There´s plenty of room for more immigrants in the UK, isn´t there?
population: 127,433,494
United Kingdom: 244,820 km²
population: 58,789,1945
Japan has over double the population of the UK, but only about 1/3 more land, which proves there is plenty of room for more people - at least 30 milliom more.
The people who say "it´s not about race, it´s about space" are clearly racists. You people stole and pillaged from others and now many of those people you stole from want a share of the spoils and you want to pull up the drawbridge!
Answer:
Take a look around you and see the homeless on our streets then tell me we have enough room. As for what our forefather did stop blaming us.. It was years ago... Give it up..
*yawn*
Yes I believe the Yorkshire moors are fairly uninhabited or maybe the Outer Hebrides could fit in a few.
We are overpopulated and there are too many people here, we have no more room and we do not want more high rise flats taking over our countryside, who will fill the spaces they leave behind in their countries?
Well i'll be leaving end of this year. You can buy my house in Reading for £165,000.
United States: 9,158,960 km²
Population: 302,130,897
We have plenty of room, too, especially if our government freed up all the land it has absolutely NO right to own. I agree with you wholeheartedly.
japans houses etc are built diffrent to over here in the uk , there isnt any room for alot of the people that were born over here let alone space for people from other countries legal or not
Look, cool it!! We have lots of Pols, Romanians, Indians, Pakistanis, Chinese and all kinds in our small town, there is only about 5,000 people live in a rather large area of Scotland where I live. Now, I, personally, am perfectly happy for anybody to come here. As long as they get on with it and don't break the law that applies to use all, they can come here and bring up there children, enjoying this beautiful area the same as the rest of us.
'You people' ? Maybe you just don't like us. Never been a thief, or stolen anything mate. Raise that drawbridge, quick.
No theres not.
actually the pillaging was done by the vikings not the brits, after we were invaded by the vikings we were invaded by a lot of other people including the romans.. now kindly rephrase your question thankyou
UK will only let people in when they need them. I.E. people who can do manual work.
You do realise that some lands are be classified as uninhabitable, reserves, parks, moorlands and therefore cannot have people living there. There is land which is unable to support over a certain amount of people as well due to its density.
I think you should look up the meaning of racist.
The UK lets in far more than it's fair share of illegals. Yeah we stole and pillaged.. it was a long time ago.. get over it.
Australia: 7,741,220 km²
Population: 21 million
If you think Australia can handle 30 times the amount of people the UK can you're dreaming. We can't. Too much desert. If, however, you think you can survive in the Australian desert be my guest. I will welcome you with a BBQ and then I will leave you in the desert to rot.
we didn´t steal from Pakistan, in fact we gave them a whole country.
How many immigrants live in Japan ?
I would say we have many , many more.
So in answer to your question it's time to close all our borders. WE did not steal and pillage from anybody ! We have paid £millions to poor countries. Do you have any figures for the money the UK have just given to help , with no chance to ever receive it back , i'll bet you don't.
Oh another thing , we have needy people here and the money we would save on benefits to immigrants should be spent on them. I do not know were you come from and quite frankly i don't care i just wish you would open your EYES.
No ! If we keep on going concreting this Island over for more
housing, our problems will get worse. Look at the latest deluge of rain water! We need enough green space for drainage. More people - more housing will be needed. Can,t let that happen or we will all be suffering and quality of life on this Island will suffer. Look ahead and see the reality !
>>You people stole and pillaged...<<
Clearly, a racist yourself, if I am to use your own metrics.
Oh, I know, I know: You are certainly *not* a racist, but your words indicate otherwise.
See how the race card works?
The difference between Japan and the UK is that the population figure for Japan is mainly made up of Japanese and living conditions and health care is stretched to the limit and beyond. If you want to maintain a high standard of both you have to have a manageable population level (is it not Japan and China that are bringing in strict regulations on population expansion?) and not be using every inch of space available. Your comments show the underlying problem, UK is becoming greatly multicultural and unfortunately they are not all living in harmony and its not just the British that are racist. You show that many going to live in the UK arrive with built in issues that only create more problems. The UK have left it too late to pull up the drawbridge they should have adopted the strict restrictions of other countries a long time ago. They have always had an open door attitude which is gradually strangling the country as it fills with people looking for a better/easier life with readily available assistance from the UK Govt for housing, health, education and benefits, what other country offers that?
Chabwera, I now realise you are not a black immigrant student at all, you're a white wind up merchant. Give it a rest mate, I know who you are and I will tell everyone if you don't stop it.
The majority of the UK population think that immigration should be seriously curbed. We have a right to say how many people we want coming into OUR country.
