Off Topic The threat from the Far-Right

So nobody who wants to stop the boats is a racist?
Curious as to why people will talk about the cost of migration but not the cost of tax avoidance. What do you think?

 

We should talk about both or get more women in parliament as women can do more than one task the same time.
Would love to see whole tax system ripped up and started again. For me all offshore trusts ,letterbox companies etc should be banned from owning any assets in the UK be it companies, houses or other financial products. Any one based in a tax haven should be taxed at source and then they claim tax back if allowed. I don't agree with this non dom carryon. If they made money abroad and taxed abroad should not have to pay more tax here. Should only pay tax on money made in the UK.

 

Definitely there will racists who want to stop the boats,no doubts,but haway man labelling and calling EVERYONE is immature and disrespectful,as for tax avoidance I’m with you, boils my piss

 

The 'stop the boats' thing is a real head-scratcher to me. Not a single political party (at least that I'm aware of) doesn't want to stop the boats, but it's become this divisive issue.

 

When did I say everyone ?

 

I think when people feel frustrated it’s easy to turn to simple issues and scapegoat. It’s an issue - a safety issue, a capacity issue but not the cause of poor social conditions. People are lifting the wrong stone. Labour after a year can’t be either logically, mistakes or not. .

 

You were implying about statements on this board correct?,do you think there’s racists on this board?

 

Yeah I do think that being honest. A few comments made by some. I didn’t say it was everyone who disagrees with me.

 

Well TBH you do at times seem to generalise everyone with various statements,but fair enough if you don’t mean it

 

Farage’s Brexit Boats

 

Missed it, is he following Trump advice and calling for the gun boats?

 

Some crackpot from the SMB politics forum very active on this thread. I pop in now and again for a look and someone looks like they have lost their mind.
Stop the boats = racist
Vote reform = racist
Compliment Trump = racist
Only his opinion matters, only his opinion is right, only his facts sourced from the internet are right, more importantly only his opinion is put across in a rude, arrogant and undiplomatic manner. Very antifa like !

 

Who the **** has anything positive to say about Trump at this point?

 

Yep. And,if you disagree with their view,you're a right wing racist. This,from people who clearly and continually keep confusing racism with culturalism to further their own lack of self belief.

 

There was some yank on newsnight last night who did complement Trump on getting a few things right... e.g. nato needing to contribute more to the defence of Europe rather than rely on the US

 

Some Yank and Trump think it....but...do the Europeans?

 

It’s the new phrase for ‘small boats’. They started because of Brexit, so Ed Davey is calling them Farage’s Brexit Boats

 

but the real news breaking more corruption from Labour,from tainted donors, they are trying to sweep it under
the carpet

 

economic migrants looking for the best free handouts,
