For thinking that the migrant protests ...

[Ihateboris]

Should be held at the council offices, Government departments, rather than the migrant hotels? After all, it's due to the government's lack of processing that the migrants are there?

This is utterly disingenuous. You know damn well that given a choice you'd far rather live in the UK surrounded by British men than take your chances in Afghanistan where the men commonly regard women as chattel. And you wonder why VAWG is soaring in Britain - try joining the dots.

A majority is preferable to, for example, a very loud authoritarian ideological tiny minority. This is especially true on issues that have a dramatic and permanent affect on the U.K. population and are quite frankly utterly crazy.

LOL @ nazis, there’s always one.

I agree. We have to run a country based on a majority. That's common sense and the only way it'll work. Whilst simultaneously doing our utmost to provide fairness and equality at the most achievable levels possible for minority groups.

Many minority groups individual needs actually clash (example: devout religions and LGBT rights )

If the process is succesful, the outcome will be that asylum gets granted.

It’s always hilarious to see these sheltered women regurgitating what they read in guardian. They wouldn’t last a day if you sent them to Afghanistan to live among the men who now reside in the hostels.

It also means that their claims take longer giving them more time in the UK to develop a case for article 8.

Listen to yourself. I'm sure you'd be at the front of the queue to scold the first person to dare stereotype groups of people. Sneering at hair loss, weight, skin colour is such a pretty despicable. And despite your own preconceived assumptions, wring an England flag and protesting against asylum seekers being housed in hotels nearby does not equal racism. Do you sneer at our armed forces who are predominantly made up of white working class men?

Given rates of legal immigration over the last few years have been extremely high, why do you think bringing in all those strong net contributors has not led to a strong, healthy economy?

You need to know the disposition of the cases before making such a claim. The UK is very strict.

If you believe that , you will believe anything. ..

The pp stated that they cannot claim or be granted asylum without documents (as you well know). That is clearly not the case as you yourself have evidenced.

I wonder what sex the other 20% of adults and 81% of under 17's were

You don't think the UK is experienced enough to deal with those scenarios?

Granted, no system is 100% relable, mistakes will be made.

Spot on

I know.... The hypocrisy is astounding isn't it ? (Yet no longer surprising) These aggressive and short sighted bunch though are the "educated" ones.itd frightening really isn't it ?

But they’re fleeing danger? If the country they are leaving is so dangerous, then it will be dangerous for their families too. To get accepted, it can take months or years, all the while their wives and children are living in very dangerous conditions, and could also incur punishment by the regimes in the absence of the escapee. Not unheard of for families left behind to be killed in retaliation.

And you would?

Sorry but this comment wins the naivety prize today.

Honestly, how do some people get on in life, with such naive views.

I'd prefer that - one was down the end of my high street. I saw the videos on FB and for the first time I thought I don't recognise my country. People screaming at middle class protestors, people shouting at asylum seekers to go home. I actually want to sell and move and not be here anymore.

Having it so close on my doorstep really made me think about what I actually think and what country I want to live in.

I want to live in a country with controlled and fair migration. I believe we have a duty to house genuine refugees and while it may sound idealistic I don't think we need to leave the ECHR. I do think we need to send people back who arrive by boat, but we need a different system, so people genuinely fleeing persecution and war can have safety.

I don't particularly want a lot of people in the UK who have no affiliation to British values and zero respect for women.

France is fine, this is nonsense. Marseille is a bit dodgy I guess.

Are you kidding me!? No I don’t trust them to act in our best interests. The system is chaotic.

In the 2021-22 census about 16.2% of the UK population were immigrants. Immigrants aren’t driving anything that’s happening to the economy, even if we’ve (possibly) added another 2-3% since.

Look what happened to the very wealthy and doctorate level couple who went to Iran because, unlike us stoopid people, all you had to do was cruise around freely on a moped, snap some pics with the brown people and get some "local stories from local people" and we could all be fwends. Sadly that naiveté has been very costly indeed to that poor couple.

But this shows how disassociated people are with the rules/laws/totally and utterly different ways of life and reality are lived out in other countries.

The cluelessness is astounding.

Comparing how UK men treat women to what life is like as a wife in a third world or just totally different cultured country is unbelievable isn't it ?

I’m agreeing with you, but pointing out a posters statement that all the men coming here are doing the dangerous crossings alone, to then bring their families over later. I’m pointing out that that’s absolute rubbish. The men attempting to come here are economic migrants, and possibly criminals, and they have left their families behind because their families are safe, and in safe countries anyway. It’s pretty obvious…
