@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx I didn't assume that, I said I'd try to seek asylum there as it's the nearest safe country. I would return to the UK with my family as soon as it was safe to do so.
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx I'm talking about all immigration, but we have a serious problem with illegal immigration at the moment. Also I'm not obsessed with anything, I just don't agree with your position. Legal immigration should be controlled through an application process based on what skills we need
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx I speak English fine thanks, just a simple mistake whilst typing and doing other stuff. And I didn't assume I'd be entitled to choose a country, I said I'd try the nearest safe country, which happens to be France
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx France is part of mainland Europe, not a small island like the UK, big difference. And I would seek asylum until the war ended and then return home, making sure my family was safe with me. Also how does this make me entitled? Not sure where you inferred that from?
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx You are jumping to some big conclusions to try and make your point. This is assuming that all of the people coming across on boats are fleeing war. Also why don't you address my point that I would take my family with me rather than just leaving them behind?
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx I mentioned France as it's the nearest country to the UK and it's a safe country to go to, that's where refugees are supposed to seek asylum until it's safe to go back
@Heccles94 Who got those people together and financed the whole operation? Paid the workers, hired the factory, developed the product, sourced the materials, did the research and development? Who's money did they use to do all of that?
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx I didn't sew anything, that all happened before I was born (which is a long time ago). I'd definitely want somewhere safe to go if war broke out here , but I'd go there legally and take my family with me. Probably France as it's close by and we'd be safe
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx Not at first because the situation has been allowed to get out of hand, but there are plenty of young people who would love the opportunity to train up and take those jobs
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx Why we are allowing more and more people into the UK when you can't get to see a doctor, housing is scarce, roads are busier, classroom sizes are increasing, govt spending is going up etc... it's because the country does not have the infrastructure to support all of these people
@HeleneFrenchie@SamCKx A governments first obligation is to the citizens it represents, not people from elsewhere in the world, they have their own governments to look after them. I'm not talking about skin colour or where anyone has come from, just the numbers.
