Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

jimmy b you are not a racist you are someone that gives a dam about this Nation and it's people and the people who fought and died to keep it free . But unfortunatley due to now outdated laws of all sorts that don't fit in with the modern world ie mass movement con artist's freeloaders people traffickers low lifes ETC .
=-=-=-=-=
I suggest you look at the constituents of the Allied Forces in WW2 and subsequent0 "wars", who "fought" for Britain and the way their various countries and see how they were treated subsequently.

fred - i don't exactly concur that history is bunkum, but though what you allude to above is absolutely correct, it was 70 years ago and times, mores and circumstances have changed
we now live a very different world, and it is that with which we have to deal
in a similar vein, i think it total crap that britain is expected to apologise today for the existence of slavery - albeit that that whole argument is based on a fallacy anyway

Just sometimes Fred people just want to express an opinion you know , right , they just want to say something off the cuff see . You want people to consult the Encyclopedia Brittanica before they post for god's sake ,

No, but I would prefer them to think before giving knee jerk comments.
No problem with disagreements of opinion.
But I was taught as a little boy to differentiate between"need", "want" and "wish" and to consider consequences of "actions".
(Nothing wrong with "wishing" or "wanting".)

What a stupid post Fred (knee jerk comments) (No problem with disagreements of opinion)
You don't like anyone to disagree with you.
people have an opinion that they don't want hundreds of thousands more immigrants pouring in to Britain .
Your the minority on here.

Germany yesterday said that it has not set any upper limit on the number of immigrants. That is just creating a situation where there will a huge increase in the numbers.

I' ve said before what message does this send out to the rest of EU and indeed it's own people . I could understand a slow build up in their plans to get age down , but this is strange , have they been building houses slyly and planning this because how can you just take in these amounts . ( AT NO POINT IN THIS MESSAGE ARE THERE ANY ACTUAL REEL FACTS OR HISTORICAL KNOWLEDGE IT'S JUST OFF THE TOP OF MY THICK HEAD ).

Germany is looking out for Germany...they'll cherry pick the best, and export the rest.
Those not selected, will be encouraged to seek fame and fortune (benefits) elsewhere.

Victim Those that fought and are still fighting to keep Britain free didn't do it in the sense you imply. Theirs was/is a stepping up when needed to do the right thing. By defending basic human freedoms they ensure Britain remains free. You disrespect them by implying they somehow had an isolationist view that Britain cared only for those on this island. Remember many others did some dying to keep Britain free too.

Germany has the same type of demographic time bomb as most countries. They have an ageing population with a lack of workers to pay for pensions. I watched CNN just now and a German economist who advises the government on policy. He suggested that these immigrants will go some way to solving their problems. Germany currently has a surplus of around 6bn Euros as a surplus from taxation. A large chunk of that money could be spent on the costs associated with taking the immigrants.

Compulsory euthanasia is the way to go. Especially if they started with the Canadians and the Welsh at 18.

Jimmyb At no point have I called for mass immigration. There is current nett migration into UK of 300k + many are students, many in jobs and a good few in the nhs. I was arguing for the uk to take a share of refugees, and stated that 100k a year would be no problem.
In to order to have a meaning full discussion when you say mass immigration put a number on it?
