Touch! I knew the universal rule of criticising someone else's writing would get me in the end. However, I hope it does not detract from the underlying argument. Someone who's posts look like they were written by a Nigerian scammer probably shouldn't be knocking the ability of those they are supposed to be teaching

And not forgetting our Commonwealth Army who numbered almost 1,000,000 non-British by 1944.
But of course, don't let facts get in the way of xenophobia.
People like you crack me up!!
Poland let me remind you was the first country to be invaded by Hitler, if that was not a good enough reason to fight for their own freedom then I do not know what is. But still, I have stayed at the Union Jack club and applauded the Polish 2nd world war vets along with the Sikhs and Gurkhas
"Xenophobia and racist", what a cop out, feeble arguments to shut up any debate on immigration.
Do you know what Pal, you and people like you with your fake political correctness are the new facists of the 21st century.
There are also some beautiful and amazing cultures that have survived around the planet, I would also fight tooth and nail to prevent their demise from an influx of western money making institutions, and have done so in the past.0 -

You're unable to back-up any of your statements with facts or figures, so we have objectively come to the conclusion that you have xenophobic and racist opinions. That's what it boils down to really: you don't like immigrants because you blame them for the short-comings in your life. Just like you blame the government in your other threads.
I actually don't have a problem with that at all. Racism, for me, is actively disciminating against a specific ethnic group. You don't seem to be putting your racist opinions into action, other than making yourself seem a bit silly on an internet forum."Beware of little expenses.

You "stayed at the Union Jack Club"????
Wow, you must be really "British" then. Your mum must be so proud.
With all your talk of "fighting" for this country, you must have a pretty long and illustrious career in the Armed Forces. Care to enlighten us about your bravado?Nothing is foolproof, as fools are so ingenious!

Why mention it if it has no relevance?
I didn't mention it. At no point did I ever I state that. You asked the question:Are you saying that we should only allow immigrants from countries that supported us in wars?
I had no idea what you were on about then, as I had never stated this. And to be honest, I've no idea what you're on about now.
As I have served with Jews, Muslims, South Africans, Maltese, Jamaicans, Tongans and many other creeds and colours, I took issue with homelessskilledworkers xenophobic rubbish. (And that's what it is - utter rubbish).
This country has a long and proud history of being inclusive, and those who have come to this country have generally integrated well, and many of those have served this country with pride.
It's an internet forum, so feel free to have a go at me or side with xenophobic armchair warriors like homlessskilledworker.
It would however, be helpful if you were a bit clearer. I might have some idea what you're on about then.Nothing is foolproof, as fools are so ingenious!

To be fair the BNP are a descendant of Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists, so it's not a massive leap. However the BNP are so astonishingly disorganised, that even if the British people's views did fall in line with theirs (not likely IMO), I doubt they'd get anywhere near power.0
