Poms moaning about immigrants!!!
Enoch Powell, from Wiki. ..........

The interviewer then asked him, "what do you see as the likely prospect now? Still the 'River Tiber foaming with blood'?":

My prospect is that, politicians of all parties will say "Well Enoch Powell is right, we don't say that in public but we know it in private, Enoch Powell is right and it will no doubt develop as he says. But it's better for us to do nothing now, and let it happen perhaps after our time, than to seize the many poisonous nettles which we would have to seize if we were at this stage going to attempt to avert the outcome." So let it go on until a third of Central London, a third of Birmingham, Wolverhampton, are coloured, until the Civil War comes, let it go on. We won't be blamed, we'll either have gone or we'll slip out from under somehow.[34]

True politicians ?

They should ask the Germans to organise the migrant crossings. They cocked up crossing the Channel completely in World War II.

The residents of Skegness are kicking off about the number of migrants being sent to the town and the number of hotels being taken over to accommodate them. A portent for what may happen in other parts of the country?

Look North also featured two asylum seekers who had come from Syria and are being accommodated in a requisitioned hotel in Hull after spending some time at Manston. They told the interviewer that they had left Syria over 5 years ago and had been living in Turkey before coming to the UK a month ago.

The hotel mentioned in the previous post has now taken in it's quota of asylum seekers. The consequences ? 40 staff made redundant because the hotel doesn't have any work for them any more..

More than two dozen unaccompanied underage migrants rescued by the humanitarian ship Ocean Viking and taken in by France have gone missing from their reception centre, local authorities have said.
The council in the southern Var department said the public prosecutor had been told that 26 of 44 young people under full legal age at the centre had run away.

"Three of the 44 minors had already run away... after being taken into care", the department's president Jean-Louis Masson told Le Figaro newspaper. On Thursday morning there were 23 more minors missing", he added. "This was foreseeable for us," Christophe Paquette, deputy director general in charge of solidarity at the Var departmental council, told AFP.

Sometime this week, the world population passed 8 billion.

Although why most of them seem to want to live in San Antonio or Skegness, I haven't quite worked out.

I blame country music.

Latest figures for Ireland are 17% are not born in that country, but for what could we hope with that sh**lifter Varadkar in and out of power? ~X(

And now we go across to our fragrant nubile Dublin reporter who will clarify the issue;

This will not end well, but the UK can afford to pour money overseas at ‘good’ causes which improve the image of the local TPTB whilst;

The ‘conservatives’ continue in their kamikaze dive into oblivion so’s they can be rebuilt and reflown as a sensible party over a few decades, maybe…💩

According to 'The Times'
"Britain has not deported a single Channel migrant to France under its post-Brexit returns policy, Home Office figures have revealed."

Maybe it is time for SA to start deporting the English criminals that pervert justice there...

Some very close to the seat of power here in Britain...

From The Times:

Dozens of migrants with suspected diphtheria have been moved from the Manston processing centre in Kent to hotels around the country.

There are now more than 70 suspected cases of diphtheria among those who in recent weeks have been moved from the facility.

Again from The Times:

Migrants with suspected infections of highly contagious diseases will be ordered to isolate in their rooms to prevent them spreading to the general population.

Emergency public health guidance has been issued to hotels following growing outbreaks of skin infections such as diphtheria, scabies, group A Strep and MRSA, respiratory infections such as flu and Covid-19, and gastrointestinal infections such as norovirus.

Genius! That'll work well. Exactly who do the Tories think they are convincing?
