Better they learn English, bb, than we learn Urdu.

Sounds a good idea- provided their husbands let them attend the lessons

[mikey4444]

I think this is a good idea.

But I am listening to dave being interviewed on the Today Program at the moment, and he has managed to wriggle out of question that he was asked....ie if this is such a good idea now, why did his Government stop funding this very item a couple of years ago ? He blathered on about cuts but
declined to admit that it was a mistake.

//dave having his cake and eating it, as usual.// - How?

It's a good idea. But I bet they dont throw anyone out when they dont learn, Dave is too spineless and the HRA lawyers and EU will be there to defend the immigrants - with OUR money.

[Bigbad]

An even better idea would be to spend it on the British.
Mr. Cameron is getting more gutless by the day!

[mikey4444]

YMB....by withdrawing money from a project...realising that money is needed after all....then providing funding again, and pretending that its a new initiative.

Bit like cutting back provision for controlling flooding , realising that 1,000's have been made homeless, and then appearing on TV, in a bright neon jacket and saying that everything that is needed will be done.

Duplicity, pure and simple. Smoke and mirrors.

[Bigbad]

But the money shouldn't be needed in the first place, Mikey.
This is not a Muslim country!

[mikey4444]

The money will be spent, according to dave, on projects to help women who don't speak English, irrespective of their religion.

[EDDIE51]

That is one expense that I agree with. That would help with the problem of Muslim attitude towards women.

[Bigbad]

So, that'll be all the other spongers and parasites that have come here because of free movement, then.

[mikey4444]

Bigbag...you are allowing your xenophobia to rule your keyboard this morning.

Eddie is right !

[EDDIE51]

Bigbad Muslims are here if you like it or not, they are not going to go away.
We need to address the problems that have arisen and this will help. The main problem is the segregation of women this is to help with that.

[Baldric]

Link seems to concentrate on the Muslim population

///Writing in the Times, Mr Cameron said the lack of integration within British society of some Muslim communities had helped to foster extremism and allow "appalling practices" such as female genital mutilation and forced marriage.///

[mikey4444]

Eddie...for people like Bigbad, this is just another opportunity to blame Muslims for everything.

If you are looking for "spongers and parasites", they existed here in Britain long before we had Muslims, in the form of our own home-grown white citizens, most of whom have never worked.

[Bigbad]

I'm well aware they are here to stay, EDDIE51.
But it doesn't mean that I have to approve of all the money that gets spent on them.
Are there no hospitals that need new equipment?
No schools or doctors surgeries that need another member of staff to lighten the load?
There are much better ways of spending £20 million.

[mikey4444]

Baldric...then having a good grasp of English can only help those women to break free of the control that their menfolk seem to have over their everyday lives.

[dannyk13]

Bigbad, could you define British money,bearing in mind that the majority of Muslims work and pay taxes.

[Bigbad]

People like Bigbad?
You mean people who care more for British homeless/pensioners who can’t afford to heat their homes/people who are waiting too long for NHS treatment?
And yes, Mikey, we do have plenty of home grown spongers and parasites.
I posted this on a thread last November:

“These scrounging Brits who claim that they are better off on benefits should be MADE to do these jobs, and learn to live within their means like the rest of us have to. It just means they’ll have to save up that little bit longer for the next tattoo or piercing, or get their nails done less often!
That way the tax payer doesn’t have to support them, which CAN only be good for our economy”.

I’m off out now, but will check back later.

[Baldric]

Before they obtain a good grasp of English they have to escape the control their menfolk have over them, how's that going to happen?

[Bigbad]

dannyk. Those that have been pouring into the country over recent years are more likely to have been given so many handouts, it would take one hell of a long time for them to pay back in tax what has already been given to them.
And if people have been here a long time and not yet learnt to speak English, then they can’t be too keen on the idea in the first place.
I am really off out now!
