General Discussion / Illegal Migrants
Last post by muddy - Yesterday at 07:13:03 AM
Just about everyone wants to stop benefits for "asylum seekers "
It's a subject that makes everyone angry as boatload after boatload of young men arrive in our country for the British taxpayer to support .
Rachel Reeves may be useless but how can any country budget with this ever increasing drain on its finances ?
But if the U.K. stopped benefits for " asylum seekers " aka illegal immigrants what would they do ?
Would this not become the nightmare scenario of gangs of young men robbing shops and homes in order to survive ?

Good job it wasn't her draws
All her cheeks would be red raw
But she wasn't a fool 
Her bloomers were wool
Like the mittens she wore on her paws

This weather is too cold for May
Global warming must have gone away

It always surprises  me that there are police to police things like this .
Have a burglary or in the case of shop lifting they are a rare as hens teeth.

It's odd that most men seem to favour tight belts. Even those with a huge gut hanging over it. I keep mine tight myself but I do like fabric to have a bit of give. If for no other reason that it  makes a disastrous give less likely.

Just silent prayer is enough to get your collar felt. Not that I ever would.

I sometimes wear jeans, but I hate things tight round my waist.  I like linen trousers and cut off in the summer. Elastic waist of course!
