Unfriending right wing friends

[nondrinker1985]

One of my school mum friends of around 10 years has started sharing loads of Restore Britain/Rupert Lowe posts.

I’m actually really shocked as she’s an Irish immigrant herself.

I’ve unfriended her which is a shame as day to day she’s ok. Also another mum who has been liking and commenting on the Restore Britain posts, they’ll probably tell me they’re not racist but I can’t be arsed calling them out.

We did a fantastic job of helping the women and children fleeing Ukraine, we can be proud of that.

I think that with regards to the men in boats, first of all you would need to believe that they are fleeing a war torn country and I think we can safely say that the majority are not. Why do they hide their identities? Why do they toss their passports? Why not say 'this is who I am, this is where I am fleeing from, please help me.' We would. And why are we not seeing boats full of women and children? Where are they all? What kind of a man would leave his family and children in a war torn country? They are not even safely in the tents in France whilst the men take the perilous journey across the sea. They are nowhere to be seen. It doesn't add up.

The Ministry of Justice under David Lammy is intending to delete millions of court records which will include the rape gangs trials, for no apparent reason.

Labour don’t seem to care very much about advancing an inquiry or retaining crucial information that will inform it.

I don't unfriend, because I can't then ask these questions. They never reply though 🤷🏾‍♀️.

Odd how almost every one of those people crossing from France every single day are men. If they're escaping danger, where are all their female relations? What does that absence of women tell you?

Good grief

Thank you. Bless you too. 😊

This is what it boils down to. A difference of opinion is supporting Man Utd over Liverpool, or liking/not liking marmite. Harmless. But racism is a personality trait that doesn’t align with my morals. Why would I want to see that or associate with it?

Well I've unfriended corbin supporters in the past....so you do you

@Helen1625 I think we can safely say the majority are fleeing war zones or are at risk of persecution (a valid reason to claim) as the asylum acceptance rate is near 70% including appeals.
Further the majority of those in small boats are from Eritrea, Afghanistan, Somalia, Iran, Sudan, so quite obviously reasons to seek asylum.
As said 60 billionty times on similar threads there are women and children on boats but it also happens that it’s safer and more possible for men to get out than women from these countries so they go then send back for family if they manage to settle - though you’ll be glad to know leftie labour has stopped family reunion visas.

I don’t mind discussing immigration- I accept there are different views of course I do - I do however dislike bad information being used to promote or encourage hatred and perpetuate ignorance.

However, look at Germany. Their numbers are going down despite having the highest for years, applications are going down and they are removing people faster than before with (some newer) different schemes, and partially aided by the Dublin Regulation and the database.

.....And yet you still ignore the whole point of my post to someone else.

If the sexual assault and murder of women by illegal immigrants was "make believe", there would be no point to this thread.

Thank you for inadvertently answering my question. You are a man, of the lowest kind.

The real problem is men.

Transwomen are men. Most in fact, are actually fully intact men. You seem to think 'transgender people' are a third sex or something. And the reason the vast majority of sexual assaults are from men we know, is because of ease of access. You allow more males to access female spaces, you widen up that access.

Last I heard it was about 20% women and 20% children so not nearly all men.
And men have taken the journey because it's dangerous, applied for asylum, then brought family over on family visas when granted asylum. That latter bit has stopped now, Labour have changed it and they no longer get a 'free pass', they have to apply like anyone else, earning a good wage etc.

So, did you think it was completely sinister that it's 'almost every one is men'?!!

I don’t need to assume it. 30% (give or take) voted for Brexit. If we assume non voters had no opinion at all it’s still not 50% who wanted it.

You could argue, what man allows his baby and wife to be on a dangerously overfilled rubber dingy going over the water.

I am reminded that Labour's 2019 general election manifesto proposed/pledged to give full voting rights to all UK residents - thereby pledging to expand the voting franchise to include literally millions of EU and non-EU residents in the UK.

I have gone out of my way NOT to answer your question because you haven't asked anything relevant and you're not capable of understanding the written words in front of you. That was clear, instantly.

All you have done is made assumptions, twisted words to suit your (incorrect) idea of me to try and point score. It's so boring.

And no, am not a man, lowest kind or otherwise (thanks for further insults!!). You even assumed this wrong.

Well done, I’d do the same.

I have friends with a wide range of different political views, but I couldn't ever be friends with anyone who I found morally reprehensible, so obviously supporters of Reform/Restore etc would be in the bin. They're entitled to hold their views, of course, but they're not the people I would want in my life.

Tented camps are good enough in France. The reason why so many illegals come to Britain is because they get hotels, 3 meals a day, private medical and dental care, free to roam anywhere they like.
No wonder the rest of the world are laughing at us. We need to start using the same model as Poland which is basically fuck off 😬

It's widely known that lawyers and charities advise them what to say in order to get their claims accepted and it is also reported that claims are or were being pushed through just to get the backlog down.

And as for saying it 60 billionty times, you can say it another 60 billionty times, I just don't buy it.

And if Labour have stopped the family reunion visas, it'll be the only thing that they've achieved so far.

Don’t worry, Reform won’t get in and if they did the Irish won’t have to leave. We have had a Common Travel Area since 1922. That won’t ever change.

Yes, I’m struggling to see why op has a problem with that list. The tents comment is clearly making a point rather than a literal plan and the harassment allegations (oddly worded with the usual BBC spin) sound very iffy. More like a lack of manners than actual harassment. Other than that, all sounds sensible.

I imagine the unfriended will be heaving a sigh of relief.

The kind that leaves his wife and children in a war torn country probably wouldn't care if they were on a dangerously overfilled dinghy.

Was it the Guiness company that wouldnt allow any talk of religion or politics at their places of work? Quite clever really.
