    My counterpoint to the hotel stuff: Who the fuck stays in Rotherham or any of these towns? They don't have a booming tourist trade. How many people travel to Rotherham on business and actually stay a night?

    If a hotel has a good handle on what their average occupancy is, they'll take asylum seekers to fill the rest of it. It's good business and you'll still have rooms to spare.

    Who the fuck is going to stay in a hotel that has asylum seekers in it?

    I stayed in the Worksop Premier Inn three weeks ago and let me tell you, business is booming. Had to book early to get an evening meal in the Beefeater downstairs. Not many halal options there so the asylum seekers will have to seek elsewhere.

    Loads of people stay in hotels on business, everywhere.

    If you live in the midlands or the South and need to be at a meeting in Rotherham for 9am then for most people that'll mean a hotel the night before.

    Those hotels also host functions, one of the major complaints when this started was a lot of short notice wedding venue cancellations.

    Isn't the obvious problem with the hotels that your taxes are paying for thousands of people to stay in them? Who cares about whether they would be able to be fully booked otherwise. The company I just joined is paying for me to stay in a hotel for about a month, and with how much it costs them, I could rent an 8 bedroom McMansion.

    As for 'care workers' if you really need them that bad, you could do what the US used to do with farmers: Bring them in on a temporary permit, have them work for a few months/years and earn their money and then send them back. Allowing six people to move in permanently (with full benefits) so that one of them can work a low-wage job is just not economically prudent.

    The only future that’s being built is for the people being brought in to replace us. Why would you subject a child to that?

    Yeah but to do that you'd have to have a government which had any aims for the country whatsoever except to keep wages low.

    Admittedly we've now changed government but the new lot will probably keep the same policy from a different angle.

    Spoken like the wealthy, who are the only ones given a platform to speak on things like this. I’ve seen small villages flooded with these cunts, trebling the population overnight with no facility for it. We’re being wiped out in the name of easy money for a small few people.

    It's fascinating to me that you can see the untra-weatlthy are to blame for the fall in living standards, even if it is through the bullshit lens of tHe gReAt rEpLaCeMeNt, but your solution is to burn the migrants as if that would address the issue.

    I'd seriously hate to live in those places where twitter videos show a gaggle of Muslim folk dominating the streets. Similarly, I'd hate to be part of the far right protest, which seem to be mostly working class yobs.

    In short, lock them all up and deport them.

    What are you on about? Two things not even remotely related, that's some leap of a comparison to make you silly twat.

    Nobody said they should be burned either. I wouldn't have them anywhere near getting in in the first place.

    Absolute lies.

    Like many things, people will put up with matters which they disagree with until it directly affects their day to day.

    This is not me supporting the right wing mobs, but I also think people cast views on the matter who will be far remote from the issues at hand.

    I didn't say they were related, it was just a funny contrast.

    That's one of the main problems with all this. If you're not completely on board with letting them run amok then you're immediately FAR RIGHT. The news reporting of the whole wider issue is an absolute discgrace and all the proof anyone needs that the whole purpose of all this is creaming off it.

    Why would I care if my neighbourhood is mostly Muslim?

    Do I care if it's mostly Christian/Atheist/Hindu/Buddhist etc etc? No.

    When I lived in Southend we had a Mosque at the top of our road. Every year, on Eid the utter bastards would turn up in a mob and go door to door with sweets, colouring books and toys for the local kids. They then had the absolute cheek to host a foodbank every Friday.

    Yeah I couldn’t give a shit who lives in my area as long as they aren’t cunts. Can be brown, black, yellow, white, gammon, pink it doesn’t matter just don’t be a cunt and we will get on fine.

    I’d be more concerned about living in a town full of skagheads and drunks than I would anything else.

    Exactly, as long as you're not a twat we're good.

    Most of the cunts I've met in life are white.

    They had to flee Famagusta because of the Turkish invasion, yes.

    It happened in 1974, so 50 years ago.

    I don't see why that would have an impact on me and my views.

    Should I hate ALL Turkish people and ALL Muslims because of it?

    No, but it ought to give you some appreciation as to why multiculturalism leads to communalism and violence in pretty much every place and time ever. Why didn't 'as long as you're not a twat we're good' work in Cyprus? They must have just all been twats for some reason.

    The reason Muslims vs others is a problem is that Muslims don't agree with you about the 'as long as you're not a cunt' approach to life, they think that only the Muslim world can/should exist and that everything that exists outside of it is an aberration. Amazingly they even think this when mosques are baking cakes for the local community and holding garden parties for the coronation.

    Christians can be nuts but they don't have tawhid and that is the key difference.

    Christians think everyone who isn't them is going to burn in hell for eternity. I'm not sure that's any better.

    It already has. Look at the young Saudi royals trying to be all cool with the westerners. As with everything, the rich become more like the rich everywhere else. Issue is when you have to deal with the plebs.

    Nationalism is the opposite of what Muslims think. Nationalism is about promoting the sovereignty of your ethnic group over its specific homeland, actual or desired. Hence you have Scottish nationalism, Jewish nationalism, Hindu nationalism, and so on as well as the nationalisms of actual nation states.

    Islam holds only the oneness of God. Many Muslims view the nation state setup of having Saudi Arabia and Egypt and Jordan and Syria and so on as nation states as an ahistorical imposition caused by Western imperialism where in fact there should be ummah under a caliph or similar. This is also why (for example) no matter what some of them may say, they absolutely reject Israel's right to exist and always will do, which is one of the chief causes of the issues there.

    It's also why 'British Muslims' will absolutely always be Muslims first and British only when it is convenient for them as a secondary measure. Not true of Christians or any other religion.

    Yeah but you can draw God or Jesus for laughs and no-one cares. Do that with Mohammed and you're risking a petrol bomb through your window whilst you sleep.

    I didn't realise Elon was giving it large to Starmer by the way, go and finish your hyperloop you pasty bellwhiff.
