Adding to what Terry said . . . . that sentence (question if it had a question mark) should include 'that' where I've put it, too You're right about the 'border' bit, mind p.s. If you're going to be pedantic you should get it write p.p.s. I know
630ml. At 5%. Does the job. Mind when i met norway the other night he was drinking chang ..**** that.
Aye, that's a big bottle. Not bad then. Norway would have probably found it very cheap. Alcohol is expensive as **** in Scandinavia. Last time I was in Sweden it was about 6 notes a pint & that was years ago.
A COMPASSIONATE mother is urging people to support the arrival of refugee Syrian families in Darlington next year. Judith Russell, along with others, has formed the Darlington Assistance for Refugees to help ten refugee families who will be placed in Darlington. Darlington's council leader Bill Dixon announced the families from UNHCR camps will arrive in town in the New Year. Families with no more than five members will be housed and each refugee will be given £8,500 to cover their costs. Darlington council will co-ordinate the families’ arrival - organising benefits, health checks, and English courses or getting into schools. Ms Russell and her colleague Jen Elliott-Morfott want the group to be fully involved in helping the refugees acclimatise to the town. Ms Russell, who has a teenage son, said: "We are people who have come together because we care. “It’s hard to plan because no one really knows what the families will be like or whey they will need. They may have very complex needs and have more than likely been through a truly dreadful ordeal. "We all have watched the news and see the pictures from the refugee camps and you cant quite believe this is happening in 21st century Europe." Promoted stories Once the council have notification of the families’ arrival, she will working hard to co-ordinate the response. Some of the group are planning to learn mentoring skills and one member speaks fluent Arabic. Ms Russell, a business coach, also made a solo trip to a refugee camp in Calais in September, providing umbrellas and bin bags for a damp, squalid camp housing over 3,000 refugees. She said: "The camps are grim places and they may have been there for months and months, often with ill health. “It’s a terrible ongoing situation but we have almost become desensitised to these terrible pictures on our screens. The camps – fleeing in a boat in the middle of the night with babies and toddlers, living without sanitation. The media have lost interest and we are fast approaching winter. Share article A few days after Christmas Ms Russell will return to the 'Calais Jungle' camp with boots and shoes for barefoot refugees and other donations from the public. Anyone who wants to make a donation can contact Judith on [email protected]. A potential 42 grand they're getting cash in hand to decorate and furnish their new council house and to buy a few wardrobes of primark clothes. I notice they get benefits too. The 16 grand savings threshold clearly doesn't apply to them but it does to the man who's forced redundancy has him and dumped on his arse and defaulting on his mortgage. Sorry but it takes the piss. They're here to claim asylum not to be propelled to magical level of comfort they've never experienced in their wildest dreams. But the 16 year old girl who left home for the YMCA because she couldn't bear to be touched up by her dodgy stepfather another night can't get out of the hostel because she doesn't have enough points for a council house and the most she can raise for a new gaf is 200 quid budgeting loan. I know it's not the asylum seekers fault, they'll take every penny and every bit of help offered, who wouldn't. The problem is the system, the funding that's going on them. Disgusting. ****ing disgusting.
Brilliant response Bri. I feel like cutting and pasting this full post and emailing it to Judith. ****ing joke, it also says £8,500 to each refugee, not each family...
Judith Russel & every member of the DAR should be made to house ten of the ****s each. Let's see how ****ing compassionate she slag is when they're raping her own children.
Yep. A familly of 5 are stepping into to a house, benefits and £42,500 hard cash. To give an example of what a ridiculous that amount of money that is in this town. http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-34699785.html
Can I just raise a controversial point about Judith. Forget about the money for one second, like Bri says it's not the asylum seeker's fault. What she's attempting to do is integrate them into British culture, the values she can pass on, the community values, the school... everything she's identifying here is the main problem with Islam in this country, the fact that they create their own communities (or are ethnically cleansed) and within those communities grows anger, resentment and eventually in certain places you see the evil Shar'ia Law raise it's ugly head. If we simply have to take these people into our country for protection, I'd much rather they were filtered amongst ourselves, dispersed from their little Islamic communities and shown the 'British Way', because that's our only hope of moving on side by side, with these immigrants. Ethnic cleansing has taken this country to depths it's never had to deal with, I for one, can't fault Judith's plan to integrate them. The money is the issue, a massive head start that we as a nation cannot afford to give them. I'd like to ascertain where money is coming from before jumping the gun though.
Why can't they do this for our own homeless. How many ex serviceman are living on the streets now. Lads who put their lives on the line for our Country. Just seen on Facebook one of our soldiers, from Fiji if I remember right, has been refused permission to live here. It's people like him and the Gurkhas that should be coming in. Our population density is twice that of Germany and three times that of France meaning they would have to take in 82 million and 186 million respectively to be as crowded as England. Even Scotland would have to take in over 20 million. Then, when they are as crowded as us, they can accuse us for trying to control the mass immigration.
So I assume that the good folk of Darlo have been consulted on whether they want these animals in their town?
Well most people in Darlington won't think the same as you mate, this country isn't racist on the whole.
UK's international aid budget pays for it(benefits aside). Goes blatantly beyond aid imo, it should be called the comfort budget. Badly spent aid money which gives the Asylum Seekers greater liberties than our own. The next Earthquke/Tsunami/Volcano/Flooding/Mudslide is just around the corner. But we can't get them as much drinking water as they need because we wanted to make sure our new Asylum seekers have enough cash to buy an Audi if they fancy it. Osborne and May need their ****ing heads smashing together.
Without wanting to get back into who's fault it is and the politics mate, I can definitely see your gripe with the amount of money being offered, but I haven't been shown anything concrete to suggest each refugee will be handed £8,500 in cash lump sums, the first thing they'll do is go to The Money Shop and send £8,000 of it to Syria to their 'helpless families' and claim they've been robbed at knife point. One of UKIP's main policies was the reduction in International Aid, it needs to happen and be invested in our own shores. Syria's president should be footing the bill for these people, £170m (£8.5k x 20,000 refugees) is a drop in the ocean for Syria if they're paying hundreds of millions for arms from Russia... Putin's not protecting him for peanuts is he? My point with Judith's plan is that I'm glad they're not being dumped into Luton, where they'll be brainwashed and turned by the backwards ****s who control their communities.
