Your straight talking would be welcome in Parliament I'd vote for you! I'd love to change the place of birth box on forms to "where did you fall out of your Mum's puss"
You think Syria isn't a serious situation?
And where's your data about their ages?
And most Syrians are fleeing to Turkey despite what the press in this country say.
Apparently it is not unusual to have people sneaking in on boats anyway. Nothing new. There have been more in past years, but, it is being made into a crisis although the numbers are insignificant.
Why? It seems to be a distraction.
To some, 'leftie'='not racist' it seems.by the way. I’m a leftie and proud and genuinely laugh at the fact that it is starting to become a slur.
To some, 'leftie'='not racist' it seems.
In which case, slur away!
I never said anything about Syria, my question was what is so bad about mainland Europe that they choose to put their own life in danger to make the crossing to the UK.

Surely the problem isn't whether you are right or left, the problem is only when you are far right or far left.
They aren't illegal until deemed illegal. Until then they get food, shelter, medical treatment, legal representation, education for their kids.What do illegal immigrants get for free exactly in this country?

Totally agree. Same with me.The problem is if you are a c**t. It’s as simple as that.
I’ve got right wing and left wing mates and essentially it’s all nonsense.
But Syria is an example of a situation they're fleeing
Some are then trying to make it to the UK, not actually many.
And as far as im concerned we have a duty to do as we interfered in the affairs of a sovereign state and went as far as backing ISIS affiliates.
That is something I do agree with to a degree, I don't think we should be getting involved into other countries issues. I also think we should be funding refugee camps in neighbouring countries, so they have a safe destination and so they don't have to travel to western Europe.
Or as my daughter says it, noice!I agree to an extent but we should probably have a pop at stopping genocide and stuff if we can. Nice to be nice.
Been at the fast show box sets?Or as my daughter says it, noice!
She's never watched it. She got it from school.Been at the fast show box sets?
She's never watched it. She got it from school.
She does now go to a school in Birmingham though.

I think you're confusing migrants with illegal immigrants. I doubt the staff at hospitals came across the channel in a dingy, and I doubt anyone with half a brain would think the same. They're legal. The issue is the illegals.I was there, Coventry University Hospital, early hours of 28.12 . A&E. There were lots of immigrants and people of immigrant descent. They were the staff. Some spoke with accents. My mother was treated really well and I would hate to see how it would work, ( it wouldn’t), if you removed all staff of migrant descent or migrants. All those people were legal and paying tax into the pot. Without them the pot would be smaller.
Not disgraceful, but someone has to pay for it.Fucking disgraceful isn’t it.
Spend a day with me in Spon End then..You do understand that the minute an illegal immigrant makes their presence known to the U.K. authorities they are detained then extradited. They don’t get benefits, they don’t get given a free house that has an 18 plate car sat in the garage, they don’t get a daily delivery of the latest TV.

It's not me, I don't live in the UK any more.
Do you ever think about the comments you make before you press the send button?I don't believe in a borderless world but I believe we should strive to create a world where people don't feel the need to risks their lives crossing oceans in a dinghy.
Are they coming here from a safe country? Were they already safe? Does this make them illegal immigrants?Everyone's against it, surely.
Refugees is a different matter, but illegal immigrants, surely no-one supports ilillegal immigrants trying to get into the country.
Read back on comments made. Those crossing the channel are supposed to be escaping war and famine. Countless comments similar have been made. They have gone through safe countries to risk their lives crossing the channel. Yes it makes them illegal immigrants wherever they have come from.Erm... Westendlad was talking about illegal immigrants in Spon End getting benefits.
I don't quite get the point you are making.
People coming across in dinghys and boats and not going through the proper legal channels are illegal.
I've said we are all against that. We are, aren't we?
Do you ever think about the comments you make before you press the send button?
They have travelled from France. They have no need to risk their lives to get to freedom. They are economic migrants. They have travelled through several countries that are safe before getting into that unsafe dinghy.
You preach to us how good the EU is. You preach to us how bad it will be for us to leave the EU. Yet people are risking their lives to get away from a safe place with a great future to get to a place that is supposed to be about to crash and burn if you believe what some say.
It doesn't matter. Keep up with your point scoring. Considering all the facts doesn't really matter these days. Because if you do consider all the facts it means you hate the EU and have no compassion for those from the rest of the world.

Why do they go past the South of France and think bollocks to that we want to get to a big city in the UK?
The way round it is to take out the smugglers and make it clear that the risk of getting in a dhingy isn't worth it as they will just be rejected.
At the minute is just a case of get so far out into the channel and get picked up.
Saw on the news earlier the majority are Kurds from Iran.
