This should probably be moved to the general forum, but whatever!
I don't see the issue, if they are being persecuted in their own country, or move for political/socio-economic reasons (I know some don't fit this criteria) then I don't think we have any right to stop them coming and trying to make a better life. Contrary to The Sun/Daily Mail/Mirror, 95% of immigrants are here to better themselves.
I always say that 95% of every race/culture/religion are decent people, and 5% are complete chav scumbags, same of the English. I don't blame anyone trying to get access into our country as its one of the best in the world, the problem I have is with our elected governments not doing enough to stop illegal immigrants.
Dave, When your Smiling, Semper Eadem and the others if you feel so strongly about it, start writing to your local politician, get involved in local politics, find out about different party manifesto's, economic issues & housing issues for immigrants, and vote for the party you feel represents you.
My gripe is with people (maybe its not you) that moan & moan about immigrants, read The Sun for their politics, don't bother voting, and sit on the dole watching Sky Digital, smoking fags and drinking down the boozer while I earn my wages and watch 1/3 of it being taken by the tax man to pay for the chav life style of these people.
