Yesterday I was purchasing a month’s supply of tuna from the wonderful Aldi supermarket. Just prior to that I’d purchased some concentrated glyphosphate (Roundup, basically) from a B&Q warehouse. My my those places make me chuckle.
Anyway, why I’m mentioning this is because on the way home I saw a giant billboard advertising for the Tory party. It said, and I quote almost verbatim (As my memory is hopeless…)
It’s not racist to impose sensible immigration limits. Are you thinking what we’re thinking?
To which my response was a very loud and resounding:
No. You wankers.
See, I disagree with what the government, indeed, what governments all over the world are doing with respect to immigration. They are trying to stigmatise immigrants of all kinds, and seemingly associate the term with things like “Burden”, “Cost” and “Risk”. Oh, in case you weren’t aware, preventing people from migrating to the UK somehow makes the place safer, reduces crime and make the UK a better place.
Err, hello?
Oh boy this stuff makes me mad. You see, for a start, a lot of immigrants are totally legal. They come here to live and work, they pay their taxes and their N.I. and as far as I am concerned good luck to them. Then there are some illegal immigrants who come here and work and don’t pay taxes as they’re off the radar. Now these guys are on marshy ground but, usually, they’re doing crap jobs that native English people refuse to do and to be honest I wonder if the UK’s production and crap-job sector could survive without them. Finally you have the illegal immigrants who come to the UK and somehow manage to sneak on to the end of the dole queue. Ok, now these guys *are* bein cheeky and do represent a drain on the UK economy but hey, you know what, so are the rest of the doley wasters.
See, these jobs that the migrants are “Stealing” are not being stolen at all. They’re available because the chavs native unemployed are too idle or too arrogant to do them. Things such as 12hr night shifts in plastics factories, or night shifts in freezer warehosues for starters. So what are the native unemployed doing? Claiming dole. And you can bet your arse they lead the numbers of dole-claiming migrants by a little more than a nose.
Where am I going with this? Anyone who knows me knows that I hate the benefits system. There should be a temporary safety net for people who find themselves sick or out of work, but temporary it should be. The flagrant abuse of the system by Briton’s is responsible for so much it’s absurd. The gorgeous Coley has had first hand experience with the very people I mention and verifies the incredibly negative impact it has on society.
I don’t think the new government should impose immigration limits. I think for every honest hard working foreign chap that comes in, one lazy layabout pot-smoking, Special-Brew-drinking chav should be punted to shores afar. That’s right. Punted. And no, not on a boat.
“Imposing immigration limits is not racist” ? More like xenophobic I reckon. People who think Britain should be for the British are probably some of the most boring you’ll ever meet, not to mention some of the silliest. Bring on the hot sauce and let everyone get along.
