IS BRITAIN'S IMMIGRATION POLICY AN ABSOLUTE JOKE?

29.06.07, 1:49am

The Blame falls entirely on Scotland with Blair and brown, not the labour party or the union or Britain as a whole, it is due to Scotland not doing what they should do by keeping their part of the UNION bargain involving equality and brown has done nothing to correct it and he has no intentions of doing it either. Its not that Scotland is any smarter or cleverer, it’s just that they have slowly gained the edge over England and Wales over the years because of the Barnet policy and now they have no intentions of correcting the balance and this is why there is no union or Britain anymore. Once is an accident (Barnet policy), twice is a coincidence (Blair Europe/no referendum) but three times (brown-prime minister/no vote) is deliberate, not one of these shows any sign of a culture or its leader being honest, this is pure dictatorship on the part of Scotland dragging us all into Europe, there is only Scotland, Blair and Brown to blame for this. Can Brown solve these countries problems now YES but he won’t because he has to much invest and to loose both for himself and for Scotland, because it would mean either giving England an equal deal or its own parliament. Brown has now got what he wanted to rule this country following in Blair’s footsteps, but it’s at the cost of selling his own country off to Europe as well, it’s a big price to pay for an old grudge which will never materialise anyway, I wonder if Scotland realise this. Because no one in Britain is going gain anything from this so Scotland is to blame, not England or Wales. Europe want to do what Germany wanted to do make the whole country a region of Europe because it means big business and big money but not for any of the workers of this country its just becoming a dumping ground for all the dregs of Europe.

PURE SCUM

25.05.07, 2:21pm

Any socialist government can be guaranteed to ruin a society.The last massive wave of immigration was carried out by a labour government in the late fifties and early sixties,and again in the seventies.
The individuals that have administered this country-especially those creatures in the last ten years are scum-pure and utter scum.
In years to come when all this forced multiculturalism breaks down -Yugoslavia style into extreme violence,I want to see Blair,Johnson,Brown,kelly,hewitt,Reid -and the rest of the dross hunted down by an English equivalent of mossad-and dealt with mossad fashion......anyone agree with me?

CATALOGUE OF DISASTERS

24.05.07, 11:38pm

I agree with most if not all the comments. Labour have hugely damaged Britain. They call such comments against their approach, small minded, even racist. I'm sorry but immigrants who come here, should live by our laws, integrate, and become Brits. If not, they should s*d off. Secondly, law and order has become a job, and the latest immigration policy has been exposed.

Labour, count your days, you've f***ed Britain, and your so stupid.

How can a government over pay out 6bn in tax credits and just shrug its shoulders. A government that's lost its why that's what. It never did have any way, just marketing hype. I'm paying lots of taxes and see sod all for it, i can't get nothing from the state when i really need it.

The whole system is rotten to the core and Gordon Brown has played a big part besides Tony Blair.

Prudent chancellor, LOL, anyone can ask for more money if they have the power to take it. That makes him prudent LOL.

Some of the soft brits in this country are so stupid they need to stop voing labour.

Just look at our social environment now, breaking down. Why? no punishment, no pride, ipods for good behaviour.

We've got to stop this fast.

NOT LAUGHING

we have been sponged off for far too long, the money they send to their homeland from their benefits is building second homes so they don't need to work and still they end up prospering,.

TREASON

24.05.07, 3:58pm

The government should be tried for treason. At the behest of their EU overlords they render the original British population powerless through a relentless campaign of population replacement. Disgusting traitors.

THIS COUNTRY IS RUINED

24.05.07, 11:14am

10 years of this Government's immigration policy (if that's what you can call it) have ruined this country. It has affected our way of life, our culture, employment, crime, NHS, education, security, transport, you name it, it has worsened everything. I'm afraid unless the British public stick together and mass protest or go on a general strike nothing is going to change for the better. What we need is strong leadership and a political revolution which I don't see out there anywhere. Maybe our only choice will be to leave this country as countless others have done, driven from our birthplace by an ever greedy and oppressive Government.

