http://www.964eagle.co.uk/news/uk-news/1958918/uk-will-take-3000-syrian-refugee-children/

and as usual we fall for it

"the Government claims is the "largest resettlement programme in the world" for children from the Middle East and north Africa."

...oh great...so its not just syrian refugees...anything to make sure this countrys identity is trashed one way or another, obviously we havent got enough north africans piling in here

And how long before these children miraculously remember they have parents who according to human rights laws means these parents will be given the right to stay in UK ? or parents who suddenly remember they have kids and say that theyre here and should be with them ?

Not even able to earn their own keep, it's just another 3000 on benefits, NHS treatment and all other handouts from day one.
Are we collectively Bonkers to put up with it?

[Sammy48]

More school places to be found and extra teachers to cope with language problems. More pressure on our failing health service.

[ToraToraTora]

yep standard con, 3k Saucepans, yuman rites, 15000 relatives wallop!

[Jackdaw33]

All grist to the mill. Yet another reason for voting LEAVE.

[Baldric]

JD, we have got to get out, it's the one and only chance we will get.

[naomi24]

Yes, it is the one and only chance we will get.

Would leaving the EU debar us from bringing children from the Middle East as in the link?


Honest question as I don't know.

[douglas9401]

Even if there is a vote to leave the EU do you really imagine for a moment that preening, grandstanding politicians will reverse decisions like this?
How would they dare show face at Davos for the big divvy up of the spoils from their bent mates?
Bloody sleeper cell right enough.

"All grist to the mill. Yet another reason for voting LEAVE. "

Nobody would like to highlight reasons to leave the EU more than me. However, leaving the EU will not cure this utter lunacy. These children are not being imported from other EU countries. They will be taken direct from their countries of origin. No government likely to be elected in the UK in the forseeable future is likely to stop "taking pity" on th ehundreds of thousands of people looking to escape the cess pits they live in across th eMiddle East and Asia. It makes them look good on the world stage and they enjoy lavishing other people's money on foreigners.

Only this week it was announced that tens of thousands of parents have learned that their children will not be allocated a place at their first choice of primary school. Some have been told that places are unavailable in any of their choices meaning journeys of many miles will be necessary. Yet in the same week we heaqr of this nonsense.

[ToraToraTora]

"Would leaving the EU debar us from bringing children from the Middle East as in the link? " - no we'd be in control of what we do ourselves.

[ToraToraTora]

that's you told baz!

[Mamyalynne]

Thank you for the answers.

[Jackdaw33]

A bit OTT, don't you think, AP?

[Answerprancer]

Not really, 90% of his posts are inflammatory ***-stirring hate-filled bile about foreigners. It needed to be said.

[ToraToraTora]

It's a reasonable question AP, if you'd just look up from your organic Tibetan Sunflower porridge for a second and actually look at the issue rather than shooting the messenger in traditional anti British style.

[jourdain2]

Will we be able to raise these children as either atheists or a sort-of-vaguely-Christians-who-don't-go-to-church, which would fit in with the general mores of the UK? Or are we expected to nurture more people idealogically opposed to the majority? I think I'd better run for cover - I've been in bed all day and am a bit light-headed ('fluey thing, on 3rd day now), but there is a serious point somewhere in all that.

[Answerprancer]

I'm well aware of the issue, I'm also aware of what their 'home' now looks like and the fact that many of these kids are going to be orphans. This country is rich by miles compared to these war-torn places, we can handle it.

[Togo]

How many is Russian taking?

[douglas9401]

Of course we can handle it. What we can't handle is twenty years down the line when wee Sanjeev takes great exception to having been wrest from the bosom of the mother country and takes umbrage, either suing whitey for sullying his roots or rampaging like mamma used to do.
Miracle of miracles, the orphans are all reunited with their long lost families and Allahu akhbar continues apace.
