1) How many people on here think all ethnic minorities should be deported FROM THE UK... ?
Including LEGAL immigrants and 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation immigrants living in the UK??
2) What will you do with people of mixed race?
3) What about Europeans (Italians, Spanish, Polish etc)?
I genuinely want to understand where those that are against immigration to the UK are coming from.
Answer:
Watch the movie "Children of Men" and then you'll see how messed up the world would be if that happened.
An Internet "troll" is a person who delights in sowing discord on the Internet. He (and it is usually he) tries to start arguments and upset people.
Trolls see Internet communications services as convenient venues for their bizarre game. For some reason, they don't "get" that they are hurting real people. To them, other Internet users are not quite human but are a kind of digital abstraction. As a result, they feel no sorrow whatsoever for the pain they inflict. Indeed, the greater the suffering they cause, the greater their 'achievement' (as they see it). At the moment, the relative anonymity of the net allows trolls to flourish.
Trolls are utterly impervious to criticism (constructive or otherwise). You cannot negotiate with them; you cannot cause them to feel shame or compassion; you cannot reason with them. They cannot be made to feel remorse. For some reason, trolls do not feel they are bound by the rules of courtesy or social responsibility.
Didn`t you just ask this?
Not me, but I'm on the other side of the pond so you may not want to count me. Your questions are very much on point, and the US has much the same problem with people from south of the border.
I am not against the immigration at all!But 99.9% of Britons are!!!
From the states here, but why do you make it an "all" question? I doubt the intellegent are so extreme. I think if anyone goes to a country legally, then they have a right to be there. If they are there illegally they should be deported.
Wow, you're taking it a little too far aren't you?
Deport those who were not born here and who aren't doing the country any favours ie, those who just clogg up our prisons and those who do not pay taxes.
Great Britain is a very welcoming country to other races and cultures. I believe people should be able to travel between countries if they want to start a better life - many people have come to the UK and contributed hugely to our country. However, ILLEGAL immigrants are not welcome - they are breaking the law from the minute they enter the country. Therefore, they are unable to work and revert to a life of crime which affects the law abiding people of the UK. Come to this country but don't do it illegally. All countries in the world have constraints on the number they can let in - even the UK. A country has to ensure that there is adequate services (health etc).
If all immigrants (legal and illegal) left this country then the country would grind to a halt and fall apart.
I think (ignorant) people think that they are losing their national or cultural identity and that the British government bends over backwards to be accommodating to people from other countries, so that those people don't feel the need to try and respect British culture or make an effort to fit in with it, but instead expect to be able to carry on as they please and er, steal all our jobs??? That was the gist of a rant directed at me by a man who had england flags sewn all over his shoes, anyway. When I asked him if he was very patriotic, he didn't know what it meant and after I explained, he said to his friend: "This German (I'm English) ***** called me a patriot just cos I love my country!" spat on my foot and walked off.
I suspect that if the sort of people you are looking for an answer from are of this calibre, then we should do away with Britishness altogether and take whatever scraps of other cultures we can lay our hands on.
I think without meaning any offence that your question is too vast. For instance some people might view the migration of members of the european union differently to those lets say from Asia.
1/ I dont think all ethnic minorities should be deported. The only ethnic minorities that i have a problem with are those which do not conform to or embrace the British way of life. Good examples of this would be those that continue to speak their own language,wear veils, plot to blow up our country
2/ Not even an issue with me
3/ Again Italian and spanish people dont really bother me... but then again we're not flooded with them. Polish people nothing personal and i know im generalising... but appear to think that the UK is nothing short of the promised land ... i do not like freeloaders from poor countries (sorry)
Why is this in immigration? What if I'm a minority but not an immigrant? I understand you're trying to incite an argument, but go about it to where it at least makes some sense.
No I don't think that at all!!...I do think that we are a small island and can only cope with so many people before our quality of life reduces to very little.
We are all human..lets get rid of religeon,political ideology..And the man.
OK, I uderstand you're asking a genuine question here and this is not your opinion.
I do not think ethnic minorities should be deported, whether in groups or as individuals. It does not matter what country they came from; if they entered legally they are welcome to stay, study, work and live. If they entered illegally then they broke the law and must understand that, if caught, they will face deportation.
As i have said, it doesn't matter whether people are from Spain, Poland, Russia, Cambodia, Uganda, etc. Nor does it matter if they are of mixed race.
