We are reaping the fruits of our forefathers' actions. Mainly Italians actually. But since Eritrea gained independence they've been nothing but trouble. A one (Muslim) party state where for freedom of expression they rank lower than North Korea, border disputes leading to battles with neighbours Ethiopia and Djibouti, UN sanctions for undermining peace in Somalia. These are the actions of Eritreans, not their former occupiers. Sometimes you just have to face facts. They'll bring trouble to wherever they travel. Good luck Netherlands. 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a country the size of the USA, third largest in the World, with a population of 340 million, you are supposed to be a superpower and BIDEN and TRUMP is the best you can offer up to the World and the American people?

A declining birthrate and ageing population are a major problem for western societies. Especially with that ageing population becoming increasingly dependent upon social spending. It is virtually politically impossible to make meaningful reductions to that level of social spending. The only real option ( short of large scale tax increases - political suicide) is to increase your population. "Breeding your own" (cynical but accurate description) takes far too long. The solution is to import people, thus increasing the "tax base". Business (which is very influential) likes this, it is a source of cheap labour, basically untainted (as they see it) by associated with organised labour. Certain political groups also approve it - if they consider immigrants more likely to vote for them; although that may be a double edged weapon! Public opinion is often opposed, but to be honest that only matters depending upon where the country is in its election cycle - the UK is in election year so the subject is exercising political minds. They note that the Netherlands ignored it and their political establishment came unstuck last year - not that so far, does that seem to be reflected in a change of government! Mass immigration does not work generally for the country but as you say the big bosses of businesses like it because new immigrants often work for less than the going rate and undermine the British workers . The migrants are happy with their wage which is much higher than their home country pays . They will send money to their relatives in their homeland , instead of it going into the UK economy . New immigrants often stay cheaply in the UK by living in grossly overcrowded accommodation . Legal immigrants who are allowed UK visas because being related to a settled immigrant , are often unemployed and claiming benefits . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly, there is cause to aggressively address the issue but I fear the emotional, gut based reaction motivating a majority to forswear reason in a knee jerk move to authoritarian government model. This is the basis for my thinking that the Chinese government model is far too attractive ... we give you peace and economic security ... we do not tolerate any discord with our ruling. Thomas Hobbes versus John Locke in the classic debate as to the purpose of government. Sadly, these types of incidents will only win greater support for the authoritarian right wing parties. Pity then that the lefty liberals play into the hands of the right wing with barking immigration policies not supported by a majority of the population.
