Yeah, don't come to Coventry much at all these days. The migrants here are housed in an old army barracks. At least, they were anyway.

I did used to know how it worked, because I used to volunteer for the refugee centre. Been out of the loop for a number of years though

That's very racist. The black economy? Get yourself in the bin!!! 🤪

There's kids in general running around with knives. All walks of life.

Yeah, I am uncomfortable with "swamped." It's a very provocative and dramatic word and stuff like that just winds people up.

Yeah, sorry. I agree with that. I think it's across the nation and all cultures. Just seem to be breeding a younger generation of laziness and self indulgence. Generalisation of course, but I see it even with my missus' kids and their friends.

No. It wasn't that bit I was focusing on. I misread another part of the post. My apologies.

I misread it. I will delete the post

Okay, my bad. Misread it. I know bloody loads of white, British feckless types.

Why do you think that is? I am sure most would. I think the problem lies in HOW you do that. How do you control it? And what do you do with those genuine people who are actually escaping persecution?

I am not trying to do that. I am just repeating what some are actually saying and many ARE saying close the borders completely. Stop all migrants coming in. I mention the NHS, because that is an area where migration has been vital I am pointing out the huge disparity, that's all. Not trying to...

You sure about that? Don't mean to nitpick, but £100 a night? At the Allesley hotel? It's a small point, but I never pay £100 a night for a hotel anywhere.

I have said it's a problem. The numbers. We can't cope with the number of people coming in, so it does need better control. We can't be treating them all as pariahes though. Some immigration is good. An open border policy I think, would be a disaster. Some want the borders closing...

Yes, it does. Go on the streets and do a vox poll, asking how much financial support people think these migrants are getting. I bet you that not one person would say £9.58 a week in spending money. So many think they are living the life of Riley . So much misinformation out there and so...

What do you mean by "opposing immigration?" All immigration? Obviously that's impossible. I know of hardly anyone who is saying immigration is NOT a problem. It's all about balance and controlling it. We all know the Farage comment of it will be "just open the borders, let them all in", is...

It needs that discussion. What it doesn't need is people rioting on the streets.

So for any asylum seeker, housed and given food, they get £9.58 a week to spend.

I think you should read this https://fullfact.org/immigration/illegal-immigrant-benefits-access/

Yes. She said it's a lifestyle choice.

Disagree. I read the forums down here. So very many think people coming over get anything they want. Hotel, good, clothes, benefits. You only need to read what people are posting and what they are saying on the streets. So many falsehoods. All men coming over, don't care about their wives...
