US Illegal Migration

[Alex]

The US has it much worse than we do.   It's a big country yes, but New York has had enough with the citizens of Staten Island taking to the streets to block migrant buses.   The police have arrested some residents, but of course the buses get through.   Looking at the video clips and reading about the people arriving at the Mexican border I'd just ask how are the African illegals getting to the border ? it's certainly too far for a dinghy     

Do they fly into Mexico then just walk across the border, mixing in with those from Guatemala, Honduras and such places   ?

I think for some at least Europeans took their ancestors over free two or three hundred years back.

Was Trump right about a wall?

I saw something on the tv a few weeks back.. NewYork was overrun with illegal immigrants sleeping on the street.. Nowhere to go.. They were not housed in hotels...

[klondike]

They clearly forgot the magic words "I wish to seek asylum". Or the yanks sensibly cocked a deaf 'un. It's only this island of fools that makes them more than welcome.

America should now build Trump's all (a large fence, actually).

We, at least are an island, yet we still welcome all and sundry to our country.

WW2 when Churchill said 'We shall fight them on the beaches'.. The British were so proud to quote this.. We would defend our country and never surrender...
 Can you imagine if Sunak.. Johnson and the rest were running this country back then.. ?   No backbones .. Scared to do anything 'Lest they offend'..

Interesting, isn't it.  We'd be under the Third Reich now.
There would be no people escaping from France in rubber dinghies, though, and absolutely no-one invading from the third-world!

On balance, looking at things today, I've long thought it wouldn't have been a bad thing.

Both Churchill & Bomber Harris are now being vilified for what were rousing speeches at the time.

I think yes, but the democrats would pull it down every four years or so!

I'm glad to be 1700 miles from the Southern border, so even at the expansive speed of the invasion at my age I think I'm safe. Hopefully a change of both President and Party next year would staunch this very worrying position.

Long term I fear the world is doomed any way.

Muslims have been told in their religious writings to take over the world.

Unlike some other religions, islam is expanding and showing no signs of modernising its rules, whereas most other religions are.
As it is not considered illegal in most modern western countries, they are definitely on a winner.
