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.

At that time Thatcher was referring to Brits. As it happens many EU citizens have done exactly that and moved to the UK in their hundreds of thousands because their own countries, mostly ex soviet bloc, couldn't provide. A real indictment on the type of socialism for which Corbyn still has fond feelings. I have no problem with them coming here since the vast majority are hard working and providing the services we need. But I am against hoards illegally pouring across our borders. Cameron is right by taking only verified refugees from camps outside the EU borders. All illegal migrants should be sent back but that will not happen. Merkel opened a pandoras box by mouthing off without thinking off the consequences. As for the meetings in Brussels to find practical solutions, how can a bunch that I wouldnt trust to change a light bulb come up with something practical?
The southern border has to be secured from people coming in and Syria sorted out. If that means keeping Assad, so be it. It should not be beyond the abilities of even these clowns to come up with a plan to drive out the radicals and create semi autonomous zones based upon traditional tribal loyalties.

You all need to wake up and see things as they are. Throughout history there have been mass movements for economic gain. The make up of Britain has evolved with immigration from all sides.
You think that by jumping up and down you can do something to stop it. At best our generation can only slow it down.
It's all about economics, in order to make a better life people move.
What is Europe going to do with those already here that don't get refugee status? How can they be sent home? At gun point.?
This is how our current brand of capitalism fails.
You may not like it, but it is happening before your eyes. Climate change will speed it up.

Mr Corbyn also said that he would scrap Margaret Thatcher's anti-unions strike laws, which could see the return of flying pickets and 'solidarity strike action'. Asked if he would scrap Mrs Thatcher's anti-strike laws

A friend of mine once watched Jeremy Corbyn try to rape an owl. This was the early to mid-1980s. The Labour leader used to come round to my squat in Leytonstone and we’d sit cross–legged on the floor, sniffing glue from a large plastic bag, and listen to Camper Van Beethoven’s ‘Take The Skinheads Bowling’. Jeremy was on the periphery of our little clique and we were suspicious of him because he was posh. Sometimes, when we were passing the glue bag around, we’d miss him out from sheer spite. Eventually this friend of mine — I won’t name him — told Corbyn that if he wanted to join our gang, rather than just sit there on sufferance, he’d have to pass an initiation test. He had a choice — he could either take a left-wing black woman, any left-wing black woman, on a motorcycle tour of the German Democratic Republic, or rape an owl. He looked out from beneath his fecund and autonomous beard and said, fairly promptly, ‘I’ll rape the owl.’
He had to break into an owl sanctuary somewhere to procure the owl. He turned up in Leytonstone a few days later with a rare and rather magnificent giant scops owl, renowned for its haunting call of ‘whuuuah, whuuuah’. My friend accompanied Corbyn and the owl into a bedroom, while we lay about downstairs in a narcoleptic stupor. I didn’t want anything to do with this initiation rite, as I have always liked and respected owls, and felt that this was an infringement of their liberty. Anyway, seemingly ages past. We heard, from upstairs, an occasional rather panicked ‘whuuuah, whuuuah’ and after a while Jeremy and my friend came back downstairs, Corbyn looking morose and my friend cackling with glee. ‘He couldn’t do it! He’s out of the clique!’ Corbyn shook his head and just said: ‘I’ll have to take some black left-wing woman to Czechoslovakia, I suppose.’
‘East Germany!’ we all shouted, as one.

JB,
Put you cap on the pavement.
I am sure some will help you buy a ticket to do so, even if it is only halfway.
You can walk the rest!
