    I think there should be limitations. I obviously can’t answer that in detail. I just don’t support the ‘be evil’ approach and I think it should be done by consensus with our partners not the self obsessed little Englander approach. We have never taken more than others we are just self obsessed so a fair share is right. People will only stop travelling if we improve social conditions and safety and we can probably never ever guarantee that, so we need to work out how best to collectively support people otherwise. Creating an environment where tolerance is reduced and fear and threat is increased is just plain wrong and it’s only being done for power.

    Today's list of questions, rolled over from yesterday.

    Where does this lunatic right government sit in the list of historical lunatic right governments.

    How many illegal immigrants is too many?

    I’m beginning to wonder if these are the people traffickers that they are supposed to be trying to get rid of. Can’t think of another reason they are doing f uck all.

    Labour have made the tactical decision that they can actually have the same manifesto as the conservative party and win by virtue of not being the Tories.

    Who the **** cares about u-turns !

    If I decide to do something in the future, then something happens/is discovered in the interim period that makes changing that decision a better option, I'd be right to alter my plans.

    What's wrong with that :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Trying to 'score political points' because of u-turns is bloody stupid :steam:

    If the circumstances change, during the lifetime of a government, it would be idiotic to simply plough on with how things used to be.

    In the past year we've had three PMs all of whom moved the goalposts ...

    ... you can't keep kicking in the same direction through being blinkered to the changes.
