As is often the case with talkforum, the discussions about immigration go way beyond "expressing concern".

Is just the same old lazy immigrant-bashing contest by the lazy minded to make themselves feel righteous and superior.
Would you care to point those posts which contain immigrant bashing, self righteousness and superiority.

I'm quite happy to chalk up another win for you on the Internet either way, because as usual your posts are brimming with one eyed shite and incorrect information.

As far as I can make out Sweden is twice the size of the UK with about a sixth of the population of the UK. Now, there are many who would say, they have the space so let them in.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/ ... y-reversal

That article is eight years old and the Swedes went from having a completely open door policy to what they were obliged to take in. Besides the fact that 50% of Sweden is mostly uninhabitable, space or population density doesn't have a great deal to do with a countries ability to absorb and integrate people otherwise they'd be getting sent to Greenland.
Yes, I know it's 8 years old, and I did say it was at the same time that Merkel was opening Germany's doors. Germany was opening the doors and Sweden was closing them.
What was once un inhabitable can, often, be made habitable, and if you are fleeing whatever yo will take whatever refuge there is, habitable or not.

There are Instagram videos being posted in this thread for the purpose of making hyperbolic negative commentary on immigration. Videos portraying a dystopian view on the effects of immigration. That is a clear example of what I refer to.

You rejoice in uncontrolled and illegal immigration

You rejoice in the forced and permanent change in the demographics of a country
Mi tell you repeatedly that you have won

I post videos backing that up

Then you moan?

You know what you do on this forum? I do it too. And you don’t like it

The Instagram videos are a means of demeaning immigrants and immigration with wild conjecture and unfounded claims.

I respect that immigration is a process as old as humanity itself and find it a beneficial thing overall, with its ups and downs considered.

I agree. Paolo's videos have no context to them thus rendering them meaningless. The actions of a lost man flailing. D for the effort put in.

On the contrary, it takes a lot of effort, and probably time too, to dig out the often unpalatable truth. As for being out of context, as they relate to the title of the thread, I reckon they are in context, so it's an A* for effort and an A***** for pissing off certain people. :lol: :lol: :lol:

What was once un inhabitable can, often, be made habitable, and if you are fleeing whatever yo will take whatever refuge there is, habitable or not.
Lucky then for those desperate enough to make the journey the UK is still signed up to the refugee convention.

I wouldn't say it was immigrant bashing, but reaching reality. And your opinion is that the UK can just keep on taking people in ad infinitum..total madness

Why don't those desperate to escape, and there are many in genuine need, seek refugee status in the nearest safe country, instead of, often, paying thousands for a space on a rubber dinghy from a safe country.

+1

Possibly the benefits aren't as good in the nearest safe country.
