I took it to mean at present we don't have the infrastructure to support immigration, is there an issue with that?

I can not believe people are defending ron by saying that it was totally acceptable in his era.I am a 41yr old Afrikaner who grew up during apartheid in SA where even my time in school was based on teaching me of how superior I was to "Kaffers".I doubt very much if I was to come on here making racist comments it would be acceptable because of the era I grew up in.

An excellent point, if I may say so.

It was not acceptable 10 years ago that is why he was sacked. People are defending him because it was 10 years ago & some people did say things like that then.

We are not defending him for what he did.
He paid the price for using words that one group of people call themselves and that is deemed ok.
He apologised and never used the words again. Therefore it should be laid to rest.
CBB enjoy noteriety and they did not need to choose the scarf incident on the show. That to me is likely to cause more unrest putting it on air.
It should have been dealt with in a different way.

They didn't need to show carols N word incident either, I'm at a loss to what their logic is for not showing the towel incident but airing the warning.
Is it for figures, is it to prove something?

Is something funny, maybe you'd like to share it with the group?

[Kizzy]

There's a lot of sniggering going on today.

I was going to make a joke about wearing black face but then I remembered my username is not Jesus so I would probably get a infraction for it

That just places you in the 99%. Nothing wrong with being ordinary, Roy.

With the current birthrates of muslims outnumbering by 3 to 1 the births of others, in 25 years we will be outnumbered in the electorate in this country. Therefore outvoted and radicalised. Lets see who the racists are then.

I plan on dying in 24 years time to specifically avoid this catastrophic conclusion.

Might want to avoid popping up three days later, if things are that bad.

Can you imagine a Jew coming back under Sharia law? Talk about a plot twist. The only man crucified twice in 4 days.

Is this a serious comment?

[DanaC]

... ok.

[Kyle]

Something politicians need to learn is that instead of shouting down people as racist or UKIP voters or uneducated xenophobes for having concerns about mass immigration, maybe being more diplomatic and tactile would help. Instead people feel like they are being belittled and not listened to and it fosters resentment. UKIP is not a party I identify with but it gains support from the disgruntled because of it.

[the truth]

this country is brainless.....talk about over reactions to trivial nonsense.
something massive happens and it gets less coverage than a a throwaway lin

[DanaC]

People keep talking about 'the muslims' versus 'our soldiers'.

There are muslims serving in the British Army.

[DanaC]

Countries don't go to war because they want to help other countries. They go to war because they think it will be beneficial to them (by whatever criteria they're measuring that).

And Livia, those figures were spot on. The death toll during the Shock and Awe attack alone was staggering.

[DanaC]

Yep. And we're so tiny in fact, that we can't even accommodate the handful of Iraqis who acted as our interpreters over there and who now face persecution and reprisals for that assistance.

I don't have to answer your questions.

We're not talking about Israel here, just because I'm a Jew you drag Israel into it? The opinions I have are nothing to do with my religion and everything to do with my being the widow of a British soldier.

what about the widows of the 100s of thousands who died out there, figures you wrongly disputed. You also preach about the violence out there in the middle east, why don't you preach the same against Israeli brutality?
