WiseOwl182 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Greedy? You're having a laugh. Greedy. They want the UK over France, Germany, Italy, Greece, etc, because the benefits, healthcare and education is all generous. They're willing to risk their lives trying to reach it, even though they've already found safety. These are economic migrants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASGOWOODS Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 The punishment for which crime? Being brown and trying to make a better life? And possibly hiding the fact some may be rapists, murderers, paedos, riddled in aids bla bla bla. But in Halibuts huge garden of love, everyone is welcome.

Zamo Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Because you perceive they are of no use, doesnt mean we cant show compassion and civility. Thats what used to make great britain, great. I think you'll find that the opposite is true. Britain didn't become great by sharing its wealth but by acquiring wealth from other countries. When you start making some money you can show all the humanity you like. Until then yours generosity means nothing and you're in no position to lecture.

There are an estimated 185 000 refugees/ asylum seekers/ migrants in the EU at the moment. Roughly 3000 are trying to enter the UK from Calais. Which kind of gives the lie to your frothing. Far more are trying to enter Germany and Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFKvsNixon Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 once they are here they claim asylum and then get an allowance then access to free medical treatment and housing, its called playing the system, even when caught or if they are refused all they have to do is report to a police station........which they rarely do No, I don't think that thy'd do that and risk being sent back. They'd just hide away and stay part of the black economy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcoblog Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Surely the easiest answer is just to let them on a British ferry? One covered in British flags and bunting ... then take them back to where they came from in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The folk at Calais are a tiny part of the European problem. Your claim up above is quite simply naive and foolish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
