Most people "view a Pole as just another human with different culture, wanting to get on for the best of his/her family just like the rest of us." Hardly anyone has a problem with "a" Pole, or a dozen Poles or a hundred. On that sort of scale this country has a long history of being not just tolerant, but positively welcoming.

The issue is entirely about scale - as Mrs Thatcher put it so well, about being swamped.

Why Jo Swinson will lose to labour second place. One style dress in all colours, one coat on a few colours... boring campaign!And BBC in full speed supporting labour.. and lib dems as second choice.

What I wish for doesn't hurt you, especially if you don't value my word, which is what you have suggested in the past.

Sticks and stones and all that.....

Your actions to support Brexit and Boris will have real affects on my family's future. I wish I could just write off these like a few nasty words on a BB. ;)

Hope you develop a brain tumour for Christmas. You can tell us what the NHS service is like. :)

Lest ye forget.

If the last referendum was not binding, why will another be?

K38 , think your wrong , the SNP members of parliament was no more than 6 for years.
Anything over 35 is amazing .

Personally disapointed if its not 45 seats. We will see .

I don't think the skid mark on the BB can preach about taking the moral high ground after some of his posts wishing cancer on people. Have another drink and a proper think about what you post.

There has always been immigration to the British Isles, and that will remain the case until the day human beings develop roots and live like plants.

Usually it has been on a modest scale - the Huguenots and the Jews, for instance. This has enriched the existing culture without coming close to supplanting it, and has been a good thing for all concerned.

Then there have been the invasions - Romans, Angles/Saxons/Jutes, Vikings, Normans. The results of these are obviously here to see in the culture of today, and generally we would consider them a good thing - at any rate, we have never known anything else. But at the time they were happening they were disruptive and unpleasant - good for the invaders, bad for the invaded.

What we have had in the last 50 years or so is on a scale so massive it can only be called an invasion, with the result this country is not the country it was. If people are uncomfortable and unhappy about this, their feelings are no different from the feelings of their forebears facing other invasions.

Alp, name ONE politician who never fools anybody.

Keyno, mr.elbee

Yes I do live in the UK, and I'm being a realist - I don't want such an outcome but the reality is that tactical voting is more likely than not to lead to an inconclusive outcome - which will not be liked by the markets, or me

[alphorn] 11/12/2019 11:31

max - jacko is a windup merchant - do what I say, not what I do. JRM in disguise.

He does it very well and fools most of you most of the time.

Labour is screwed, Corbyn will retire to his allotments in Palestine.

[k38] 11/12/2019 11:22

A majority win for Boris of 28 seats or more.43% of the vote with 339 seats. Labour 231 seats with 34% of the vote.. it can be a lot less because we don't know how many seats the Brexit Party will take from labour yet.
