Never said you were...............and as for writing to my MP..well a sh*t lot of good that would do..

ENGLAND

Quote:
His application was initially turned down in 1994 but accepted in 2000 and he was given temporary leave to remain until 2004, by which time he was in Guantanamo Bay.


taking the [edited by admin]...

Quote:
Mr Mohamed has no relatives in Britain and his sister and brother are both US citizens.

A housing association is currently applying for possession of the flat he used to live in, saying it had been sublet without permission. An Asian couple are currently living there.

their money,


Would that be the money they illegally earn, since they are not supposed to have jobs, or the benefits they get out of our tax money?

If someone flees their country in genuine fear of their life, they should make any asylum claim at their EU port of entry. Not secreet themselves across Europe and claim asylum once they get caught or when they arrive in the most welcoming economy.
That isn't genuine fear - it's economic choice.
These people are not our problem and we should not allow them in.


hear hear, just a pity those with noses in troughs at westminster arent of the same opinion, theyve lined thier nests, and sod the country

I had to laugh at the news the other day. People were complaining that a contract to build trains had gone to a foreign company when it could have gone to the BRITISH trainmaker Bombardier. FFS Bombardier are French. :roll:
