It's all from tax payers, so it could be used for anything- NHS, paying down debt, investment in new industry etc. Far more appropriate than paying for hotels to be filled with illegal migrants. It DOES matter. We were sold Brexit on the lie of money being diverted to the NHS etc. So suggesting we stop helping foreigners so that we'd be able to help our own who are struggling sticks in the throat a bit.

As for the travel industry, can’t imagine how hard its being hit right now. Everyone is scared of spending not knowing what is around the corner. Holidays, or should that be, second/third & winter holidays will come in for some serious questioning by most. At a time when many of us just feel like we need an ounce of sunshine to up our spirits. Oh well, not too long before Therme gets built.

Brexit has no bearing on the the point I made whatsoever. Migrants came before it happened and have done since. They still cost money. Quite simply, money currently used to house, feed etc all these migrants comes out of current budgets. Without that demand the money could go anywhere within government spending. Our system has been fucked for many years, and is progressively getting worse. We all know why, though many won't admit it- too many mps, councils etc scared of saying things as they are. The same thinking which allowed the grooming gangs to go unchecked for so long. The same thinking that has prevented mps from sorting out borders properly. A social/political balls up of epic proportions with its inevitable consequences. And as an aside the nhs has had massive amounts of money thrown at it in recent years, more than the supposed brexit savings. The figures are available.

The same thinking which allowed the grooming gangs to go unchecked for so long. Nobody is scared of saying anything. We're not in the position we're in now because of the boats coming in, it's that simple. Covid, Putin, failure to transition to renewables when we should have; Brexit, over reliance on foreign energy and products. How long down that list before you get to immigration?? It's way down in the pecking order for voter concerns at the moment because most know it's not the issue. If the argument is that times are tough so we shouldn't take anymore refugees; then I assume this will mean the same for the Royal Family? Temporarily suspended until the recession is over? It's a constant bloody cycle - times get tough and it's immigration to blame. It's been the same on here coming from a select few in recent days. 5 million a day is pittance compared to the 4 plus billion we lose a year to tax avoidance.

For what it's worth, I'm not saying we should. Just making the point that if folk are saying we should stop letting refugees in because we're in crisis, then that logic should be applied across the board. How's your morning? Have any immigrants shat in your breakfast yet? Hope you don't have to drive through any foreign shitholes on your way to work.

It’s not a foreign shithole as it’s in Bolton, England so it’s an English shithole that’s full of foreigners. Edited November 4, 20223 yr by royal white

November 4, 20223 yr Out of respect to people who have used this thread to talk about their issues can we keep this to mental health issues ? Not having a go at anyone as it is WWAys tradition that threads go off at a tangent but be good to keep this one a 'safe place' and avoid the bickering that is creeping in. Just my opinion btw !
