    Ahh, that didn't take long. 'the racist card'.. You know **** all about me. my family and friends or what composition of 'people' that makes up.

    So get this absolutely ****in straight.!!

    I have no problem with the the colour of anyones skin or their cultural background, I object to paying for physically fit shirkers from both here and abroad to sit on their arses doing **** all in return, when some of our own like young Oskar Pyecroft can't get any money out of the 'over burdened NHS' in order to simply walk! Some people are asking a perfectly reasonable question as to why these 'refugees' are passing through safe countries to get to richer european ones, and why are there so many single young males doing so, try answering the question!!

    So, you're against foreigners sitting on their ass contributing nothing, but you're not against the many British citizens that do the exact same thing? The benefits system has its place, and anyone entitled to take benefits can and should. If the system is broken, then the system needs to be fixed.

    You may not be aware of this, but the country profits from immigration. If we got rid of all the foreigners then guess what? We'd have even less money than we currently have, including the NHS.

    Also, it's been said many times, but there is a HUGE difference between accepting asylum seekers and accepting immigration. There's really no excuse for missing that one now. The UK needs to accept its fair share.

    On the subject of young males coming over, that's a hard one to answer without knowing that it's actually the case. Any evidence to suggest that most of those coming from Syria are male?

    Read the post again!

    This is hard work. Some people are questioning whether there actually is any difference and hence (for the umpteenth time) why are they passing through 'safe' countries to get to more affluent ones. that does not appear to be for the the need of personal safety but long term gain..

    We need to home our own homeless first!

    Homelessness is what benefits tries to eradicate. Cutting benefits increases homelessness.

    The Left does not have anywhere near the amount of propaganda as the right given that 80% of the media is right wing.

    The solution for most things is to grow the economy and you instantly gain more money because higher gap means higher tax revenue.
    Building affordable homes and social housing frees up more spending money to go into the economy. As does controlling utility bills.

    Micheal Micheal Micheal.

    There is more to the UK than ENGLAND, please rewrite all of this again.

    Without Wales, you wouldn't have our seasoned Lamb
    Without Scotland you wouldn't have Rab C Nesbitt
    Without Ireland you wouldn't have Guiness

    Now what has England given??

    I was working for a boss who closed his office door on me one day to cheer and gloat about what had just happened right in front of our eyes. He was originally from Palestine and had travelled the world looking for what he thought life should offer him and his family, and he found that in the safety of Canada. He thrived in his new land of choice and all was well and good until he showed his true colours on that day he closed his office door.

    The day in question was Sept 11th, 2001 and we all know where we were and what we thought on that terrible day. My boss stayed in his office all day sending faxes (remember them?) to all his customers applauding the events that shocked us and the rest of the normal world, without a thought of the innocent victims. Within 3 months his previously successful business went down the toilet and he essentially had to give it away for peanuts, so as you can imagine it made my job as his sales manager a little more than difficult.

    We can go on about the rights and wrongs of this terrible situation until the cows come home, but you will never solve it when you see the example of my ex-boss's attitude and belief that what happened on 911 was perfect retribution and absolutely justifiable. Don't think for a moment that he is a stand alone example of what is so wrong about the Middle East because everyone involved on the other side of the fence thinks exactly the same as my ex-boos. They all have a simple philosophy that says you're wrong and I'm right, and never the twain shall meet.

    Never a shortage of guns but a total lack of compassion for their fellow countrymen.

    Redordead, Redordead, Redordead to whom are you talking? My name is Michael. The answer to your rhetorical question as to what England has given to the world is.

    Nothing, because everything of worth they have already sold off to the rest of the world. The politically correct answer must surely be Bristol City, but I really want say Amanda Redmond. Don't tell Ann.
