    Personally I think they are closely linked. Both, whilst pretty much irrelevant are used to generalise whole communities and to justify anti-British or anti-Muslim sentiments.

    Open Heart Surgery

    I'm beginning to think I may be in the same position. Had an angiogram two weeks ago in Redhill - this confirmed that one artery is totally blocked, one badly blocked and the other partially blocked. Last Wednesday at Redhill they attempted the insertion of a stent but this failed and I was...

    The 'mistake' you are making with all the examples you give is that they are all examples of calls to increase the 'home' population with the exception of that made by Houari Boumédienne, which in any case was a prediction rather than the advocacy of a strategy. There seems to be a general...

    No need to wait really - Try Googling "Sheikh Muhammad Ayed" - all I can find are references to his 'speech' in Jerusalem the other day yet he is described in many reports as a "top Imam" - if he's that important why no references to his previous activities. Sounds more like the rants of...

    Surprised to note, as well as being pleased to see, that the electronic advertising wasn't being used.

    Of course all nations should lend a hand but was the 'Good Samaritan' wrong to stop and help because so many others had passed by on the other side of the road?

    You also asked, "So far no one has answered the question....why Europe..why are they being allowed to come into Europe when there is Arabia..North Africa..the whole of Asia to send them to..." - which is what I answered :)

    [Misc] Bellend

    Both the Evo driver and the motorcycle driver ignored road markings indicating that the lane they were in was for right turns only - the motorcycle also appeared to ignore the 'wait' line marked on the road - both donuts! Why is it that when motorbikes 'filter' through a queue at traffic lights...

    Could it possibly be that the general population of Europe has an ethos developed since the end of WWII based on helping others worse off than themselves? ???

    No, they go one step further and have the British monarch as their Head of State!

    LuaLua is the dirtiest player in the Championship

    I'd be interested to know how many yellows opposition players have received for tackles on Kaz ??? It may be just my perception but he does seem to 'tempt' the opposition into 'unwise' tackles.

    The idea of 'scooping' up poor Africans to bring them to the UK is not the best solution - far better for that same air force to deliver aid, practical and financial to the areas in which the poor are living. If however you are suggesting that our air force could be used to help those directly...

    There are practical ways to help those in the World experiencing famine, disease and poverty in their own country and I do support this personally as well as supporting the UK's foreign aid programme - unlike many who as well as taking an anti-immigration stance also oppose almost any level of...

    From the interviews I have seen with refugees they don't see their escape as risking their children's lives but rather an attempt to save them from a likely death. Merkel has gone some way towards advocating a policy of spending money to help these people and has her popularity suffered? ???

    What of the thousands of lives that may be saved by providing a safe haven for those fleeing from the civil war in Syria as well as ISIS attacks. The numbers who die whilst attempting to leave, whilst tragic, pales into insignificance compared to the deaths of those who can't get away.

    On the face of it quite a reasoned response but there is one major flaw with the argument that refugees should claim asylum in the first EU country they enter, (an EU requirement incidentally and not a UN one which allows a refugee to choose when and where to claim asylum). That flaw is that...

    In the short term that is undoubtedly true. What is often forgotten though is that economic growth only derives from two factors, natural resources and manpower. As a country we have few natural resources and the vast majority of our income and potential growth comes from the labour market...

    [Albion] Did Chris Hughton do the right thing with his Walsall team selection?

    This idea that players shouldn't be risked in case of injury is just so much 'flannel'. If it were a valid argument then exactly the same argument could be made and players wouldn't be 'risked' against weaker opposition in the League. I can appreciate it when players are 'rested' and squad...
