Immigration population up another 700k

[Atallglassimdof]

I understand that this country needs immigration but if you import 100,000s of low skilled workers, in their 30s and 40s, how are they going to fund their retirement or pay for their housing?

It just seems counterintuitive to bring loads of people into this country who will need considerable financial support ( housing benefits, pension credits) when they are no longer able to work, and don’t have the means to support themselves.

None of this is sustainable

You clearly haven't read the posts I was responding to initially! 🤣. Awkward isn't called awkward for nothing!

Everything on this list is available in any country in the world. Claiming this is British culture is just AI slop.

Open air spaces for fuck sake!

Yeah, a group of Somalians arrived in 2020 and told us all about this amazing outdoor space, it's called a village green.

Any country???? LOL! Get me some sushi and some K pop tickets from south sudan then.

The naivety is overwhelming. Cultural homogeneity is extrememly embedded in many places, China.. Japan... You do not find many of these things there at all.

You asked for examples. You got them!

Thats not true.
There are many places you wouldn't get any of this.

Is that even a word? Who gives a fuck what he thinks?

Doesn't stop it being part of British culture, though.

It's worthy of consideration. We've brushed a lot under the carpet for decades. Things seem to be improving regarding open discussion (despite Keir Starmer's surveillance and censorship attempts).

How is K Pop famous world wide for being British culture?

I first ate sushi in Canada in 1986.

How is sushi famous world wide as British culture?

You mistakenly call the global ubiquity of successful products "British culture".

Aside from the fact that we are in the top 10 consumers of it, our teenagers accept it as theirs, and that most of their names are in English, we have now started producing it ourselves.

And how is this a benefit of immigrants?

Did we only find out about K-pop when they emigrated to live in England?

How are you mistaking global trade and communication for immigration?

People are so shallow.

Overwhelmed housing and services but we are listening to K-pop online and infinity migrants will cycle takeaway food to our doors so it's fine.

More deflection and strawmanning.

No one has said anything like that on this thread.

These tactics are identical to TRAs calling women bigots and TERFs simply because women didn’t kowtow to the madness of militant and misogynistic notion of men in women’s spaces and women’s prisons and hospital wards and women’s sport.

No one cares about the opinions of misogynistic rape apologists.

I thought, given what i had been called, i was very restrained.

That pp is clearly far more Reform then even a Reformists reformer....

...and not one i'll bother engaging with again.

Plenty of people care about the opinions of misogynistic representatives apologists. Im assuming the one you're referring to is Farage? Or is it Trump.

Now do Japan.

Irrelevant

It's just AI slop.

"Better prepared for a global world"

What does that even mean? The world and global mean the same thing.

This is the most unintentionally hilarious thing I have ever seen on this forum.

Do they mean no borders? It’s all being sold in now.

It's easy to make morons laugh

Maybe, I always find the most understanding of our predicament are actually the newly arrived immigrants who from experience phone their friends back home and tell them not come. They encounter all the same problems we do and if it’s better back home and your home is the third world then maybe we have a problem.
