    just waiting for a smart Brit to suggest they reduce the benefits, say to zero, until you have been in the country for a year and paid taxes.

    I think the irony of Australians moaning about migrants has got to be up there with Brits moaning about freedom of movement after having had an empire.

    Only for private properties in Grenfell Towers. 14 of the 129 flats were privately owned under right to buy. The other 115 were still social housing so would have cost the people renting or the council who owned it a fraction of that.

    Not that this snide punching down, divide and conquer article from the express would care about that.

    But here is the number of private properties

    A mate of mine has just returned from a bit of a “lads” trip to Poland. He said the Poles were not very friendly despite efforts to make conversation. He said there was just one Polish guy why wanted to have a chat. At around 6’ 4” and looking like a steroid factory, he wanted to “advise” them why the Poles don’t like England and are returning... In his words, “You have too many Pakis and allow anyone in”...

    Wrong in so many ways I know but you’ve got to love other nationals telling us what is wrong with our country and system ;)

    What do you mean wrong in so many ways. Seems this Guy has got it about right to me, and I am not a racist but facts are facts.
