    I don’t usually comment on these threads. But I hate what is happening in this Country. The hatred, lawlessness, lack of empathy, the crime levels. I am now a citizen of Malta. My Wife and I have had serious conversations about leaving England and buying a place in Malta/ Gozo. I love England and I am a passionate patriot but even around my way which you could call Middle Class some areas are no go on a Friday and Saturday. It really saddens me that we have reached this low.

    Fact is, we have allowed an obscene amount of low IQ savages into this country. Such people see no issue with snuffing out life. This will happen often, yet the powerful people will do nothing about it. They will continue to espouse the virtue of mass migration whilst we all suffer from its myriad negative effects.

    Successive governments' hands are dripping with blood.

    I'd favour handing him over to the Taliban.

    Sadly anti-foreign sentiment is on the rise everywhere.
    You may not get a warm reception from all of the Maltese people.

    I will definitely get a warm reception from people in Malta. Number One my Dad was Maltese. Number 2 I am a citizen of Malta. Thirdly I am the right colour. Fourthly I have Friends and relatives all over . The crime rate in Malta is low. The residents in that Island are very proud of it and don’t **** on their own pavement.

    Fair enough.

    I would advise you to go then.
    Those who can leave should make arrangements.
    Unfortunately myself and most other people I know have no international connections, and thus nowhere else to go.

    I saw this last night but news
    It reminds me of the one time I had somebody out here a bit 'put out' on my not being a Brazilian(thank f*** for that btw).

    Setting the scene, we had finished having some food and normally waiters come to the table to collect the money, even if it is a fast food type place.

    Anyway, this particular place you go to the till and pay. I was waiting for the woman in front of me to pay and I was next, the woman finished paying then a woman behind me jumped in<yikes>. Anyway, I lost it at this point and instead of telling her in Portuguese I said "did you not see I am in front of you and I am next". She replied with "Meu Deus, ele é inglês!" meaning oh my God, he's English<laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh>.

    The f****** slag and her gorilla made sure I was next and said gorilla backed off.

    Both my children have never married. My Son is 40 and my daughter is 38. Neither have or want Children. I would move tomorrow but my Wife is reluctant to move because of her disabled Sister. My Mum is 93, but Malta is only a 3 hours flight away. If anything happens I can be back in the Country in no time.

    It’s getting my Wife to agree is the stumbling block.

    I had relatives in South Africa many years ago, could have moved out there. But those relatives came to the UK after the fall of Apartheid.
    About 20 years ago I was offered a job in Canada. But didn't want to leave family behind here.

    Hey ho.

    We have South African friends who have been trying to bring her mother over. They have paid a small fortune to immigration lawyers, only to be told after 1 year that she only has a 4% chance of getting a visa. The deserving cases are being turned down.
