First topic message reminder :

'I'm sorry for what we've put you through': Lily Allen apologises 'on behalf of my country' after breaking down in tears during a visit to the Jungle in Calais

The 31-year-old singer broke down in tears at one point during a meeting with a boy aged 13 from Afghanistan, who has risked his life trying to board UK-bound lorries.
The teenager, who said his father lives in Birmingham, has been camped at the Jungle on the edge of the northern French port city for two months.
During their meeting, Allen told him: ‘It just seems that at three different intervals in this young boy’s life, the English in particular have put you in danger.

Why? What has each Briton done personally to those people? If you mean the politicians who started all this fucking mess, then fair enough. Don't forget, there's a huge mix of people on this island of all ethnic backgrounds who consider themselves British.

Perhaps he prefers English culture? Hard to believe, I know.

nothing to do with the benefits then, so it should be ok to stop them until he has contributed for 5 years.

wow that's easy isn't it.

of course those people are actually in a safe country, France, part of the EU, not alleppo, so if it isn't safe there then why do the remoaniacs want us to stay in the eu.

Membership of the EU has never meant freedom from poverty and squalor - a slip up by those who drew up the ECHR, I think.

Yes, that's why we have our own homegrown homeless and elderly dying each winter from the cold.

Not safe from poverty and squalor, as I pointed out.

So why would anyone want to come here then? There must be at least one reason? Perhaps two?

I have a question about bob geldof, he said he would leave for good if the brexit won. Probably worth a few thousand votes for leave I know, question is, is he waiting for russell brand to shove the firework up his arse for the tories winning the election, or is he waiting for paul o'grady's spare room in venice to be finished?

So there was no exodus to Israel after WW2 then? No refugees after Nazi Germany, held on Cyprus, before being allowed into Israel.

There needn't be a queue - or have we forgotten how to build?

I do agree upon one thing though...

we should never have gotten involved in the first place
and

we should withdraw immediately/stop supplying weapons (then sassy cant whinge about us bombing them)

and from the outset we should have left it to the russians (whos "sphere of influence" it was anyway)

All those Jewish refugees after all that suffering and with no place to go. Israel took them in and then.....well, then they rose up against the people who had been there in the first place and pinched their land off them. Fucking ingrates!

Yes, absolutely. We've all been let down tremendously by our Governments, and that includes all of them. None of them are lily white (scuse the pun)
