"Net contributors", I wonder if this includes moving and housing arriving immigrants, paying their expenses, paying France to police their borders very poorly, RNLI costs, medical costs due to their health, physically and mentally. Millions everyday so we're told.Screwdriver wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2024 4:07 pmThis is true.MyLittleStudPony wrote: ↑Sun Sep 08, 2024 3:44 pm Immigrants are net contributors.

Problem is, the type of society they are "contributing" to is not the same as the one they came here to inhabit.
In an ideal world of course we would exterminate the useless elderly. According to ONS statistics, the indigenous population of the UK will be outbred by immigrants within the next ten years. Maybe we should just finish off all the elderly now and formally hand the country over to the caliphate.
Why drag it out?

Yes, that's what "net" means.
What proportion of immigrants do you think arrived here on a small boat?

Re: In todays news...
So what criterion are we using to decide if immigrants are productive?
Lots of them in the care industry round here. Y'know looking after yer nan and so on.
The NHS would fall apart without them and its pretty close anyway. How would you all cope without that?
Are we holding ourselves to the same standards and maybe we need to post a few details about our jobs so other people can decide how productive we are.
So... what do you lot do for a living anyway?
demographic: Carpenter. Build schools, offices, museums, bridges and even a fucking drawbridge Mofos.
Pretty sure a casualty doctor trumps my job, what about yours?

Re: In todays news...
I'm not sure "net" does mean that. I'd imagine most right thinking sorts agree we need support in many industries from overseas workers, same folk must agree we don't need all these small boat arrivals.
If a need for workers, due to growth, puts our housing and infrastructures in shit street, a nation will decline. House building has been maxed out for a few year's now, to no affect.

Re: In todays news...
You are the only one here throwing the word "racist" around.
I do often return to those comments I have made which were dismissed as "conspiracy theory" or ridiculed when they are subsequently proved to have been correct. I appreciate that those who either argued against my observations or ignored them as "conspiracy" are embarrassed when they turn out to have been true. The point I make is not that I am "reminding you that I was right" but that people really ought to consider how and why they were so wrong.
Well I reported this post to @weeksy because you are obviously manipulating my posts to get a rise out of me. This has no bearing on the topic nor is taking individual words out of context a "quote". I see your insult has received a "like" from the other mindless troll. That says it all.
I remind you while you are attempting to "score" some pathetic point in your own tiny mind, that this is a discussion regarding the despicable events at Southgate where several innocent children were hacked to death. It is difficult to discuss AT ALL with the extraordinary levels of censorship and the ignorant knee jerk reaction from the extreme right wing.
You picked the words "black and white" out of my reply to someone asking what had happened and then accuse me of being racist. I find that sort of cheap shot disgusting and beneath contempt so I am of course going to put you and your incessant ignorant jibes on ignore.
However before I do, it might be that you are not merely trolling for a response or being deliberately provocative, I think you might literally be too stupid to understand the logical progression of a discussion. Its as if there isn't enough room in your brain to hold onto a train of thought so you literally pick a couple of words out of a reply and argue your version of meaning from there. Whether that is a deliberate attempt at trolling or an indication you are a bit too dim to understand is irrelevant. It is disgusting behaviour, end of story.
I am in enough trouble with Weeksy as it is.

Just because someone reports an 'issue' doesn't mean me or the Mods have to agree and sanction it, that's not how it works.
Put yourself in the scenario of 2 kids in a car "he said this...." "no he said that...." "no it was him who did this"
That's what i see the above reported post as, 2 kids bickering like children in the back of the car.

"every single mad and unscientific conjecture, none of which have been proven to be true" does sound somewhat excessive. Look forwards to you showing me some of this alleged madness. Or at least one...
Oh? You "can't be bothered"? No one could have seen that coming....
I love how you are now suggesting you knew Biden was showing clear signs of dementia. When did you change your mind about that I wonder? Presumably after the mainstream media told you it was ok. Letting someone else do the thinking for you is probably a good idea in your case.
**I'm sure there must be, I just can't think of any major errors I might have made.

They'll all be far right agitators as far as Starmer is concerned and he'll ignore them. Or get Ricky Jones to cut their throats.

Dutch Mega cities which were going to replace native workers with Chinese workers.
Ukrainian war casualties higher than the actual army personal available at the time.
That's jsut off the top of me head. Fortunately I (and I'd hazard a guess that most) can't be arsed trawling through threads to prove a point that you will never accept.
Oh wait, China invading Taiwan.

Anyhow, yeah "CrowdStrike" was a knee jerk reaction on my part which I recall being happy to be put right on in the live thread. I still think that has legs since it did look for all the world like a test run for a fire sale! Tinfoil hat required...
Dutch Mega cities was merely a report iirc on what the WEF are planning (were planning??) complete with links. Guess you'd have to ask the dutch farmers how they feel about being kicked off their own land. Not revisited but I think that is still going on. Hardly "nonsense".
Ukrainian war casualties? Well I have no idea, personally I am not counting so I assume I must have linked to some video or other possibly to discuss some other point and I'm guessing there was some further information in that link which you refer to. I am aware of some genersl or other who is constantly being trotted out by the non-mainstream media. I take what he says with a pinch of salt.
China invading Taiwan? Watch this space. Aren't they amassing the largest peacetime military exercise around Taiwan right now? I mean as we speak? So is the idea that China might invade Taiwan really "nonsense"? Or do you merely object to the fact that it hasn't happened - yet?

Re: In todays news...
Interesting reminder regards some of the "top" news stories from last year.
I am surprised China hasn't waded in to Taiwan. They do also have some unfinished claims against Russian territory though the word on the street is, they'll be doing back door deals rather than all out invasion. Hence opening up the river access etc.
One little snippet I recently learned due to my own ignorance, Finland has only relatively recently become a sovereign state and not a province of Russia. They have just recently slammed their Russian border shut due to the weaponisation of mass immigration. Russia have been deliberately herding migrants over the Finnish border! That is certainly worth thinking about....
I don't think the "criticism" of some casualty figures I am accused of supply is anything I need to feel embarrassed about. I was going on about the possibility of Russia invading Crimea for a year or so despite massive backlash from virtually everyone on this forum. I thought it was hilarious that I made some offhand comment about being bored waiting, just as the actual invasion started! My finest hour and you're not taking that away from me and I do not forget the jibes from those who thought it was all tinfoilhattery until of course, the worst happened - yeah, lookin' at you DefTrap...
So no, we are "not there" yet as the world turns slowly yet inexorably towards corporate globalism.

That's not fodder for this corner of the forum though is it. This is the news section and I find myself once again, replying in response to some quite aggressive criticism.

If you're taking that as criticism then that says more about you than it does me. It's actually well meaning advice to try and show you what you've become.
