Gosh I just remembered. I wasn't born in the UK myself. I am in immigrant!

Hahaha, I occupy a house, and in a bit I am going to turn on a tap and drain away some of the good English mains water that should be reserved for English citizens. I even have the temerity to send my child to a school. Where they sit on a seat that should be reserved for proper British children.

Gosh, I may as well go the whole hog now. Tomorrow I am going to sit on a bus and pay 8 quid to go half a mile in a seat that should, by the right of God be reserved for a proper English, UKIP voting boomer with a final salary pension, a bus pass and a tele license I have to pay for out of my taxes.

Doubtless when Clapton and Conrad catch up with me I will have some kind of star sewn onto my clothes, but in the meantime I am going to keep milking the UK for all it is worth. Its tiny expensive houses, its astoundingly high student loans, its awful health service I can't opt out of, its potholed roads, and its friendly, generous, UKIP voting people, who really just make this place an unmissable tourist destination.

:rotfl:

when you are sitting on your bus you could reflect on the difference between a reasonable population and an unlimited population.
However, reflection and reasonablenes are foreign lands to you.

Oh a foreign land! Well I love foreign lands. You see as an immigrant as soon as I find out about a new one I descend on it with all my immigrant friends like a swarm of locusts. We're physically unable to stop ourselves you see. We are just unable not to migrate, irrespective of what awaits us or whether there is anything there when we get there.

No foreign land stands a chance with us around, we get jobs, pay taxes, participate in government. Its a blood bath.

And the one we most want to go to is England. Its something about the name. England, and all the biscuit tins, and UKIP voters. There is simply no where else. We are all flooding in, in a swarm, a veritable invasion. Its like the Vikings but worse. Marvellous.

Tensions apparently growing on the EU negotiating side, gfplux`s EU unity lasted all of 5 minutes!

It comes amid claims by former Belgian prime minister Guy Vehofstadt, who is leading the European Parliament's Brexit taskforce, that it could start separate negotiations with the UK unless EU leaders take "its role seriously".

You should be grateful to Conrad, Clappers et al.
Brexit will distance vunerable immigrants like you from the worst excesses of far right mainland Europe, call it a welcome bi-product of the historically ultra-liberal UK re-establishing its sovereignty.
Even the Leftist Remainiac`s poster-girl Frau Merkel is pandering to her burgeoning fascist problem by calling for a ban on the burqa.
Its never far from the surface with them Europeans.

why not give your own view

do you favour discriminating in favour of the people of predominately white christian european countries and against those of the rest of the world or do you agree with me that this is wrong, xenophobic and racist?

In principal, yes I do.

I also believe it makes sense to draw on the experience and cultural similarities of our European neighbours, thus giving rise to what you could see as a racist preferance.

In reality though, as anyone with 28.34g of common sense can see, it really isn't racist at all.

I did not comment on exports at all. I was just making a tongue in cheek comment on what those wanting to leave the EU expect, namely control over EU immigration even though we do not control non-EU immigration.

The common accusation is that immigration would dry up if we stopped FoM in the process of leaving the EU.

This is nonsense. In fact, it does a disservice to the billions of the people from around the world who would be quite happy to come here.

You can share experience on a different basis though.

Take Indian IT workers. In the mid 90s the majority coming here had a moustache; being slightly fat was a sign of wealth; the experience of being in the UK was still new.

Move forward just 2 decades and things have changed so much. They take a keen interest in UK events, and barely a day passes without a new story on FB covering Indian politics appearing on my screen.

Globalization has changed things in many ways.

your post could be used as a text book case of racial discrimination and self delusion.

What's the difference between 'discriminating' against non-Europeans and discriminating against non native born Brits?

It's odd that you see one as racism but the other as pragmatism.

And as someone who's lived in the UK for the most part of 25 years, would you consider me closer to someone in France, or in India?

That's not meant to be/sound racist, someone mentioned India further up the page and France is pretty close.
