dirty dingus Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Of course we need migrants, I have never said we didnt but come on, we are a small island country. Net migration has been over 200k for over 10 years now except for one year. It is now over 300k and with half of Africa and the Middle East now turning up on Europe's doorstep is only going to get higher. Maybe if we didn't bimb the shit out of libya,iraq,afghanistan and syria while also encouraging fanatical fringe mobs to rise up these people wouldn't be so desperate to visit these shores.

Wasn't there a report recently on how many of these families want to go back as soon as things improve. Just from memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srevart Treb Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 So how much migration will be aceptable? What would you be happy with? Between 40 to 70 odd thousand I reckon we could deal with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why these shores though?, plenty of other shores much much closer and probably more similar to their current way of life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srevart Treb Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Why these shores though?, plenty of other shores much much closer and probably more similar to their current way of life. In what way?, By using the term half of Africa and the Middle East that due to huge numbers involved that are descending on Europe, it can feel like that to the beleagured populace of austerity afflicted Europeans. Any sane person understand why I would use the exaggeration in the context I used it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares our society should accept more refugees and it's shamefull the tiny numbers we are accepting in respect to the hand we had in creating the problem.

Because we are forcing Europes poorest countries to deal with a problem we are, at least in part responsible for creating. (f**k off btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strichener Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Between 40 to 70 odd thousand I reckon we could deal with that. Do you have any evidence to support these numbers. There appears to be empirical evidence that we can actually support >300k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
