Has maestro got his house back then?

Overall what exactly has immigration done for the good of the country? Do newcomers come to give or simply to take? The saying goes if they're not the solution they must be the big problem. And how many of the governing body actually fought in the last war giving them the right to give away the country to the immigrants?Naomi Campbell called police white f**king honkeys, thats not a racist remark against white britsbecause there is no such thing! Are we Pommie bastardyes all in good fun!

Look what folk around the world think of usand as that famous humanitarian Dil said yesterdaydoes my face look bovvered and this is taking the piss out of the English only.

All Englishmen talk as if they've got a bushel of plums stuck in their throats, and then after swallowing them get constipated from the pips.
W. C. Fields, US film star, quoted in D. Waliechinsky, The 20th Century, 1995

From every Englishman emanates a kind of gas, the deadly choke-damp of boredom.
Heinrich Heine, German poet

A demon took a monkey to wife the result by the Grace of God was the English.
Indian saying

Pass a law to give every single whingeing bloody Pommie his fare home to England. Back to the smoke and the sun shining ten days a year and shit in the streets. Yer can have it.
Thomas Keneally, Australian writer, The Chant of Jimtnie Blacksmith, 1972

We know of no spectacle so ridiculous as the British public in one of its periodical fits of morality.
Thomas Babington Macaulay, British historian, in the Edinburgh Review, June 1831

The English, who eat their meat red and bloody, show the savagery that goes with
such food.
J. O. de la Mettrie, French philosopher
To learn English you must begin by thrusting the jaw forward, almost clenching the teeth, and practically immobilizing the lips. In this way the English produce the series of unpleasant little mews of which their language consists.
Jose Ortega y Gasset, Spanish essayist and philosopher

The English are ... perfidious and cunning, plotting the destruction of the lives of foreigners, so that even if they humbly bend the knee, they cannot be trusted.
Leo de Rozmital

An Englishman does everything on principle: he fights you on patriotic principles; he robs you on business principles; he enslaves you on imperial principles.
George Bernard Shaw, Irish playwright and critic, The Man of Destiny, 1898

The English public takes no interest in a work of art until it is told that the work in question is immoral.
Oscar Wilde

Answer
A damn sight more than you would care to admit, and the majority contribute hugely, if you actually stopped to think for a change instead of coming up with a load of prejudiced polemic and century-old jingoism

cynic - how very true, but then that seems to be the way with some folk. They see what they want to see.

Cynicas usual you are missing the pointif foreigners entered the country with the correct paperworka job to go toaccommodation organisedand financedas they do in AustraliaI would welcome them with open armsas I have with Rafand Sammyfor many yearsthey are just as sick of the foreign scroungers and villainsas I am. Immigration failed many years ago!

Interesting that not one person among the many posters on these boards (myself included) have offered Maestro a bed for the night. I can think of many foreign communities where help would have been a lot more forthcoming. Says something about our britishness methinks.

Not too long ago, our own head of immigration was found out to be an illegal.
