    That makes me feel physically sick. The very people who demand to be accepted & not discriminated against show such bigotry & discrimination to others.

    There is huge discrimination, these foriegners live 18 people to a three bed house.

    They can always leave (please do). Priority should be given to the indigenous population – especially those who pay taxes and have contributed a great deal to society (without constantly expecting to benefit from others), including those who have never earned very much and are now in very poor health, for example.

    We have to go to the police st again tomorrow because the school told them that we smack our kids as part of discipline.........

    We have had social services around several times now.

    As far as I can see the law is its ok to smack with a hand on appropriate occasions, but the cane is not allowed anymore?
    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.

    The mixing is fine - it's mixing with backward savages who treat women like chattel & second class citizens & think it's fine to discriminate & even assault people based on their sexuality I personally have a problem with.

    There is a militant backward group of Islam that has some disgusting ideas about women & gay people.


    it was the same here 50 years ago, do you call your grandparents backwards militant group of christain/athesists with disgusting ideas about gays and women?

    that's fine then : you won't defend your family, friends or standard of living as it is but a single tick and you and yours a total irrelevancy.
    I however, see my family, friends and what is mine as worth quite a lot.



    we are all family. religion and science says the same, take your pick, we are descendants of adam and eve or are all from one tribe (and specifically one woman*) which left Africa about 50,000 years ago



    *all humans apart from south sahara Africans are though to be descendants of one woman who left africa about 50,000 years ago. The evidence for this is that all non south sahara Africans share this one genetic mutation thought to be from one woman. mother to about 6 billion humans alive today and even the other 1 billion humans are her great nieces and nephews

    what do you mean?

    Im not preaching for you to do anything. I am just pointing out that if you are religious then most religions say we are all descendants of adam and eve or similar. If you are not religious then science suggests 6/7ths of us are descendants from this one woman who left africa about 50,000 years ago and the other 1/7th are the nieces and nephews of that woman


    So going back to your 'I however, see my family, as worth quite a lot.'
    needs to be changed to something along the lines of..
    'I however, see my direct family, as worth quite a lot, and my distant family, as worth very little'

    Nothing has been fixed since 2008, it was just pushed into the future

    am aware of the science.

    does it affect your view of immigration, distribution of income, tolerance of religious based killing, homophobia, the EU, nuclear weapons or any other social matter, global warming, the price of oil, scottish independence ?
