    While riding my Harley the other day, I swerved to avoid hitting a deer, lost control and landed in a ditch, severely banging my head.

    Dazed and confused, I crawled out of the ditch to the edge of the road when a shiny new convertible pulled up with a very beautiful woman who asked, “Are you okay?”

    As I looked up, I noticed she was wearing a low cut blouse with cleavage to die for… “I'm okay I think,” I replied as I pulled myself up to the side of the car to get a closer look.

    She said, “Get in and I'll take you home so I can clean and bandage that nasty scrape on your head.” “That's nice of you,” I answered, but I don't think my wife will like me doing that!

    “Oh, come now, I'm a nurse,” she insisted.

    “I need to see if you have any more scrapes and then treat them properly.”

    Well, she was really pretty and very persuasive

    Being sort of shaken and weak, I agreed, but repeated, “I'm sure my wife won't like this.”

    We arrived at her place which was just a few miles away and, after a couple of cold beers and the bandaging, I thanked her and said, “I feel a lot better, but I know my wife is going to be really upset so I'd better go now.”

    “Don't be silly!” she said with a smile, while unbuttoning her blouse exposing the most beautiful set I've ever seen.

    “Stay for a while

    She won't know anything

    By the way, where is she?”

    “Still in the ditch with my bike I guess.”

    It makes no sense why they pretend. It's extremely easy to prevent illegal immigration by removing all incentives, removing cash and setting up digital identity which is necessary to access all services - much like private banking has been required to do.

    I think the desperate measures taken by illegal immigrants are fuelled by the promises of the life here. Told by friends and relatives of those who have made it. And probably told over and over again by the people who say, give me all your money, and this country will give you it all back. Rather like Dick Whittington and London. The incentives are those enshrined in Human Rights Legislation. I do not think it would be as easy to remove them as you suggest.

    Laws and legislations are constantly being challenged and changed - nothing is enshrined, otherwise nothing would ever change or advance.

    The number of places available should be determined by the availability of services. If a country can't adequately provide for the population it has, it has to stop expanding the population. It's scandalous that homelessness is at recent highs, whilst inward migration also is.

    However, with Keir Starmer now expecting British males (but not his children) to provide boots on the ground in the Ukraine, there could finally be a role for new Brits.

    Reports of an online shopping surge from the Hull & ER area apparently, with some asking if they do them in amber & black.

    Got me thinking, I'm pretty sure that if I posted something like "Keir Starmer is the UK's Prime Minister", I'd get:

    - at least 2 replies calling me a Cnut
    - 2 replies arguing with me that I was wrong (I don't need to state who)
    - 1 reply calling me a prick
    - and at least another 2 replies calling me a facist, far right, racist
    followed by a couple of posters PM'ing me telling me not to let the idiots on here grind me down
