Nothing, but I'm not arguing that they would?

Absolutely it is, but I can't imagine many people over here would think that.

Can you find where in that article it says they get free handsets? I guess they'll just have to save up their £7 a day, but I have to say, the more I am hearing about this the cushier their lives seem, I have to say.

A free phone is not the same as a free SIM. If I gave you a free SIM, with no phone, what would you do with it?

Again, if that is your interpretation of the sweet life I can see why you'd be angry about them. Personally, get three poor meals a day, and a personal allowance of £6, with nothing to do, awaiting a decision on whether my life is going to be shit, or shitter, is not what I would consider the sweet life. But that's horses for courses, and your life may make that look like living it up.

Paywalled. Can you copy what it actually says as a free SIM card is not a free phone?

They don't get mobile phones and clothing. Isn't it funny how different people interpret "the sweet life". Your life must be fucking depressing.

I'm sure that claim is in there somewhere, but I've not got time to read all of them. I just don't know how it would work. Misinformation I get, and I think that is a huge issue (see Cueta a few weeks ago).

But this is about Muslims, as BP said earlier. And yeah, I really do think there are some on here.

I'm just not convinced they are funding ever single person coming from Africa. How does that even work? And why wouldn't they just invest in and create wars so that we HAVE to take them instead as they actually qualify as refugees? All seems too far fetched for me.

Perhaps, I think "race" is the incorrect word anyway. I should have just left it.

Unfortunately we see it on this site enough - British people are disgusting.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cqp9el2ml339t There'll be celebrations up and down the UK now... The downvotes say it all:

But where would their illegal immigrants come from? They've shut the border to Belarus, Ukraine is a huge border for them, and I'm not sure whether Africans can make it that way particularly easily. I would guess they get them from Syria and Iran, possibly, but why would they go to Poland rather than Germany?

How many though, I guess that is the question, and yes we need to be better at weeding out those that are economic migrants.

I also think a lot of them do it nowadays because it makes them more interesting. On social media there is nothing worse than a boring, thick fucker, so they post this stuff up to ensure they are engaged with, and then when you ask them slightly complex questions they go into the "I'm not going to get into this with you now..." tactic of fobbing off a conversation without it looking like they can't answer the questions.

I watched something recently on this, and it is far easier for people to blame issues and focus on something that is effectively solvable, than to admit that they don't understand or can't solve an issue. It's why so many uneducated/poorly educated people tend to lap up these conspiracy theories, because otherwise it's completely out of their control and that's a scary world to be in.

Read my posta back today, I've said that. Most get sent back though as they are economic migrants, so it's nothing to do with Europe being an easy ride. It's about it being their only access to first world countries, due to geography.

See for me, if I was a lizard person or whoever is doing this, I would be funding wars in all the countries in Africa that have high Muslim populations, as that would mean they'd be allowed to STAY in Europe. If I were Russia I'd just invade Afghanistan again and then allow masses to leave and claim asylum in European countries.

It's so odd, and also very disjointed, but then I guess it's being argued by people that don't understand the asylum process and results, and also don't really understand the argument they're being fed.

No, I'm saying they're economic migrants. Only Sudan out of the countries mentioned earlier has an ongoing war.

Because many of them speak English, it's really that simple. Spain, Italy, France and Germany all have many more illegal immigrants than the UK every year as well.

It's mental how some people don't know the basics of how the world works, but then I guess it stops them asking the basic due diligence enquiries to the people posting on X and Facebook.

Because they want money, and neighbouring countries to Sudan, Eritrea and Somalia don't have that, hence why they come to Europe via Spain. What has Poland done to reduce the number of migrants BTW? Considering it's not really on the geographic route for Muslim's, I'm unsure what your point is?

Yep, 0.3% up. Food inflation still very low, which is great 👍