Britain will be a much, much poorer and sadder place without these minorities.
i think you have it wrong the white British nationals are the minority now, so in answer to your question no they would just end up back here
Ethnic minorities are fine, whats your problem ? as far as being here legally again no problem and as for 2/3/4/ generations why would we want to kick you out ? If though you are talking about the large amount of illegal immigrants and the extremist's that are here, do we not have the right to wish to see them removed from our lands ? Do you honestly think these people come here to escape tyranny in their homelands, or maybe a free ride at the tax payers expense? if your working and paying tax, do you think its fair the amount of people who are living here and taking something that they haven't contributed into. lets face it, there no other country in the world that immigrant's can just walk into and be given so much, In this day and age things need to change, we can no longer afford to keep these type of people. hope that give you some insight as to how a lot of British people are feeling.
It will not happen. But I will not wish it to happen either. It would result in inbreeding and disease and ugliness and people set in their ways resulting in poverty and mental illness , economic stagnation and bankruptcy. Basically goods produced will not be of export or competitive quality. It happened in the 40s to 70s when the little Englander mentality was at its peak - people were fed on "We won the war " and "we are the best" and British products are also "the best".
During that time our motor vehicle industry got wiped out by the Japanese and the rest of the world were buying anything except our manufactured goods. We are just recovering but our manufacturing industries may never recover. It is by comparing and competitiveness that the human race renews and survives. Put just one type in isolation and they will die out fast.
This type of talk may play to racist types but if they only knew the economic detail as I'm trying to lay out they may not wish for it as much.
American industry is also suffering but not as much because they manufacture mostly for an American market brought up on the "America is best" mantra. So their goods do not do well abroad. General motors and Chrysler are suffering.
For the people that say that the government talks tough but does nothing, if you re read my input again you will find out why it is and will remain all talk and no action.
My gripe is the open door policy the UK now operates. The government talk tough on immigration but the record proves that it exactly that - talk. Britain infrastructure struggles at the best of times so where exactly are all the new people going to live? I know lets turn all of England's green pleasant pasture into housing estates! We already have a water shortage after a couple of days sunshine. The people who use immigrants for labour pay the bottom end wages so that they can get fatter of them - thats the real reason why they prefer an immigrant workforce, not that there harder workers. Increasingly parts of these islands are becoming more and more alien to the hetrogenious population and people are becoming increasingly scared.
The bottom line to your question is that Britain should stop all immigration no matter where you are from. All persons found here illegally should be deported straight away.
I don't think people have a problem with 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation immigrants if they are legal and pay there taxes.
Loo, i agree with you, if the country sent all the immigrants (illegal/ legal) back the country would be stuck.
On the legal side, we employ many doctors, nurses, teachers, dentists etc, because this country do not have enough to go round.
On the illegal side, there are many people that come here for a good reason, ( granted that there are loads that lie as to why they came) but if they are in fear of their lifes, then why can't they come here.
Yes i know the country is getting full, but each persons case is different, why should they not beable to have a better life here?
Why would you deport legal immigrants? How can you deport CITIZENS who are 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation? That would be stupid ad wrong. Deport those that broke the laws to get there only.
I only have a problem with ILLEGAL immigrants. The legal ones are fine!
Do you wish to start with all the British people who live overseas first?
we need more immigrants not less.
already there are shortages of teachers, doctors, nurses...
so we should let more come from Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe...
It's easy - you deport illegal immigrants and those that have been allowed to stay and who have then gone on to commit serious crime or bring their own country of orgins war with them which has involved them in serious crime in the UK.
That applies to all guests - regardless of which country they hail from in my mind. It is not about race - it is about adopting another country as your home - if you are serious about it you would keep your nose clean and try and have a decent life.
2/3rd generations - that makes me think of the London bombers -again - they clearly do not like the west or out culture so regardless of them being born here - they are technically traitors and therefore would clearly feel far more at home in a nice Islamic state like Saudi Arabia - so 2/3rd generations who have committed crimes of hate against the West and serious terror should be deported also.
I want to live amongst people who have respect for one another - I don't want to live with people who hate me and my country because we are different to their own country which they chose to leave.
Judging by your avatar, can I presume that we'll be starting with you being kicked out og GB back to your native country!
If the immigrants are law abiding, have permanent work, speak and understand very good English and pay their way in all things, I do NOT have a problem with them and they can stay. Just kick out the spongers and those that can't be bothered to learn and speak English.
I don't because this country would be in BIG trouble without them. There'll always be a problem with immigration, no matter which country you talk to. What upsets people the most are those that don't pay into the system yet receive all the benefits. This causes a lot of unrest and anger. I get annoyed about it myself.
sshh! might get into trouble answering that one
