Unauthorised Immigrants

[hessian]

It's all very well with=holding benefits but with Food collections being made in supermarkets and elsewhere who checks whether it is only British citizens being supplied?

why would I want to see someone's birth certificate before I'd share my chips with them?

[Patsy33]

Why would thst matter?

[davebro]

Are you suggesting we should starve them out? Seems a bit harsh. If they are here can't get food some might resort to stealing. Even "refugees" in camps get basic food requirements.

I assume you are talking about foodbanks. If that is the case, why do you think that the food should only go to British people?

I would not give a donation to any organisation that showed such prejudice.

Whilst I am British, I am also a member of the worldwide human race and as such would help anyone in need.

Food banks provide to the needy. If you think they should be stopped in case an illegal gets a packet of pasta, just come out and say it.

Happy for an organisation to support illegal activity then?

I think what the OP is getting at is that we need to make the UK less attractive so people dont risk their lives crossing the channel in dodgy dinghy's. It's not about 'starving' people its about making it not attractive to come here unless you are a genuine refugee who comes through the proper channels.

lol, "I have walked from Ulaanbaatar to Reading because I heard there was free food outside Tescos".

[youngmafbog]

And another one, that undoubtedly knows what is being said, chooses to latch onto one small part of the picture.

And in case you cant work it out, no giving free food wont stop it but add it to a bunch of other measures will make it far less attractive and hopefully (should do as that all seem to have mobiles) word will get out and they will stop coming unless they are a genuine refugee.

can we just arrange a straight swap with all the anti British, who run this country down every day and tell us how wonderful it is across the channel? I'm not a fan of the migrants but at least they want to be here.

you and Theresa May would have made a lovely couple, ymb!
