Brexiteers must be apoplectic...
Today?Brexiteers must be apoplectic...

Who are frothy mouths ?I think we have a duty. We are certainly not going to consider scuppering trade links with China are we.
More bloody foreigners though. What are frothy mouths going to say?
I take it this is a "bait the brexiteers" thread.
You need to grow up. What's happening in Hong Kong is pretty awful. Exceptional circumstances. We should help them and let those who want to come here do so.
Are you worried about getting your five a day ?At least we’ll have someone to pick the fruit and veg now.
Are you worried about being swamped?It only applies to people who were born before 1997 so many of them will be knocking on and have families in HK that aren't eligible so 3 million eligible but I don't think the uptake will be anywhere near that.
A bit like the 20k asylum seekers we granted protection to last year. Bit of an increase from that to 3 million, admittedly, but same principle. It's pretty awful in the Lebanon too, Syria, Sudan...What's happening in Hong Kong is pretty awful. Exceptional circumstances.

Bad news is it is possible to be born before 1997 and not be old. Still, as has already been pointed out earlier on, fruit picking problem solved.
Shouldn’t we all be?Are you worried about getting your five a day ?
You look at immigration from any method or reasoning and the majority are young and mobile whether they be students, professionals, illegal immigrants or asylum seekers. Not exclusively a young person’s game but by far the majority. In a nutshell I think you’re right. The numbers who take up won’t be the full number of those eligible. By any stretch.Yes, but if it was open to younger residents I think there'd be a bigger uptake.
Many of those eligible will have family there who can't come to the UK so I'd imagine they wouldn't want to leave them. Many of those eligible will also have the option of going to other countries.
I don't think we'll see anywhere near 3 million.

You're right. We have a negligible number come into this country in normal times, but some people still seem to get upset about that.It isn’t the same at all
You forgot we’re full.Brexit, Remainer, Labour, Conservative, Righty, Lefty Tommy Robinson, Katie Hopkins, Islamaphobia, Shoot the boats.
Completed it.

It is the same.No it’s not the same as China are breaching a specific agreement made between the two countries at handover
what negligable number is that ?You're right. We have a negligible number come into this country in normal times, but some people still seem to get upset about that.
but you said we need fruit pickers.You forgot we’re full.
No. Not worried about it at all.Shouldn’t we all be?

Yeeesssss !!!!!!Brexit, Remainer, Labour, Conservative, Righty, Lefty Tommy Robinson, Katie Hopkins, Islamaphobia, Shoot the boats.

It won't be anywhere near a million.
Australia are in the mix.I wouldn't have thought so either.
Australia are in the mix.
Well that should cheer up all the people who are outraged we can't let cheap labour from Europe come and do it.At least we’ll have someone to pick the fruit and veg now.
Nice one Reg, and I always love your avatar. Don't ever change it.Well that should cheer up all the people who are outraged we can't let cheap labour from Europe come and do it.
We wiped our hands with the Hong Kong problem, it's only right they should be allowed to try and settle here if they have a connection. If we gave up Gibralta, would we turn them away?
You forgot we’re full.
So it was announced today on the BBC. They're throwing their hat in.as one of the alternative countries?
