Suella Braverman - sacked as Home Secretary (p394)

I'm lost. I don't know what you mean. So many updates and messages. Sorry

Ah fair enough. You said about it’s on the .gov website backing up the point you made earlier when you said this -

“A lot of people who are not white identiifying are on benefits, in work or out. That's detrimental to the economy“

I was asking whether that was referring solely to immigrants or were you talking about people taking benefits in general? As I don’t get the point you were trying to make there to know what to check on the gov website.

Messageboards in general seem to have been taken over by a legion of Thomas Mair bots.
All spurred on by the likes of Braverman and her ilk.
What a sad state of affairs.

I’m still waiting for you to answer my question!

It was about cost to the UK?

There is, according to the website that shall not be named, lots of people on benefits and in work benefits who identify as not white. Whether these are people are born here, came here recent or 20 years ago, it doesn't say. But if we need immigrants to fill jobs this is worth looking into. That was my point

But not when you are insulting someone eh.

Wrong. I’ll insult any idiot, bigot, racist or fascist regardless of their colour, ethnicity race or religion.

 

[Aphex]

What has ethnicity got to do with Britishness ?

Nothing. Unless you are British as soon as you set foot on British soil? C'mom

Good comeback.

Now you know how I feel!

To give you a less flippant response... I would in an ideal world want our country to be self-sufficient and not relying on imported labour, and then we'd be free to determine an amount of immigration that ensures people coming here enjoy the same quality of life that everybody else here enjoys. Who wouldn't want that?

My point is that the government's policy has done the opposite of this, it's made us heavily reliant on immigrants to fill gaps, and so blaming the immigrants for digging us out of a problem of our government's making seems more than a tiny bit backwards.

I've got a question for anyone on here.

Explain why diversity is so desirable. And if it is, then will ever changing diversity improve on the diversity we have, or will it be detrimental to the diversity that existed in that moment?

Why do you ask?
