What I take issue with is this apparent 'Guily before proven innocent' approach to all arriving via boat. Yes because we legally can't stop it from happening and we're not a scumbag nation that doesn't look after people. No of course not. But when those concerns harbour on assuming everyone arriving into the UK is a terrorist, rapist or both then yes absolutely they should be shamed. See above Agreed but we don't stop our kindness or reserve it for those that we might like the look of.. That goes the same way for refusing to see or hear any positive about asylum seekers Ta dah! And with that last sentence we are back where we were yesterday. I have never ‘refused to see anything positive about asylum seekers’. I have always maintained there are many genuine. What I object to is this blinkered refusal to see the the not so positive things. And conveniently brush them under the carpet.

I'm addressing the people that believes everyone arriving has a criminal background. 7 minutes ago, redruby said: What I object to is this blinkered refusal to see the the not so positive things.

And this mindset is on full display by posters in this thread by advocating that the home office should ask anyone arriving whether they are ISIS or rapists..

RollingJ Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Funny how most of these 'refugees' appear to to be fit young men - as has been mentioned previously - and never fully explained. Are their women and children not also at risk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy he was interviewing basically said the countries they come from women are second class citizens who are silenced and made to cover up which is why scantily clad drunk young English women are so appealing to them.

I'm not a fan of GB News - it is, with respect - aimed at a certain demographic, but if that comment is to be believed, it doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

Crikey, high ambitions indeed. Not going to look too good on their arm when they go to the annual Doctors and Surgeons conventions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
