It's right above me, so ain't gonna bother repeating it all, just letting him know he's been noticed and agreed with.
My God, my parents read the Daily Mail and actually seem to believe some of it, and it's just patently ridiculous the way they can link almost any new article to immigrants. They seem to blame immigrants for everything from wheelie bins to testicular cancer. It's scary that the Sun seems to have better journalism than the Mail, when the Mail at least looks like an adult paper. It amazes me when you see wars, disasters, financial chaos on other newspaper front pages, and the Mail is leading with a tale about immigrants getting a free hat, or someone getting the wrong colour of wheely bin.
They and most papers vastly exaggerate the amount of immigrants in the country and how much they get in terms in of benefits. I'm always suspicious of the tales of families on benefits saying they're pulling in over £100,000 a year in benefits, when I know from my own experience when unemployed I was getting about £45 a week and nothing else, which could maybe be inflated by not paying NI and income tax etc, but still, it's a long step from what I experienced to these families supposedly living in luxury. I'm also sick of the constant witch hunt on people on benefits when MPs and bankers have screwed more out of this country than entire cities of benefit fraudsters. I do believe the majority of people on benefits are there because they need to be, and sure we should deal with the bad apples, but not blame all of them for the few.
I also agree that immigrants should be allowed to work here, I'd even be fine with allowing them to work for just benefit rates, as they'd still be better off than what they'd escaped, if they're seeking asylum. Skilled workers can obviously be placed where they'll do the most good, unskilled workers, well there's more than enough cleaning, litter collection, gardening, etc that needs doing, and doesn't even need a good basis in English language. Then we offer education in English and help them to integrate. Then they can truly become a useful member of our society.
For me, if someone is contributing to Britain, they're British enough for me. (unless they're French, of course)
^ sheesh, yes, it's a joke!
, and I don't really believe in there ways but I can see why people are starting to support them, becuase they are fed up with foreigners stealing jobs and parliamentary partyies such as Labour and Conservative doing bugger all about it, like bus drivers being made redundent for some polish person who will work for a lower wage, for me it's UKIP becuase I hate the EU, they just let anyone come in as they please, like rapists, murderers and thieves becuase their country is part of the EU, it makes Britain feel like the dumping ground of Europe. Anyway back to subject, the BNP and NF are racist and always will be, but Britain is a white nation and whites should be the majority of the population but you need some people of different ethical backgrounds otherwise there would be no charcater in the country.
