Daily Express front page headline tomorrow:

‘MIGRANTS WILL BE TURNED BACK TO FRANCE’

Followed by:

‘HISTORY MAKER! Emma storms into US Open semi-finals!’

Emma Raducanu was born in Canada, to a Romanian father and a Chinese mother. Her family moved to London when she was two.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Did they migrate legally or did they invade the country?
---------------------------------------------------------------------Who, in your eyes, are more worthy of and ultimately dependent on open arms, and compassionate care and assistance:

- a couple of already independently very wealthy financiers and their daughter, economic migrants from Canada, or

- a couple of people without a penny in the world arriving in a sinking boat, who have travelled for months, sleeping under motorway underpasses and being reliant on handouts to feed themselves, having escaped a war-torn country?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If it were up to me I would accept hundreds of thousands of refugees the next day. It would all be done via the correct methods though and I would reject anyone who breaks into the country.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How would you like them to arrive, ideally, bearing in mind the fact that they cannot apply for asylum until they’re on British soil?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope this gets responded to, considering that all routes have been blocked off.

Just to clarify. The UK shouldn't get involved in foreign countries politics but should let anyone in from any country that has nut jobs running the show.

😂😂
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Its the other way around. Are you ready for more refugees after what happened in Afghanistan? Have a look at the countries producing nearly all asylum seekers. What do they have in common?

This should and will be a lesson that facking up other countries won't leave you unscathed. The actions of some countries are directly to blame for the migrant crisis, the same countries that make the most noise when a couple of people manage to cross the border.

Stop the strife and the immigrant crisis will disappear in a few decades. You think people from Syria want to freeze their arris off in England? They'd prefer they didn't have to.

Time for electorates to start electing proper leaders and putting pressure on them to act in the actual interest of mankind instead of oil or minerals or money. People too concerned about the cost of their next obesity inducing double burger leaving the corrupt to run wars and create market for their bombs and tanks.

Insert.

You again said I lack opinion and "post contrary", but I have given one or two opinions over the years here.

And I cannot access your Current Events thread when logged on, so am I cancelled for not having an opinion, lol?

Or the gremlins out again?

I do not want to post on your thread btw, but just letting you know the score.

My quest for balance will continue regardless.

Imagine threads only attacking Liverpool hooliganism, drunkenness among fans, sick chants, vulgar spending, dodgy owners, crap players, etc and not mentioning Utd or Chelsea too....you would be # balance ballistic.🤣
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Firstly, as I have already said, you aren't on my filter (i couldn't respond to you) and I haven't deleted anyone from the thread.

Secondly I seek no pretence of balance on the thread, it's not the BBC and I don't expect people to play devil's advocate, it's in the rules that you post honestly, it avoids arguments.

Finally the last paragraph happens pretty much constantly, more than it doesn't. If I decided to go to the utd board to point out how tactically inept Ole is, I wouldn't feel a need to post every other tactically I won't manager I've ever witnessed. It's a silly point to try and make really.

Refugees as of end 2020

Syrian Arab Republic 6.7 million
Venezuela 4.0 million
Afghanistan 2.6 million
South Sudan 2.2 million

I don't think it's all the UKs fault.

Mamba was obviously referring to asylum seekers entering this country when saying this “ Have a look at the countries producing nearly all asylum seekers. What do they have in common?”

I suspect JS knew that already

Where do asylum-seekers in the UK come from?

Amongst adults, Iran was the top nationality claiming asylum in the UK in the year ending March 2021.

The top five countries of nationality for asylum applications (from main applicants) were:  Iran  (3,523), Albania  (2,840), and Eritrea  (2,373),  Iraq (2,125) and Sudan (1913).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How many of those countries have the U.K. been involved with?

It would be interesting to see which of those list of countries have had war in the last 10 years, and with whom, then look at the military industrial complex to see who supplied weapons to either side, the. Address Thorgs *ACTUAL* point about wars being manufactured to sell arms.

Perhaps if we banned the international sale of arms, to anyone but NATO countries, and NATO grew a pair, and intervened in places where atrocities are happening , this need for migration would end.

As an example, NATO / UN should have taken over in Afghanistan decades ago to allow most UK/US troops to withdraw, to provide free and fair elections, and to aid in combatting the corruption that lead to the fall of the state.

If these places are habitable, you will get less migrants.

Sooooo, we will ignore the elephant?

Which elephant?

You listed which countries produced the most refugees GLOBALLY, so my response was with regards to global organisations.

If you have pivoted to UK only asylum, that's just a different conversation
