Seems to me that he reaps what he sows. This, a couple of months ago i had ignored him for about a week and he started mentioning me in posts again and "liking" or "lol" reaction to posts against me, something that's carried on since then on pretty much every post, he wasn't getting enough attention bless him, like when he doesn't get replies to threads so starts other ones on a similar subject but with a different worded title. Then his endless ranting at Ducky and Jamie.

Lee Chapman has just been supported by his party for telling asylum seekers to f*** off back to France if they object to the way they are treated here.

If we don’t stand up to people like this more people like Lee Chapman will get elected and we will become a less tolerant country than we already have become.

And what is wrong with that exactly? They are coming here from safe countries and being offered a safe and adequate place to stay with access to medical care and leisure facilities while their asylum claims are assessed. If they really are coming from awful places where they were persecuted/tortured etc you would think they would be grateful for that, there are thousands of British people living on the streets with no roof over their head who aren't so fortunate to be offered that kind of luxury. If they don't like what they're being offered here then they absolutely should bugger off elsewhere.

No one said it is but I expect those sort of comments from Gammons on a football forum, not the Deputy Chairman of the Government! And if the fire brigade told you that accommodation provided for you was a potential fire trap I am sure you would be more than happy to stay there. I don’t know what other reasons they have for not wanting to go there and I suspect that you don’t either but rather than assume they are being ungrateful, I am happy to wait and hear the reasons why. The Tories are doing what the Tories do. They are throwing red meat to those of a far right persuasion and trying to whip up a media frenzy to deflect from the total mess they have made of this. Perhaps, instead of throwing profanities around and trying to create an “enemy” for the media to pile in on, they should put their efforts into finding an effective way to deal with the people traffickers in France, to deal with the massive backlog of asylum applications that they have let pile up and bring in safe and legal routes for people to apply for asylum here so that they don’t have to risk their lives crossing the channel in small boats. We have been fed more governments lies recently. For example, it is not a legal requirement to seek a skull in the first safe country you come to. If that was the case places like Poland would be overrun with Ukrainians. The government insist on calling them illegal immigrants. It is perfectly legal for them to apply for asylum once they arrive here so the only illegal ones are those who do not. Judging by the huge numbers in the processing queue it looks like the majority are not illegal.

From memory some Islamophobes took exception when it was pointed out to them that Christianity could hardly take the moral high ground over Islam when it came to coming atrocities. The burning of heretics (be they Catholic or Protestant) was one example. The atrocities committed by Germany in the 1930s and 1940s another. They wouldn’t have it that Germany wax predominately a Christian country. One of the many counters to this was the Germany army belt buckles which they found then, and apparently still find now, hilarious. I have no idea why, but there you go! The point was not what did Hitler believe or not believe. He and his higher command used religion to their own ends and many members of the Nazi Party were active Christians, which is what the argument was about.

I have never complained about trying to reduce the numbers coming over. I have complained about the lack of proper, legal avenues which is a completely different thing. if we are getting into the “people like you” area then perhaps people like you should not just jump to assumptions and read things properly. It serves their purpose not to do much about stopping the crossings as they are making a big deal about the accommodation issues along with the “invasion” of migrants (as I am sure you know, we deal with far less than other European countries. As I have already said, they need to do more to stop the traffickers (if TV reporters can find them why can’t the authorities?). They need to sort of the ridiculous current back log of claimants and they need to actually provide proper legal avenues for people to apply for asylum without risking their lives crossing the channel. How many times do I need to say it? By the way, I was not complaining about the barge (although I did point out that our fire brigade call it a fire trap). I was complaining about Lee Anderson’s terminology. Again, he is Deputy Chairman of the Tory Party yet he comes across as Lord Duckhunter from a football forum. Classy. You seemed to have missed off the point that the UK needs to be less attractive to people who will to pay £1000s and who throw away their documents and ID....

sadoldgit Posted 11 August, 2023 Share Posted 11 August, 2023 (edited) Given the latest news from the farce that is this government’s attempt to deal with the migrants, how long before Lee Anderson issues this quote - “If you don’t want to get Legionnaire’s Disease, f*** back to France?” In another farce, is Lord Duckhunter actually suggesting that the Fire Brigade’s Union has nothing to do with the Fire Brigade and isn’t qualified to comment on what constitutes a fire trap? 😂 Interesting take on the accommodation from someone who stayed on the barge before the bunk beds were installed. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/bibby-stockholm-barge-conditions-resident-experience-b2390135.html ps Apparently the Home Office arranged to have the water tested but moved people onto the barge before they got the results back. 😜 Edited 11 August, 2023 by sadoldgit Added text 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The teaching unions aren’t ofsted, the NUJ aren’t ofcom & the FBU aren’t the Dorset Fire and Rescue Authority. If they don’t like it they can fuck off back to France.

a1ex2001 Posted 11 August, 2023 Share Posted 11 August, 2023 The government don’t want to ‘stop the boats’ they are the latest in a long list of ‘others’ that they blame for their failings. They used to like blaming the EU but then we left an everything got worse not better so a new ‘other’ was needed to distract the simple minded while they line their pockets. The government could ‘stop the boats’ tomorrow by opening asylum processing facilities in France they choose not to. They could process the thousands of asylum seekers rotting in hotels they choose not to. They could actually deport some failed asylum seekers and again they choose not to. One day people will wake up and realise the people crossing the channel in small boats aren’t the ones doing them over and notice the rich guys running off with the sacks of cash laughing at them for being so gullible.
