Yes, and I doubt very much if we will see his like again.
Now, the politicians are more interested in what they can do for themselves rather than what they can do for the electorate.....how they can make enough to live a life that the rest of us can only dream about.

I always thought John Smith seemed sincere, but then again I used to think Nick Clegg was too. Power corrupts, absolute power etc etc.

Re: The Swarm!

Well I'll be damned if he hasn't done it again! Call me Dave, has once again gone an upset the whiney, hand wringing, British hating, leftist libtards! And how? By using that odious, extremist, obnoxious term "Bunch"!

Yep, the usual suspects of the faux outraged are up on their hind legs once more, yowling & baying, demanding apologies & recompense for the outrageous statement "Bunch of migrants" along with other comments but that one was the kicker right enough!

Like there isn't enough serious problems facing the Country, the tedious cretins of the "opposition" have to get arsey about this! Quite surprised the biggest racist of the lot hasn't had her tuppence worth, mind you, she was probably off somewhere slagging down white males.

It is time that Jeremy Corbyn and his 'bunch' realise that we have enough people in this country who need help and support before we go trying to rescue others. We are full here.

Why do the Middle Eastern Muslim countries not shove their hands in their pockets and accommodate these people?

I think it's time he was ambitious and used a phrase similar to a boat full of illegal turds.

Not that I would use a phrase such as a boat load of turds, I just think a turd is a turd and if we have a boatload of them that is what they should be called.

The images of the French illegals comes to mind, they supposedly where protesting against unhealthy conditions etc, me, I saw loads of folk at the seaside enjoying themselves.

If they are that healthy as to run around a port they should stay in France it's obviously good for them.

Hey now hang on, if they did offer, the boat load of turds would still prefer to come here.

Why? Because nobody would ever call them a boat load of turds and they would be FREE to ****e on the Country that takes them in.

Re: The Swarm!

yes, you are right.
Look at the furore created by immigrants having to wear wristbands in their accommodation so that the staff could identify genuine claimants and feed them.
No-one is shooting at them or bombing them...just making sure they can be identified.
If they don't want these to show when they are out and about then wear long sleeves...it isn't warm enough for T shirts anyway.
At some point this system must have been subject to abuse for this to be adopted.
Many of those in Calais are not refugees, but economic migrants. A refugee would take refuge in the first non hostile country they reached. They would not trek thousands of miles just so that they could come here...and as I have said...Why don't the Rich Saudis take some of their muslim brothers?
Thier culture is similar, the religion is the same.

Whoa hang on, 30 odd years ago four friends of mine were made redundant 3 got jobs in Saudi the fourth was faced with the dole, I asked him, could you not have got a job in Saudi?
His reply was, hell less I'm a black man, the Saudis treat the whites like sh'ite what chance would I have?
I'm staying where I was born and can be safe.

Re: The Swarm!

Less, these are not black men.....they are muslims, the same colour, the same creed as Saudis.
The arabian countries are dragging their feet...doing sod all about their own brothers...while expecting the bleeding heart liberals in Europe to give these people homes, jobs, health care and school their children.
All the while they are in Europe...are they obeying the law?
If they come here they do not want to adapt to our way of life....they want to try to get us to adapt to their seventh century laws and rules.
Do you think that would happen if you or I went to Saudi...or any other muslim country(not that I would)?

If we air these views we are called racist, thereby any healthy open debate about what is going on is stifled....but we all know we are thinking the same things...even those who do not voice them

Re: The Swarm!

BBC1 are showing a documentary just now. Children Saved From The Nazi: A Hero's Story. Recommended viewing for you Hateful 8 ....I know there's currently only 4 of you but another 4 will be along pretty soon I am sure. Get it on iPlayer or catch- up.
Oh yes and I'll post the Huff Post link tomorrow to Peter Capaldi's YouTube video. To quote HP's Eve Hartley " Actor and philanthropist Peter Capaldi has recorded a powerful but simple message in support of refugees after a visit to a camp in Jordan with the UNHCR.

That has to be one of the most horrendous comments ever made. Shame on you.

71 years ago today, on the 27th January, the prisoners who had survived the horror of Auschwitz were freed - think on - has progress been made?

Whatever your views on the Calais situation, there's no excuse for that sort of hateful bile. Pathetic.
