"One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half.-----Sir Winston Churchill
I'm all for diversity but when it gets crazy like this:
EU adds new member states from the old soviet bloc.
Upto 10 million people from the soviet bloc are looking to move to pastures new in Europe, the United Kingdom has agreed to take in upto 1million of these refugess who will be given housing and benefits on arrival of 110 uk pounds a week.
Now consider this a person of the age of 65 in the UK is entitled to 72 uk pounds a week pension for this he has had to pay tax and national insurance contributions for his entire working life. Now someone can move to this country from abroad and claim 50% more in benefits without contributing a penny to the nations coffers.
And people wonder why 47% of the nations population when asked if they wanted to move away to another country said yes /shakes head in pity.
