Not the Guardian. It begs for money on their website.

  • The entire western world is broken. A world where where white men who created everything have no rights. And foreign immigrants/asylum seekers are given everything.

  • It will be broke if we keep forking out for any illegal immigrant who wades ashore. They admit to 5 mill a day for housing them in hotels, plus 40 quid a week, free dental and health care and educatio

  • What a crass and bigoted statement to make! You should be ashamed of yourself!

Try making factual comments please!

Everyone that researches things. If people do no research they won't know anything.

I suggest you read some litterateur and perhaps some poetry too.

Please enlighten the world as to what brought about the human "un barbaric state" in exactly 1900!

I’d be astonished if you’ve ever done any ‘Research’.


Reading guff on the internet is not ‘research’ especially when a search algorithm is deciding what you get to see.

Our data shows that 62.4 percent of article impressions were from sources rated by that research as left-leaning, whereas 11.3 percent were from sources rated as right-leaning. 26.3 percent of impressions were from news sources that didn’t have ratings

5.5x left to right ratio

 

Huge bias.

Oh i see. You are one of those guys with no proof who just ignores the evidence placed in front of you.

Please complete your 30 second research algorithm and give us all an answer as to what caused the "barbaric" change in 1900 with reputable sources etc.

Research it yourself. I just proved you wrong on google.

 

I dont know you. I'm not responsible for you. 

 

Open your mind, research. Learn.

 

Good luck.

 

 

Goodbye.

What a croc. The foundation of Western World is on the  colonial looting and American foundation is based on slavery. White people have the same rights as others but they are jealous now because other groups are demanding and getting the same rights that Whites enjoyed for centuries.

The reason why people left the UK to live in Thailand is because they cannot afford to live in the U.K , Thailand is hot year round , sex is available for a cheap price  or they can find a younger girlfriend .

   They didn't leave because of how the UK is .

Happier life ?

  They seem to spend all day moaning and complaining about thing 

Certainly the people I keep company with lead happy lives in Thailand. We all know how much better it is for us than being in the UK. 

 

How many here would prefer to be in the UK?

What do UK people do? I didnt know so many dont work.

It was a trick statistic , he included the elderly children, those in jail and various others unable to work .

   Like a working  Muslim Husband and Wife and three kids would be one person working and four people  not working which = 20 % of Muslims working

But you are missing the point. In the UK, if you work you can also get lots of benefits! A Pakistani immigrant neigbour of mine - very pleasant chap - in far west London brought his young wife in (right to family life law), spat out 4 kids in 10 years. Of course, neither she nor the kids could work. He worked 37 hours per week at a menial job paying low salary and paying virtually no taxes, and that led to an avalanche of welfare payments and housing benefit. Naturally, the kids were all born in an NHS hospital and go to state school at tax payers' expense. How does this benefit the country? Broken Britain?

 

And, just for good measure; hard working English friends of ours had their son in same nursery as our son but they lived in the next village. When it came to primary school place they were told that their son was number one on the waiting list at the excellent school. Because it was not their nearest school they had no priority. Some time later they inquired as to whether their son had a school place. Now they were told their son was number 4 on the wait list. How could this be? Oh, an immigrant family who just arrived (and never contributed taxes) had got priority over their son. How can this be right? Our friends' son never got to go to the same good school. Maybe now, some here can see the gist of the issues in the UK.

Do you oppose benefits being paid to the poor or benefits being paid to brown people ?

   The benefits in question are available to all British citizens and plenty of British people claim the same benefits as well 

  The benefit money paid out also goes straight back into the local economy

 If you can't afford to support yourself and family then don't have children.

Not necessarily true when the housing benefit paid out goes to an overseas landlord.

Because it’s a reliable source with that offers reporting on a broad spectrum of subjects.

 

That said you’ll not find much discussion of what dress some tv star wore last night, or anything on the lover’s tiff going on between someone who was once in a girl band.

I've never kept any slaves, I'm not American.

Why should I accept any blame for something I didn't do in a country I've never lived?

Great idea, then your country will have to import even more immigrants to keep it running.

I've never wanted to work.

But sadly nobody ever offered me free money, so I had to work.

(Except when I was in higher education, managed to stretch that out for 7 years)

You know an awful lot more about your neighbors than ever did I.

 

Or perhaps not.
