Page 23 | AIBU to be deeply concerned about the sheer number of unchecked undocumented unknown men coming into the UK?

CoventryCity · 2026-08-30T08:40:57+00:00

This is some dystopian lord of the flies hell. Those poor women. Burned on the boat. Wth. Poor man stabbed to death. Why are the people that did this then going to be roaming free in the UK? Why are they allowed to enter the UK in the first place? Why are gangs not being 'smashed'? Why won't the government tell us the truth about their crime rates? AIBU to be deeply concerned about the sheer number of unchecked undocumented unknown men coming into the UK.

It would have been better than nothing

It was nothing. It was for a tiny number and we agreed to take refugees who had arrived in Rwanda (the most vulnerable ones) in return.

You understand nothing. I have zero to do with Restore or Reform, not my bag.
I do support women and girls though. And the report isn't dodgy. I understand it suites your mental model to think it is. C'est la vie.

I don't care what you think of me. The survivors of grooming gangs deserved better that that botched excuse of a report.

@Firetreev it's not a country filled with resources. ( ! )

I don't think you've studied much UK history.

We had gold and slate (in Wales) and iron ore in Lincolnshire (especially around Scunthorpe), tin (in Cornwall) silver, and copper
The Weald (Sussex and Kent): Clay and sand beds provided shallow iron ore exploited from Roman times through the Tudor era for local smelting and cannon manufacturing
Later on when deep shaft sinking began in 1900s we had access to coal at deeper levels.
We had a prosperous fishing and shellfish industry.
We had extensive forests, especially of oak from which we made ships.

I think you need to read a history book if you don't realise that this pales in comparison with the wealth and resources we extracted from throughout the British Empire!

How is being injured on a boat of immigrants anything to do with the dangerous chaos and impact of women and girls?

I don’t like any part of the story apart from that they were given medical treatment and the women were rescued before they died of heat stroke.

Show quote history

It’s all part of the same system clearly. The deaths and injuries on the way are because of the chaotic system.

I am out now, as I don't feel comfortable participating in a thread started to push Restore's agenda and flog its very dodgy (and probably Musk backed)"report". I now understand why CoventryCity has started so many threads on this issue, including those deleted by mnhq.

Mnhq only deleted one of my threads as someone reported it, I guess. The other one deleted, wasn't mine. I don't support reform or restore btw. I saw a 'labour' thread where all the posters did was talk about reform. Are you on that?

Iceland votes against restarting EU membership talks

Broadcaster RUV reports that 52.8% of voters rejected the government's proposal to resume accession talks.

And yet the claims backlog is substantially down as well... Once a claim is granted, asylum seekers don't need to be in camps or hotels. Yet nobody has mentioned that. Is there still a problem? Hell yes .Is progress being made? Also yes. But all we get on these threads is doom, woe, invasion. A little nuance wouldn't go amiss.

Show quote history

Where do you think they go once they are granted asylum?

I genuinely wonder.

They won’t have the funds to rent privately, so where do they find accommodation?

Apparently so and sometimes they get amplified on here which is lucky for them.

It is very irresponsible for the people hurt on this boat to do that in the same week when all is looking good. Someone might talk about that.

Overall things haven't improved for the 3 villages where those moved out the hotels will be sent to big asylum camps. Communities being used as collateral damage so the government can say they are closing asylum hotels.

Of course it's upsetting. But overall things have improved, and therefore the timing of yet another of these threads is suspicious. No, we aren't doomed. However much you and yours might wish it to be otherwise.

So if domestic white British people commit horrific SA we should allow men in from even worse nations?

Stop these men coming in you at least don't actively add to the problem? You at least reduce some stranger attacks (because I assume no women would get romantically involved with these men.)

‘You and yours’ just not staunchly pro Labour then.

The timing of the thread is because what happened is recent. Ik pro Labour want to only hear their policies are having press release effects but it’s not the case.

The boats are rammed, dangerous and becoming more so.
