It's the racism implicit in your criticism of the English celebrating their national day that concerns me BT. It's something you constantly harp on about, but on August 14th, St David's Day, St Patrick's Day etc, you're quiet as a church mouse.
Never let the truth get in the way of Labour dogma. BT
Labour let in far too many immigrants, the voters didn’t like it and Labour and the Tory’s promised to reduce migration. The developer of the hostile environment policy and the decision on Windrush cards was Alan Johnson Labour Home Secretary in 2009 -10. Voters removed him and May was left with a policy being implemented.

So...is Labour policy to allow illegal immigrants to stay?
That's a bit of a change from Alan Johnson's "hostile environment", eh?
Nit picking and being pedantic does not excuse institutional racism.
Johnson referred to our system creating a hostile environment for immigrants who did not play by the Queensbury rules.
May and Rudd have made it their way to target and deport immigrants who have played by the Queensbury rules their whole lives, but then again the Windrush generation are black so in Tory eyes that doesn't really matter.
Fair play to the lefty rag BT, at least they were truthful and accurate in their headline, regarding the creation of a hostile environment for ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. For some reason you chose to use the words 'non-british aliens' instead. I wonder why you chose to distort the truth ? Do you have an objection to a government creating a hostile environment for anyone, never mind immigrants, acting illegally ? And if so, why ?
I do have a major problem with any government creating an hostile environment within its own boundaries.
We are not living in Stalinist Russia, not yet anyway, but give her time...
Attachment 9294
"Flags are divisive, they represent exclusion to other non-members of their tribe or clan."
What utter drivel BT, why would anyone feel excluded by an English flag flying in England ? No one is forced to live in England, if they choose to do so, as millions of foreigners do, then clearly our flag holds no fears for them.
I lived in France for eight years, for all of that time the Tricolore flew over every public building, on July 14th they didn't just fly the Tricolore, every building was festooned with them, you couldn't move for them. Never once did I feel the flag was divisive, threatening or representing exclusion. I was living in France, the French were flying their national flag, it all seemed perfectly natural, why on earth wouldn't they ?
You do exist a a weird and wonderful world BT. You want to try the real one sometimes, where ordinary people aren't afraid of flags.