IMMIGRATION POLICY

24.05.07, 9:23am

Absolutely,the aliens have well and truly landed.The immigrants want,and get all their own way when they get here, they expect,and get all the benetits possible,and it suits the government as they will eventually contribute to keeping them in power.

THIS COUNTRY IS NO LONGER PLEASANT TO LIVE IN

24.05.07, 4:10am

it`s wrong for the politicians to decide without asking the people of this country "do we want to live in a multi culteral country " because they don`t live in the cities with them.I grew up loving this country ,but no longer recognise that country or enjoy it.Immigration is a joke and it has spoilt the lives of many.

IS BRITAIN'S IMMIGRATION POLICY AN ABSOLUTE JOKE?

After various discussions on the subject I have come to the conclusion that it is a deliberate New Labour Ploy.

Last year I read comments suggesting that an Amnesty for Illegal immigrants was being considered by the Government as a possibility.

Well just think about it - if they were given amnesty what next ? Voting Rights ? and then who would they ultimately vote for ? - why the Party who let them stay and gives them an easy living.

IMMIGRATION JOKE

23.05.07, 7:54pm

Immigration is not a joke it is the most serious thing to hit this little island in peacetime.
The JOCKS of Nulabour Tone and Gorgon along with lots of other JOCKS have planned this mass immigration so as to flood us with cheap labour so they themselves along with their cronies will all make £millions more at the expense of us English.
THEY ARE DETERMINED TO DO AWAY WITH THE ENGLISH RACE AND HAVE A MARXIST STATE.
If that strategy fails they will kill us of with the plague, the black death by not taking away our garbage weekly, rat infestation worse than Hamlin.
If that fails they will kill us of with contrived C. Diff and MRSA, coupled with death of not going into hospital for a operation in case you catch these terrifying deadly diseases and do not come out alive.
If they all fail they will kill us off with all of the deadly diseases these immigrants import into England. TB is rife and spreading, look it up in your browsers.
They are out to get us English one way or another.
Now I know that out there some of you will read this and say " he's nuts' well my friends only time will tell.
Remember Enoch Powell, he was right.
Go into your web browser and click on
iamanenglishman
and read it.
One final word do not believe the 92,000 figure, multiply it by 4 easy.
We English should be scared.

Good luck.

IS BRITAIN'S IMMIGRATION POLICY AN ABSOLUTE JPKE?

23.05.07, 7:01pm

I am appalled today to read lots of comments in the press plus letters by people praising Margaret Hodge for speaking out on behalf of English people who can't find social housing. She said they should come first and not those who have just come into the country and have contributed nothing.
NOW WHERE HAVE WE HEARD THAT BEFORE?

Margaret Hodge is NOT speaking for the poor family on a down market estate...she's speaking for herself.

She is quaking on the edge of the Richard Barnbrook phenomenon! THis as obviously so many people have no idea is the handsome, charismatic film director and BNP London leader

Eleven BNP councillors in Barking and Dagenham area... I think she feels she has to put on their clothes...Now come on be fair that is exactly what's she's done.

POLICY, WHAT POLICY?

23.05.07, 3:34pm

This government has done NOTHING to stop the flood of immigrants, let alone doing anything about all the illegal immigrants that have been here, and supported by the tax payer, for years! The EU (and the world) knows full well that the UK is ‘an easy touch’ and takes advantage of us every day of the week and with the government handing money to them like it is going out of fashion! Now, what was that film (Johnny English in case you did not know) about the UK being sold of as a giant ‘prison camp’? Well the fact is that the current situation is getting very close to this comedy scenario becoming true, with the UK becoming a ‘dumping ground’ for the rest of the world! The only difference is that not everyone coming in are criminals - and we welcome them with open arms and a pocket full of benefits…..

IT IS TO THOSE COUNTRIES SENDING US THEIR CRIMINALS AND SCUM

23.05.07, 2:19pm

Its not so funny if you happen to be a British national and have had your pension stolen and your gold reserves sold of at bargain basement prices to pay for them!

Close the borders and lets start resolving the problem by leaving the EU and returning the criminals here illegally for a start!
