The last government stopped all legal ways for legitimate people who wanted to come to this Country, including parents of university students, Homosexual seriously damaged in Muslin Countries, people wanting to get away from war zones and a few seeking work in the UK. As a consequence 70% of the people who come over in the small boats have legitimate reason to stay and do stay. If this Government opened up the legal roots with very tight custom procedures most of the boats who disappear and the British public would have one less thing to moan about.

I would go after the boat builders

Why should we be some sort of safe haven for the worlds population whether it be through legal means or otherwise, most of them don't even like us and don't respect our ways and culture let alone want to work hard and pay their way, most of them are a drain on resources. Could you imagine if it was the other way around and we needed rufuge would they be so generous, I doubt it very much even if you want to go to Australia, USA or Canada for a holiday you've got to be squeaky clean and jump through hoops just to get a visa.

Scott Free can see who you are going to vote for at the next election. If you were not born here you cannot understand this country. If I ever had to lived in America I would feel the same the most horrible place in the World. But if I had to live their I would learn to be as horrible as them so I fitted in, which is what most immigrants do, despite what you have said with no evidence. The 70% come from the percentage of the boat people who are allowed to stay because they have a good case.

Even the left wing activists at the Home Office deciding on the claims don’t pass 70%. As for homosexuals, ask the 74 year old man that was raped outside a church by an Eritrean asylum seeker last week if thinks they should be housed and fed. You sound like a nice caring individual TTIN. Can I ask if you have got any of these poor deprived individuals living with you?

Make them come over on big boats! They come in many different ways. What has the size of the boat got to do with it.

Ok then The Time Is Now could you please enlighten me as to who you think I'll be voting for next election, reading what you wrote it looks to me you're implying I'm some kind of racist which I can hand on heart say that I'm not. I may be wrong but you're sounding like some kind of leftist socialist who when challenged on the illegal migrant crisis jump straight on the "you are a rightwing fascist racist" defending the indefensible.

Let’s be honest the main problems this country has are being totally ignored by labour and weren’t addressed by the tortes over there 14 years in power.
1)Country’s debt
2)Immigration
3)NHS
4) Housing situation
5)North sea oil
Unless the above are a priority we’re in massive trouble.

I’m a bit of a dunce so never went to university. Can TTIN explain why it’s necessary to bring your parents, or any family member, with you when you study?

TTIN, my dad my grandad fought two wars to save this country and now you and others like you want to give it away , shame on you, if we don’t change this will become a Muslim majority country and all these people on boats , mainly male undocumented and unskilled, why do you think they come here

Those same relations fought for 5 years to stop fascists taking over this country and certain misguided people would like to elect a fascist government.

The war lasted 6 years, not 5. Did they have a little break in the middle?

good point Scott free, if all countries were as good as us, they wouldn’t all have to rush here. The French can’t get them on the boats quickly enough.they all dislike us and think we’re stupid, and we are because we just can’t see it

You may think you no who SCOTT free will vote for . But for the record I wouldn’t vote for any of the toe rags

Women still do not get equal status, the police believe a traffic offence is more important than rape and the President of the united states does not like women or coloured people.

How many women are killed by driving offences? Women get more equal rights here in England. Regarding people the president does not like, don't you worry your little cotton socks about him and start to like the English of which i'm not sure you are one anyway?

Muslims believe in God but Jesus brought us Christianity not Islam. Jesus invited us to come into Christianity, not Islam, Hindu, or any other false religions. Remember the ten commandments and one particular commandment? Thou shalt not worship other gods but me? This is why as a country we have gone backwards and forgotten our religion. Jesus never embraced Islam or any other religion get your facts right. The woke christians who make out they are doing good by inviting other religions into our fold are nonsense and wrong. King Charles our woke King has made things worse by changing bible sayings. This is why england is falling and has fallen.

Gods are character in films nothing else. Anyone who believes in them is crazy as it defies logic.

The issue TTIN is that you’re allowed to say that. The people we’re inviting in would be very happy to cut your head off as a non believer and wouldn’t even blink doing it. Those not of their beliefs are regarded as worthless. Pretty soon we will be at critical mass and Europe will fall. Mass uncontrolled immigration has destroyed every culture and empire that doesn’t try to stop it, from the Neanderthals to Rome, to Byzantium, those unwilling to fight to preserve themselves, go under Bit like climate change, history repeats, the difference being that man can control immigration.

I think you’ll find WW2 lasted for 6years and 1 day. Didn’t end until Japan surrendered in , I think, September 1945. All a bit academic now.
How long do we think the next one will last?
