Illegals and Failed Asylum Seekers

[mickd1961]

123, please read my post again; I did not blame asylum seekers for the various shortfalls in our society and I have als stated that were we to be in their shoes, we too may be seeking a better life somewhere else. I have also pointed out, possibly in another thread, that you can’t just turn the boats around and send them back as that would contravene the UN convention regarding those seeking asylum. The point that I was trying to make was that unlimited immigration is ultimately unsustainable, given the potential numbers that could come from Africa and other war-torn and climate affected countries. I don’t know what the answer is but it cannot be that living conditions in the UK, or Europe for that matter, are adversely affected because our infrastructure is being overwhelmed. There would come a point, I suspect, that the far right would exploit the situation for their own ends and the we would be faced with real problems. I genuinely feel for those, especially with young children, just trying to find themselves a decent life. Taking real steps to mitigate climate change and providing assistance for some parts of the World to build their own infrastructure would surely be the way forward, although what you do about some of the violent dictators around the World that care not one jot for anyone but themselves, I do not know. Look how migrants are being treated by Belarus, just pawns in a ruthless dictator’s game, disgraceful. The UK alone cannot solve the problems of the World, sadly.

In your very limited defence the nearest you'd have got to a space bar at school was on the secretary's type writer.

Mobile phones and laptops would have been fantastical concepts in Dan Dare and the Mekon and tablets either came down from mountains or were taken only when ill.

You old fart 😊 .
