"Sorry Jim, but that's completely wrong."
Nope - been there, done that
a search of "leftie garbage" should do the trick
Here isn't and has never been "uncontrolled immigration" - a racist myth
If there had, Britain and all wealthier countries would be crammed full of immigrants seeking a better life
If my points are ludicrous, they should be easy to shoot down - "I see no drones", as Nelson would have said if he'd been around
We owe the third World big time - we manipulated their economies, their politics and their cultures to serve the Empire and we made sure the former Colonies were in 'A safe pair of hands' when we left - what is happening now in Pakistan is as good as example as any of the mess we left behind

Morally, we should be committed to accepting refugees from dictatorships we helped to set up and continued to support with arms and money - our contradictory attitude to The Arab Spring is another pretty good example of our indifference and self interest

As far as economic migrants are concerned, we fill our shops with goods produced under near-slave conditions, and so become part of those horrific conditions.

You mentioned Sharia Law - an abhorrent practice, but no less horrific than letting Christian clergymen loose to rape children - very few religious groups can take the high-ground when it comes to the treatment of women
These practices will only end when action is taken within the societies, and that will be don by persuasion and international encouragement, not using them as a weapon to besmear and eject foreigners from Britain, as your lot constantly do

Roadside ID checks - Hitler must be tap-dancing in his bunker - what a frighteningly nasty brave new world you aspire to
This mornings 'Times' (Irish edition) welcomes the fact (in large headlines) that 10,000 people gained Irish citizenship here last year - beats 'Rule Britannia' any day of the week   

Feel free to deal with any of these suggestions in as much detail as you wish, but do so as an adult with a modicum of intelligence that has been, so far missing from your postings
