AIBU to worry about large numbers of undocumented men arriving in Spain?

[MaturingCheeseball]

Thousands of young men from Morocco and beyond swimming to Spain. Spain obviously has encouraged the problem with their amnesty for existing migrants, but thousands more arriving with no means of support and undocumented is going to cause huge problems. Large numbers will no doubt be ultimately trying to reach the UK.

It’s harsh, but we cannot accept infinite numbers of men.

She was being sarcastic.

No one has sad that though. But you can’t up claims and expect to get away with it.

In the meantime, there are many visitors going to Morocco for Marrakesh, the Atlas Mountains, Essaouira, Casablanca, Desert safaris and so on. I can see why some will leave places like Sudan if they can but Morocco?

Anyway, I reckon a lot of them will end up in Spain and France. French is spoken in Morocco following French rule/protectorate way back. Marine le Pen is watching I reckon.

All men. The poor women left behind to try to exist.

I did think that at first, but based on other threads, I wouldn’t be too sure.

Every inaccuracy should be challenged.

It's not shameful. Deadpan works better spoken. A little lesson for me.

Migration Observatory, Gov’s own website, BBC, House of Commons library. All robust sources.

What established route is that? You can’t claim asylum until you arrive into the country.

Where did you get that info from about Italy?

At the moment the news is about a Morrocan man who died under police restraint while pleading for help

What are they claiming asylum from? AFAIK there isn't a war on in North Africa.

I was being sarcastic. That will be the case with other comments you may have read on other threads. It's an expression of my despair that despite a basic education having been compulsory since 1870 in England, so many people swallow what they read without question.

Apologies, in that case. I have read posts by people seriously stating that most rape is committed by immigrants/illegals.

Yes do you want to show the actual information then, as you were the one who made claims.

If you search my posts, there are two links to articles explaining it.

Ok thank you.

No need to apologise but I appreciate it.

That people believe most rape is committed by immigrants (for which read men of Pakistani, Bangladeshi or African heritage who may or may not be here legally) helps me understand how it can be the case that 1 in 6 of the adult population has the numeracy skills expected of an 11-year old.

Because generally its less common for women to be able to swim in many countries. Globally 57% of men report that they can swim, its only 32% of women.

Did you want to point to something in particular?

Or are you just proving @IdaGlossop ‘s point?

Being an asylum seeker doesn’t equal no skills. They are not allowed to work whilst their claim is being processed. That is a government failure, not the fault of the people seeking asylum.

Per capita?

Have you not heard of the Epstein files?

Talking of poor numerical skills ...

Why is that do you think?

"Recent reporting and FOI-based analyses show foreign nationals are disproportionately represented in some UK sexual‑offence statistics:"

Did you want to point to something in particular? Yes this ^
