    How many of these chaps should I invite for a free meal?
    Or does charity begin at home ?

    Ask yourself why they're in that state, almost always because of greedy, racist brits and other imperialists.

    The fact is, you still have a very capitalist view of it and obviously don't understand what I'm saying, what I'm saying is that the whole system is fundamentally wrong. Capitalists are self-centered and selfish, focused on their own gains and losses, you're asking how many you should invite for a meal. There should be no invitation needed, these people should be able to take what they need from the earth that they have an equal entitlement to, just as you do, you are not superior to them.

    Remember, nobody on this planet actually owns any land, at some point in time, someone decided that they own a particular piece of land, they usually enforced this with violence...as they'd have to since it's not the natural order of things and people would question it. These days people don't even question it because they've been manipulated into being materialist consumers that are obsessed with declaring themselves owners of rubbish products that nobody even needs and in fact, should not be created because the majority of them cause unnecessary harm. The extent of this obsession is like a religion, people don't worship god anymore, they worship products.

    Why do you insist on defending a system that doesn't care about you or anybody else that, regardless of skin colour, which part of the world they were born in or anything else is actually the same as you? If capitalism is so good and worth supporting, let me know when you get the 5 mansions, 10 sports cars and the private yacht that they promise you have the opportunity of getting, if only you're a good little slave and "work hard enough" for it.

    Being anti immigration isn't the same thing as being racist however many people who are anti-immigration are racist IME.

    Yes it is, immigration policies restrict the movements of human beings on a planet that they all have equal entitlement to, all based on where in the world they were born.

    Nothing as long as the roads and so on aren't chocca and as long as they are here to work and not claim ANY benefits or housing benefit.

    I like the Aussie points based system.

    Chap on LBC Radio used to live in Romania and was saying the Romany gypsies have been deliberately crippling babies ready to come to the UK in order to get claiming. Don't believe for a second this lie about being unable to claim.

    The South East is already full (roads, hospitals, schools, parking facilities etc)so hopefully they will be shipped up North.

    Oh how terrible would that be, what an awful life you'd have in that situation. How dare anyone take away your cars, iphones and other destructive junk that nobody needs? Isn't that just the most disgusting act ever?

    Idiot. Put yourself in their position for a moment, just imagine that you're these people.

    The system won't reward you for your loyalty, you should realise that.

    Was that a broadcaster or somebody phoning in? Can you remember how long ago that was aired?

    Why do you want Romania to loose part of it's working population?
    How selfish and greedy of you. Don't they need thier own people to keep up domestic demand?

    I dislike the very busy roads these days, the way it can take ages to get anywhere, all the wildlife killed.

    I also dislike the fact we're pushing wild Britain into ever smaller confines, surrounding habitats with concrete and fumes.


    Humans are the greatest pest on the planet.


    I suppose Aussies are all idiots to, for only wanting people with skills and or capital to bring to the party.

    Lastly how selfish that you want to deprive the 2.5m unemployed Brits even further.

    Was last week - I cannot remember the time tho.
    Was also discussed this morning between 9 and 10. That was interesting in parts to.

    The French and others have had big issues with Romany's, which is of course an un PC thing to utter (I'm pro gay marriage and some call me pc btw), and I just know they will be adept at claiming everything under the sun.

    I have a letting agency in my offices here and it really riles us when we keep hearing this neave view it's hard / impossible for new arrivals to claim. It just isn't. Throw in a few kids, maybe say your husband beats you and bingo, the welfare world is your lobster


    There's a reason so many want to get through Europe and into Britain, and it ain't the weather or the food.

    I'm particularly in awe of that piece of statistical 'misunderstanding'

    Not occur to you that you should be dividing the EU contingent in Britain by the number of EU countries since you did the same with british emigrants to the rest of the EU?

    I suggest you read again what I posted and then sit down and have a think before telling me I am wrong.
