Hey, so we can exchange an airport that's never going to be finished against housing for immigrants? Sounds like a great deal to me.
What the hell are you talking about?
Maybe you guys need to be more like the United States in welcoming immigrants and refugees? Aside from the whole illegal immigrant deal.
We were and we ended up with this crisis.
The problem is that most of these people trying to get into the heart of Europe aren't real refugees. If they were, they would stop in the nearest country that is at peace, not try to get to Germany and the UK. They just want to get money from the rich welfare states. Europe has no obligation to let economic migrants in.

They all have to pass through Italy, Turkey and the Balkans. None of these countries or regions are at war - as part of the asylum seeking process you are supposed to claim asylum at the first safe country you're in; far be it claiming asylum in Greece, Turkey, Italy, Malta or any other country in the Balkans, the majority don't want asylum there they want passage into Germany. And at least for Britain anyways, the majority of our immigrants come from countries where there are no war to begin with, places like China, India, Pakistan, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Eastern Europe e.t.c. whilst with exception to Nigerians and Ugandans fleeing two kinds of crazy (actual refugees), our refugees are coming through France and should be claiming asylum there. And of our refugees? Majority come from Pakistan or Eritrea with Syria in third. No war, no war and war. Granted war status is not what's important, what's important is whether they have reasonable fears for their life should they return, and that's what counts.
LW, Britain isn't full, the cities are just densely populated due in great part to planning laws and regulations that block self-builds and artificially limit the space for new developments.
You sound like you ate the Daily Mail for breakfast and have decided to shit it out on the forum. "Work towards making Britain into the country they left" -- where do you get this from?
I can't think of a way the Trojan Horse schools were in any way British and when you're operating under a different law court you can't get any more separate than if you were in an enclave. Though to what extent it can be said you're in an enclave when you're the majority is another matter entirely. Furthermore Britain is full because building more houses isn't going to do shit to the schools, hospitals, prisons, water and energy demands increasing beyond their cope for stupid ideological reasons; it's beyond the physical space - in so many ways it's an unaffordable policy. Though granted we need to build more houses anyways just to deal with regular immigration. I know people who flout the regulations in the countryside by doing it in plain view (everyone assumes they're legit). They clear acres of protected wildlife by poisoning the trees (that way they're classed as dead and you can get the council to clear them for you, leaving development space). The English countryside does not need a hundred more of those people, let alone 300,000, as much as I like them. I like them as people but they're walking ecological disasters, planning permissions exist for a reason; and when it's not ecological it's safety and practicality. My area for example is a perfect example of this, lots of development and refurbishment going on but you have to get planning permission the last 10 years here's why: There's been a 300m lethal exclusion zone caused by a ruptured gas pipe, everyone who lives by the waterfront will not get fibre optics for another few decades, several WWII bombs were hit by diggers including one of the largest in recent history and someone accidentally broke into a weed farm. Actually the last one might have been inevitable. Still, we've also got plenty of people who don't follow the regulations and end up undermining their neighbours home, you take your pick.
There have been years of practically uncontrolled, mass immigration?
I had you pegged for a troll, not a reactionary.
It's not a secret, Labour campaigned for mass immigration and got it for a decade. It was one of their selling points, then it was one of the things New Labour had to backpedal on immensely. In 1997 and 2010, net annual immigration quadrupled, and the UK population was boosted by more than 2.2 million immigrants, more than twice the population of Birmingham. In Labour’s last term in government, 2005-2010, net migration reached on average 247,000 a year. It's now 335,000 a year, probably more.
Labour ministers deliberately encouraged mass immigration to diversify Britain over the past decade, a former Downing Street adviser has claimed.
Andrew Neather said the mass influx of migrant workers seen in recent years was not the result of a mistake or miscalculation but rather a policy the party preferred not to reveal to its core voters.
He said the strategy was intended to fill gaps in the labour market and make the UK more multicultural, at the same time as scoring political points against the Opposition.Needless to say this is retarded on so many levels and resulted in a failure that ironically wipe out multicultural Britain and left it with a segregated entity that wasn't much of anything beyond Rotherham-tier idiocy. So in short yeah there have been years of practically uncontrolled, mass immigration; you don't go from minorities being the majority of your capital and 1/5 your country without either mass death or mass immigration, and we haven't had the former.
Wait, there are almost as many Russians applying for asylum in the EU as Iraqis? What's happening over there?
It's Russia
