Mass immigration, people 'sailing' the English Channel on Lilos using Spades as Oars in a desperate attempt to get here. Hiding in refrigerated trucks, cramped into small dangerous spaces. Parents giving every last penny so their child can be smuggled in. This is not to mention the mass legal immigration.
Im not patriotic, im an anti-royalist, i do not vote (never have) as i've never felt strongly enough either way. However, a lot of people go around saying how awful Britain is, how poorly run the country is, and of course it's far from perfect, we have many many flaws, but is it really that bad? Something is drawing in millions, from all walks of life. |

I'm not sure of this but I heard basically we give them a house, benefits and free health care.
Not sure you get that over in say Poland.

"If this country is so terrible why do so many risk their lives to get here?"
They get cash , a home, so much more than nasty France would give any of them. We are working to get them sent back to France every day it just a matter of paying France more Cash |

We're not 'too loving' but that doesn't change the fact we will house single mothers, those unable to work, offer a decent chance at an education and a chance to make a good life for yourself. Hence why i say, this country isn't at all as bad as some people like to make out.

Any benefits we pay out to asylum seekers is basically chicken feed, when compared to the like of Rees-Mogg hiding his money from the tax man, taking millions out of the UK, and yet no one says he's a scrounger.

You seem jealous as you always mention his business success?

Nah

Because it's Europe/Australia/North America and it's safer than their country.
In their eyes, it's better than where they come from. And really if they had the choice they would rather stay, and not risk their lives. But the economic and political aspects really don't give them a choice. |

Yes, it's jealousy rather than fairness that's the issue
