    Its people that get everything then cry wolf that piss me off !

    In some homes refugee's get :

    Modern TV
    DVD Player
    HI FI
    Surround Sound Setups
    Sky Tv
    PC's
    Internet
    Playstations + Other consoles :eek:

    Then the cheeky fuckers say that they arent getting enough as well as getting free dental / hospital / doctors treatment and just to add the cherry on the cake there shopping paid for ???

    I have seen documentry programmes on it / read it in the papers so its not bull shit either, if i look at the list above i can safely say that living in a single parent family home we do not have 5 on the list of the items !

    Now thats a fucking joke !

    I aint saying that they all like this but there is people that come over here take everything they get then kick up a stink !

    very wise words :D :D :D

    but at the end of the day 3 out of 20,000 seats is only 0.02% which in reality isn't a real threat to anyone or anything the monster raving loony party has probably had more seats.

    true...

    There are always going to be people who deserve asylum in this country, those who have fled their home because they have been persecuted, tortured, oppressed. They deserve the same freedom that we enjoy.

    At the same time, there are always going to be people who abuse that system, who come to this country to live on the benefits offered to asylum seekers. The most ironic example I can think of is the terrorists in london who were developing ricin and who had claimed asylum in this country. I'm not sure of my facts, but I think I'm right in saying that the UK has one of the best welfare systems in europe (as in asylum seekers get the most financial support in this country)

    My thought is this - I have no problem with people claiming asylum in this country, but I do have a problem with those who come here claiming asylum, and then turn against this country and it's people (like that Abu Hamza guy who used to preach at finsbury park in london). It's also the same with those who come all the way across the EU just to apply in the UK. If you really need asylum that bad, wouldn't you stop in the first country you came to that did not oppress you and those like you?

    I find it hard to believe that the rest of europe is persecuting these people also.

    Just my two cents

    Re: f you could be an ethnic minority what would you be?

    In case this got took the wrong way what I was meaning when I said 'Being an Englishman in Britain'

    Is that the British Government doesn't have a Secretary of State or a Minster for England while other parts of UK have BOTH.
    The Government also doesn't have any Minster for men but does have Minster for women.

    On the asylum seeker thing I don't mind political asylum seekers, it is economic migrants,bogus asylum seekers & illegal immergrants I am against.

    Yet again you show off your massive intellect.

    If you ere a political refugee from bosnia your flight path would maybe be something like:

    croatia
    hungary
    austria

    Then once through these countries they'd have the choice of england, germany, france, etc. But those first three countries are the first ports of call in Europe - now if you were trying to get a better life why the fuck would you stay there?

    Yes England does have a better welfare system, the problem doesn't lie in whether or not we provide for refugees - there are 2 fcators that give us a bad name:

    a. Bogus asylum seekers as you said. But diferntaiting between genuine and bogus is an extremely hard and lengthy process (Scottyfish is prolly the person to ask as he works for immigration), if even one slight mistake and that refugee is deported back to his place of origin their life is at risk... And in my eyes human life ranks waaay above welfare.

    b. illegal immigrants, these are a huge problem for britain and they have no right to be here, however contrary to public believe their not a huge drain on the economy - their very nature of being illegal means they can't get welfare, their very naturew of being illegal means they most work to survive. The problem lies with them taking our jobs - however cheap factory work, cleaning, prostitution are hardly jobs most self respecting person would want.

    Its the diversity of english culture which makes it such a great place to live, their are very few places in the world where you have a mcdonalds, a curry house, a fish and chip shop, a chinese, a thai restraunt, etc. all on the same road.... we have a very rich culture and immigrants add to this.

    are there many cases of racism in Newcastle? Honestly, i dont know, i personnally have never noticed it, but down here, it is rife... some fuckin idiots will use race as an excuse for slating at the drop of a penny...

    I was once waiting for my bro at Watford Junction Station and there was a fuckwit and his handsome g/f waiting for a cab, a cab pulls up with an asian driver, and the guy asks the driver how much it would be to somewhere...

    Next thing the guy is shouting at the driver going "I 'ate fackin' efnics, just after ah fackin' money, u fackin' efnic cunt" etc.etc. stuff like this disgusts me :mad: I have a lot of respect for asians/middle easterns, cos they are willing and do work far harder than a lot of your average white folk, and then we complain that they re taking all the top jobs as accountants, laywers and doctors... They made it for themselves! U dont just get given these top jobs, u work hard, u earn them, they start off as shop keepers/taxi drivers, and in a very few generations will be high flyers, laughing at the dumb white man, who cant be arsed to pull his or her finger out and do some hard work for a change...

    Sorry if i ve offended anyone with my views, but tough shit really... They work hard, they reap the rewards... Hows about any of you lot out there who "Cant be arsed to work, but are moaning that they re taking all our job" actually get off your fuckin lazy arses and do some work yourselves!

    Thankyou:)

    yeah, kinda screwed up my words there, for that I apologise.

    I was referring to those who live outside the EU (like africa for example)

    and maybe I should have said that in my original post.

    Your point about diversity is certainly spot on :)

    it's very easy to be idealistic when u come from the 'top' ethnic group (ie white males) as alot on here do.
  18. Guest

    very true,, but just because, for example someone is a white male they do not get preferential treatment over say someone who is a black male in society today.
