news.

It is reported, but tends to get lost in the 'net' figure:

The provisional estimate of total long-term immigration for year ending (YE) June 2023 was 1.2 million, while emigration was 508,000, meaning that net migration was 672,000; most people arriving to the UK in the YE June 2023 were non-EU nationals (968,000), followed by EU (129,000) and British (84,000).

ONS Migration stats
 
Why is it that immigrant politicians hold the most abhorrent views on how we should treat asylum seekers?

Sunak, Braverman, Patel etc from the Tories and today we have Pakistani immigrant Ben Habib, deputy leader of Reform, saying we should just allow migrants to drown at sea.

WTF is wrong with these people?
 
Get treated by the staff at James Cook hospital and tell me that the area hasn’t been improved by immigration. Just an observation.
And I applaud that wholeheartedly who wouldn’t? I’m on about central Middlesbrough - the town I was born and grew up in.
