Should we welcome them with open arms?

Most immigrants are young, healthy people. They want to work.

They help prop up our underfunded NHS, not to mention scores of other useful areas of our country's life.

Yes, welcome them.

//Should we welcome them with open arms?//

Of course, just so as we should with Palestinians, Afghanistanians, Iraqians and all Africans as well as others who we’ve bombed, stolen from, raped, pillaged and destroyed by playing a hand in getting rid of rulers and thus creating power vacuums which are then replaced by terrorists, despots,bent banana law governments and other twisted warring factions that negatively affected the countries we’ve invaded, colonised and destroyed after all, it is our duty.

Even the headline in the DM doesn't make sense. Does Larisa not realise Italy is IN Europe?

Then there's the sub headline which is a masterclass in English 'A spike in attempted illegal crossings has led to some 300 people die this week'

Top quality journalism. He said, ironically.

Most immigrants with checkable training, arriving by legitimate channels.
Absolutely not rocking up having just bypassed the systems in place to deal with incomers.
Of course they could all come and live with you Bainbrig, at your expense.

[ummmm]

How do they prop up our NHS? If the were medically trained they could apply, they wouldn't risk their life getting on a boat.

It's from the Express. It's Germany not the UK. Probably an exaggeration anyway. Also it's dated 2016. Times have moved. Wonder what it's like now.

Then why don't they work hard in their own country, so as to drag it up to be a little nearer to a decent 21st century country?

Better still, why don’t WE drag it up as we’re obligated to do or are we a nation of hit and go hide?

Thank god there's no unemployed people wanting jobs in Europe... These migrants are a stroke of luck if you ask me.

[Zacs-Master]

Some of 'em might get a job at the Daily Mail, if they can write English.

Trying to make yourself to seem clever is having the opposite effect.

Where does Larisa say that Italy is not in Europe?

Read what it says, the immigrants are waiting to cross the Mediterranean into Europe after Italy turned boats away.

It could have been any 'EUROPEAN' Mediterranean country turning their boats away, but in this case it is European Italy.

[Zacs-Master]

So where they gonna go and be let in then?

[Minkyme]

Well that would mean that 96% of jobs as dm reporters are risk then zacsmaster as the reporters there either post 4 year old stories, indecipherable hyroglyphics or are a case of mass hysteria inducing dramatic non stories which in most case appears to be from a reporter whose first language is English.

[Minkyme]

Isn’t English I meant.

[douglas9401]

Hello Isla.

douglas9401

Blimey she is not back is she?

[The_Rim_Greaper]

I agree we should welcome them with open arms...the sort that fire lead at rapid speed...

some of you fools that think we should let them in need to go and spend a few days in Peckham..Sarf East London to see what a detrimental effect these filth have had on our country and what the future brings...