Even established ethnic minorities are voicing concerns about the level of immigration, our schools, hospitals and other social infrastructure can't take the strain.
Japans population is mainly Japanese, not made up of large groups of immigrants. Why don't a lot of these potential immigrants stay and help sort out their own countries,
Sorry I disagree with you, there simply is no more room at the inn. Try the guest house next door for a change.
Not really because there isn't any housing is there. Its no good inviting people to stay and then expecting them to live on the streets. If building more houses was a solution i'm sure that natives of our own country would have somewhere to live. And as most of the UK seems to be flood plain there is getting less and less to build on.
No, there's not. The infrastructure is going to collapse if many more people are allowed to immigrate here. Where do you suggest we put them - St Kilda or something? There are loads of indigenous homeless, people here can't get what they're entitled to because the country is too busy dealing with immigrants.
Read this story and tell me what YOU think. A friends daughter worked in large bakery in my area. She worked beside a guy from Czechoslovakia and they got chatting one day. He showed her TWO bank books, one with a balance of £20,000, the other with £15,000. Since he was an immigrant and had only been here for about 18 months, she asked how he'd managed to save that amount (he was on less wages than her - she was a supervisor). Told here that he was claiming Family Tax benefits. Fine. She hadn't realised he had a family. Oh, yes, but they were back home in Czechoslovakia! The plan was to work for another six months get another £5000 grand and bugger off back home with his wee nest egg, courtesy of the British mugs. Multiply THAT by a few thousand! My sister was one of those caught up in the Tax benefits claw back because THEY had made mistakes. She had given them all the relevant information both by form, letter and phone and they STILL got it wrong. It caused her loads of financial problems and almost caused a nervous breakdown.
19.20 Please don't get me wrong - If people are working then they are entitled to Family Tax benefits - BUT ONLY IF THEIR FAMILIES ARE IN THIS COUNTRY!!!
While I'm at it - is there any country - apart from Britain - who doles out the taxpayers money like these anuses do here? I don't really think so - I'm just curious, cos if there were, all these people wouldn't be so desperate to get to Britain.
don't forget the Japanese are much smaller than us, so they don't need as much room as us big Brits. As for your remarks about how we stole from them, well didn't we give them peace within their countries instead of the tribal wars they were always fighting, plus we gave them homes.work and food in their stomach's, now they have their Independence back and have reverted back to their old ways and are killing each other again. So why should we take in all these animals who what to bring the UK down to their standards ?
w h a t e v e r . . .
and I don't remember stealing anything personally.
And we don't have a drawbridge. Not since some Nigerian bloke nicked it.
Japan is a completely different place to the United Kingdom and quite frankly I'd like to keep it this way. We are an island, we have beautiful countryside that hasn't yet needed to be built on. If 'you people' had your way we'd be ruined. How dare you tell us what we've got room for. We're happy as we are, we need a tougher government that are prepared to have guns on our borders. Save our little island before it's too late!
why should we keep letting people in, I'm not racist but i believe that the people that are all ready here should have a chance for houses and jobs before the immigrants. i like that we still have countrysides and i want to see the green grass or the woodland areas when i get older, why should we build on every bit of land we have. I'm sure that it will ruin the environment.
if we don't control immigration then the words of ENOCH POWELL WILL COME TRUE.. so are we racist to try an stop this or are we just trying to stop what could be THE FAMOUS RIVER`S OF BLOOD SPEECH "" COME TRUE "" WHO DO WE BLAME THEN RACIST`S ARE THE IDIOTS WHO STUCK THERE HEAD`S IN THE SAND get real will you people we will have a serious problem if we do not control immigration... "" NO I`AM NOT A RACIST`S "" I`AM JUST SOMEONE WHO IS CONCERNED ABOUT HIS COUNTRY... reading between your lines i would say that it is you who is the racist and one very bitter person or is it about that famous stepping stone into politics "" racism ""
Yes - no problem. Come one -come all. If you are a would be terrorist - more than welcome. I'd make it quick though before we turn in to an Islamic State.
as an american, my dream has been to move to the uk LEGALLY. i plan on contributing somehting good to that great nation, thats why i want to move there after college!! i would never take government benefits...i would be there to GIVE, not receive. will there be room for me?
We statistically have enough space for a lot more in America, too - but there's a factor easily lost in this "open borders" kind of thinking - land aesthetics. Do you really want to allow in so many people that, like in America, the majority of the open lots and natural landscapes are converted into ugly urban jungles, just for the sake of economy?
Also, does it matter whether Britain has a history of colonization? Just because they messed with their countries, means that they have a moral obligation to sit back and watch while their country gets infiltrated? That's some pretty stupid logic there.
