Just because something doesn't affect you, doesn't make it ok.

Who mentioned voting?

:joker: And what the **** would you know about who I vote for or my reasons?

Try harder.

Principles and morals may be alien concepts to you. Not to others.

What about over 100k people who died from austerity? Experts say locking down 1 week earlier would have halved the covid deaths.

Have they been affected by who's in government?

They said they were leaving it way too long at the time.

Them being proven right isn't "hindsight".

Really? All I hear is right wing gammons ranting about how this country is crap because we spend too much on aid, not enough on bombs while pissing on memorials.

The only person moving the goalposts are yourself, tbh with all this whataboutism.

He asked me what the problems were and I responded.

I think the reasons are probably obvious, but it's not because of benefits. It's more likely that it's easier to integrate in the UK than most other places and there's things like relatives and connections to consider.

I think most refugees and immigrants will settle in the first safe country they can but I think the idea that they only come here for benefits is a damaging stereotype.

Posting this from George square earlier today, so Parmy can come and tell us it's antifa again.

Even our high rate of terror attacks/incidents isn't a deterrent. However for all the praise we give the UK, the way we deal with terrorists and terrorism as a whole is pretty pathetic.

Not really, three terror attacks already this year, Islam inspired of course because that's norm in this country.

Fastest-growing UK terrorist threat is from far right, say police

Since 2017 39 people killed by Islamic Terrorists in the UK, 1 persons killed by Far Right Terrorist.

It may be the fastest-growing threat, but it certainly isn't the biggest threat we face.
