Surely if the were dumb they wouldn't have been speaking at all? Probably just grunting and waving their arms about.

Economically YES it does have a positive effect, but for your ordinary Joe ?

Not really, 50,000 cars on the road that dont need road tax, many uninsured, doctors/dentists getting harder to make appointments, police forces having to spend large sums of money on translators etc etc the list (and its not from the Daily Mail) just goes on and on and on.

By all means come here, you are very welcome, but learn the language, make the same contributions we have to, not just the ones you cant get away with, and for fucks sake who ever is in power you are quick to tell us we need them and even quicker to take their taxes, well start building the infrastructure that an influx requires, or the people that were born here will just get angrier and angrier.

Oh you racist, Well said

 

[cannedheat]

I think he's on a wind up.

The funny thing is, yesterday I was dealing with a Middle Eastern woman who'd suffered some vicious racial abuse while she was working at a Brighton fast food place.

Some random tramp-like bloke came into the restaurant, launched into a completely unwarranted tirade of racist filth at her, and ended up getting told to piss off by horrified customers.

The laughable thing about it is, the gist of his abuse was that she was responsible for this country going to the dogs, she was taking jobs away from "proper English" people, and she was a burden on the state.

This, from a bloke who has no job at all and spends his days sitting on benches swigging Special Brew and shoplifting.

Well done mate, well done

In my experience, the people who whine most about "foreigners" taking "British" jobs away are the ones who've either barely done an honest day's work in their life, or wouldn't be seen dead doing some of the jobs that migrant workers tend to take on (ie McDonalds, office cleaning, kebab shops, collecting trolleys for Tesco etc).

You can add "Goalkeeper for Palace" to that list...

Got it in one but you better keep quiet otherwise you will be accused of being a racist in your country.

I have no problem with anyone coming here, however I do have a problem when they are here illegally, or breaking our law. Driving around without proper Road tax or insurance. Its not fair on everyone that pays their way.

There may not be black in the union jack but don't forget that you, me and everyone else are descendants of Normans and Saxons who aggresively invaded the country anyway, so you my friend are not an indiginous Brit either.

Slough

Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough
It isn't fit for humans now,
There isn't grass to graze a cow
Swarm over, Death!

Come, bombs, and blow to smithereens
Those air-conditioned, bright canteens,
Tinned fruit, tinned meat, tinned milk, tinned beans
Tinned minds, tinned breath.

Mess up the mess they call a town --
A house for ninety-seven down
And once a week for half-a-crown
For twenty years,

And get that man with double chin
Who'll always cheat and always win,
Who washes his repulsive skin
In women's tears,

And smash his desk of polished oak
And smash his hands so used to stroke
And stop his boring dirty joke
And make him yell.

But spare the bald young clerks who add
The profits of the stinking cad;
It's not their fault that they are mad,
They've tasted Hell.

It's not their fault they do not know
The birdsong from the radio,
It's not their fault they often go
To Maidenhead

And talk of sports and makes of cars
In various bogus Tudor bars
And daren't look up and see the stars
But belch instead.

In labour-saving homes, with care
Their wives frizz out peroxide hair
And dry it in synthetic air
And paint their nails.

Come, friendly bombs, and fall on Slough
To get it ready for the plough.
The cabbages are coming now;
The earth exhales.

-- John Betjeman

[Uncle Spielberg]

Personally I blame this on Wilkins

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

My Malaysian partner has to put up with comments from Rascist scum on a daily basis just going about her day to day things and has been abused by pensioners at the post office and told to go back to her own country.

 

[readingstockport]

as well as contributing towards the depleting pension kitty I would imagine

You know it always intrigues me that whenever the pensions 'crisis' is mentioned it is always Brown's change to advance corporation tax and the like that is blamed. You know, the on ethat removed some 10 billion from pension funds. Strangely it's never the 25 billion pensions payment holidays that were collectively taken during the stock market boom period by the companies that is responsible.

I've never understood how brown removing 10 billion is to blame but greedy companies removing 25 billion are somehow blameless.

edit to add
I'm not suggesting that rool was being entirely serious in his suggestion or relating this to immigration at all, I am genuinely intrigued by it.
