Never in all my life have I seen a thread full of so many "sh*tholes" references. I LOVE IT.

To go shopping and find myself feeling like a stranger in my own country. The town which once people came for miles on coachloads to visit the market is now a filthy town and this saddens me. Please don't patronise me and be condescending, you may be more intelligent than me but that doesn't make you a better person than me. The country today makes me and many many others sad.

What percentage of your town are British? What percentage of your town should be British?

Would that suggest that a lot of Brits from your town feel the opposite way to you?

I have no qualms about any colour marrying another colour, what I don't agree with is coming here, gaining citizenship then sodding off to the country they left to bring them over to this country. Where does it end. Why do they not concentrate on building their own infrastructure and then they can live in their homeland. It is only a matter of time before we are well overcrowded. We are already suffering with the nhs because of the resources being way stretched.

The NHS is struggling because the government are refusing to fund it properly.

Out of interest, what is the statistics for Brits marrying foreigners just so they can get citizenship and move their extended family over?

Nope and nope, neither are anything to do with immigration.

Affordable homes have been sold off and replaced with houses costing hundreds of thousands...

And the NHS has had it's main sources of income sold off, as up to a couple of years ago it was in profit.

Please do some research.

I watched the Katie Hopkins one (god help me) and what she's saying just isn't true. I was in Westminster today and people aren't cowed and afraid. She's talking as if she's speaking on behalf of Londoners when really she's just giving the Fox News audience what they want to hear. it's a performance and she's an expert at sounding convincing, I'll give her that, but what she's actually saying is rubbish. There's a reason they chose to have her as their correspondent rather than someone credible, they don't want to provide factual news, they want to push an agenda, and for a price she'll say whatever they want her to.

me not knowing the statistics for this doesn't take away the fact that it happens and it will keep happening. Lets just open the gates, let every single person come into our small island that wants to come in......where will it end? Overcrowding. It can't carry on. There is a reason so many people want to come to this country, yes, I am proud to live in Great Britain but I don't want to live in Great World, why is that wrong of me to think like this? My dad is 84 years old, a very well educated, intelligent man and he told me, "I have lived a long time and never in my life have I seen it as bad as it is today" He is surrounded by people from another country and culture and cannot see the faces of the people walking by. No one gives him the time of day where he lives, he isn't used to that, he is used to people stopping in the streets to talk to him, friendliness, neighbourly people, he has none of this anymore and this upsets him.

Anecdotal evidence is pointless unless backed up with real facts.

Tozzie many people feel that way which is why immigration is such a discussion point right now. Parts of Britain don't look like Britain anymore but some would try to convince us that is a good thing and we should all be excited about multiculturism because they say so. It isn't working - hence Brexit.

We are all entitled to our opinions and you are far from being alone in yours.

Yeah you don't need statistics to back up the people you know who have done it. That's true.

But to make put it's a major problem the country is facing overall, that requires facts and figures beyond people you personally know.

Marsh. 27-03-2017 10:12 PM

Well the people I deal with around where I live on a daily basis are all British, mostly white and I can see their faces clearly and most of them don't stop to chat, being all neighbourly.

That's not an immigrant problem. That's a "everyone's hooked on their phones" problem imo.

It's not the 1950s anymore in more ways than one.

Tozzie 27-03-2017 11:47 PM

My final post on this subject is I am glad I am on my out and not on my way in. I am sad how my country has ended up.

I think everything going on at the moment demonstrates it is a major problem. You'd have to be blind in more ways than one not to see that. And it isn't for an idealistic and inexperienced youth to tell everyone else the way things should be.

Who are this inexperienced youth telling everyone else how it should be?

You think everything going on at the moment demonstrates Brits marrying foreigners to get them and their families citizenship is a major problem?

Or have you entered a discussion without double checking the context of certain posts and just responded?

Liberty4eva 28-03-2017 06:45 AM

Katie Hopkins on Tucker again responding to JK Rowling. Britain needs to listen to Tucker. :laugh:

It doesn't prove anything, TS is just speaking from his experience, he has posted no facts to back it up, he hasn't been asked to produce a 2011 census to back up his claims of a town practically full of white Brits which coincidentally happens to be a ****hole, how convenient :laugh: yet it is accepted as fact, while Tozzie has to back up all her post with facts and figures, only on TiBB :pipe: I'm an immigrant but I can see that not all immigrants contribute in a positive way to the community same as all natives don't, to claim otherwise is absurd
