eastbank Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 That is the right wing media's echo chamber. Read my link and you will see how the Daily Mail has taken something innocuous and turned it in to their usual xenophobic, anti-poor, anti-charitable and anti anything good nonsense. anti-poor....these migrants are loaded...with the free handouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splodgeyAl Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I'm so pleased the DM has told me what a horrible person I am, spending some of my hard earned money helping with some friends' kids' education - shame on me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all Eastbank, but the LibDem bit of the coalition can hardly be seen as anti-immigrant (quite the reverse) and Dave will not be in a hurry to pass any more laws to shake the coalition for a while. Like I say; Dont hold your breath. This is not in the coalition agreement so Dave and Nick won't be rushing to fix it. Doesn't mean Mrs Harman was any less stupid for saying wot she said, but it's not the first stupid thing she has said and probably won't be the last.

Quite so Mecky, but no matter how often the truth is told, some people prefer to read and believe the tripe the tabloids feed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asylum seekers are given council properties in Sheffield ahead of Sheffielders and weekly benefits. And they are welcomed, poached even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh? Can you tell me where you got this information from? BTW, an asylum seeker is not a migrant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcat Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I look forward to hearing about her suing them then, If that's not in the news then Ill take it that your the type that would excuse them if you could them going a blind man's pockets in the street. The truth will come out and you or the Mail will be right, be nice to see which. Why would she sue? The press prints garbage like this daily and gets away with it. You will be telling me the Press is regulated next.
