And on top of that we could actually take our fair share of refugees. clearly for a person to be so desperate they must be facing terrible persecution or they wouldn't risk their lives to get here. We are nowhere near as 'full' or 'overpopulated' as people make out. For the lack of housing, blame the tories for building far too little houses. Immigrants are being demonised to smokescreen their lack of sensible policy.

Firstly, you don't know where the dead person was from so it's a bit rich to use the "we're bombing their country" accusation. You have no idea of the way we bomb or why so how you've come to the conclusion it's reckless is pure fantasy on your part. Moreover, we take our fair share of genuine refugees in this country, quite rightly. We're a small island though, we can't take them all. And incidentally, expecting the Tories to have built enough homes for everyone in the last five years is laughable.
