.....that is after all why people blame immigrants isn't it?
Actually, no!! and you are attempting to misinterpret what others have said; namely it is not immigrants per se only those economic migrants that arrive with absolutely nothing having heard on the grape vine that once in the UK they are given free accommodation, benefits and spending money!

If you can't appreciate how that situation riles a very large percentage of the population it is obviously impossible to sensibly conduct a conversation with you.
The situation you have outlined isn't true though. Do you get so riled by other fairy tales?


Immigrants are net contributions to the economy, and are less likely to claim benefits.
So you believe in fairy tales then. Many undoubtedly do but those that hope across the Channel or arrive here illegally are a drain on the economy.

Personally I believe that as a nation we should provide refuge to those in need and who are, or who at risk of persecution in their own country. In 2022 75% of initial decisions were approved for asylum or other protection. An asylum seeker lives off around £7 per day. £7.

There are over 1000 people in the medical profession who arrived as refugees or asylum seekers - real drain on the economy that one.

As a nation we have done it before, and I hope we continue to do it again. To me that is a British value, and it's something we should be proud of.

Which is ironic, as it's what so many people who are so proud of their country get so het up about.

Am I saying everyone landing on these shores is an angel or her for the right reason, no. I'd like to think that if I or our nation had a time of need that we would be welcomed to other parts of the world.

Ultimately, the only thing separating us from them is the lottery of life and the vagina, we just happend to enter this world from.

All my lads mates are desperate for the new England shirt too - probably all woke snowflakes.

So much for taking back control of our borders after Brexit. Wonder how many passionate Brexiteers now see the lie for what it is. We always had more powers to control our borders than we used. Now so even more and yet numbers are at a record high.

I will always say 'we' when referring to Pompey, England, the Uk, Europe or the World.

I hope it is kind of tongue in cheek when you say that some may be offended if you refer to your own country as we.

I think the FA are ****** shocking btw, they must have known this would kick up a storm. Virtue signalling A holes the lot of them. Have they dropped the "taking the knee" BS yet? I missed the beginning of the embarrassment last night.
Of course you do...

Thank you Green, I do appreciate your kind words. It is heartening to know that we can disagree, polarised often, but the civility remains.

Well not really. The view that calling the other team a foreign team seems to upset some people. As I see it we were playing Brazil which is another nation, it was billed as an international match, so referring to my team as England might be offensive.

Personally, the fact that you can come on this site as a supporter of our biggest rival is testament to show just how civilised football fans can be. I think that it is credit to yourself and members of this board that you do. Scummer.
