Referendum : to be in Europe or not to be ?, that is the question ! (REF)     

required field - 03 Feb 2016 10:00

Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

i didn't say that, much as you wish to read that into my comment

if it were possible, and it's probably not, i think child benefit should taper away after 3 children (that number allows for a stable population)

as for housing, in this instance, i fail to understand why an apparent french migrant should be entitled to free housing at all any more than a uk student is

Well i'm sure i wasn't the only one to get that impression..

You really do need to get out more into the REAL world... We've had discussions
before on the subject of foreigner's, whether from the EU or elsewhere getting
priority housing over the indigenous population.

And you get examples like this and the multicultural liberal open doors brigade
wonder why people are pissed of with it all..

I think it's called Ethnic diversity as well now ,i love that one .

Well he may be a student ( stop it ) but he isn't very bright is he , putting himself and family in this position instead of getting on with it . The result will probably be much public outrage and indeed hatred from many in society who don't have anywhere near his privileged windfall . Idiot who deserves all he gets .

I beg to differ V, he doesn't deserve what he gets.

I know what you mean , I meant in the payback side .

Chris Carson - 08 Sep 2016 16:16 - 5186 of 12628

You mean from the unfortunate single men, who fought for their country and are forced to live on the street. Wonder if they feel aggrieved perhaps?

Q Fred with one of his snide comments .

cynic - 08 Sep 2016 16:18 - 5188 of 12628

try the real world of dealing with international customers ..... now that really can test one's patience and more

there are legit cases where non-specific migrants deserve priority in housing or other benefits, but the wholesale rung-jumping which would appear to be commonplace, is certainly wrong

btw, accepting or even welcoming multiculturism is a farflung cry from the approval of an open door policy

Over who ? name me one .

jimmy b - 08 Sep 2016 16:21 - 5190 of 12628

I can't think of any case where an immigrant should be put before one of out servicemen who are living rough.

Fred1new - 08 Sep 2016 16:21 - 5191 of 12628

Grainyboy,

Heil Hitler!

jimmy b - 08 Sep 2016 16:22 - 5192 of 12628

Told you the moron would arrive , a man with no opinion .

VICTIM - 08 Sep 2016 16:25 - 5193 of 12628

He thinks he's Mother Teresa jimmy , he has visions of self proclamation , only visions of course .

Fred1new - 08 Sep 2016 16:25 - 5194 of 12628

Only Dumbo's opinion is valid.

Up the Reich.

jimmy b - 08 Sep 2016 16:26 - 5195 of 12628

Dumbo ? your as thick and stupid as a brush Fred.

cynic - 08 Sep 2016 16:28 - 5196 of 12628

hmm
perhaps wrote a bit too speedily ...... but i don't think genuine political refugees and the like should start from the bottom rung either

for example, do you think a single parent, just arguably thrown out of home (may actually be contrived) deserves to be a top priority?
and what about that "regular boyfriend" who lives with her 3 or 4 nights a week and the she with him for the balance?
should either have free housing?

what about people who refuse to work more than 16 hours a week as otherwise their benefits are impacted?

i've prob gone off track a little, so slightly sorry

Fred1new - 08 Sep 2016 16:29 - 5197 of 12628

Try, "you are"!

cynic - 08 Sep 2016 16:31 - 5198 of 12628
