It's a simple question which Katie asked repeatedly and never gets an honest answer.

Not quite sure what some poor girl being raped has to do with this post Talbot, but, thanks for the link.

If you're clutching for straws trying to make some sort of analogy here that actually has some thing to with the topic I'll do my best to understand.

But it is not the same thing, is it?

You are missing out one very important factor, the indigenous populations of those countries didn't give up their lands easily, no they put up a fight.

Unlike us, who are just sitting back and allowing our invaders to change our lands beyond recognition.

Who's government is to blame? Who voted them into power?

And as far as your argument as to the indigenous fighting back, yeah right, spears and sticks put up a good battle versus canons, rifles etc.
If we could bottle guilt of empire we'd have much better preserved fences and sheds.

LABOUR and still would be if they ever happened to get back in power.

The easily disillusioned, I certainly didn't.

Those chosen to defend our lands at the start of WW2, (Dad's Army) only had bayonets on broom handles, not much more than the spears that you mentioned.
Yep AOG, and if my grasp of history is correct a fair few from down under came to help in your time of woe.
//If we could bottle guilt of empire//

Nobody would drink from the bottle ;-)

What's all this carp got to do with the OP?
You don't drink it ozzy, you paint it on and it lasts for ever but upsets those on the other side of the fence.

That is quite true but don't forget it was a WORLD WAR, and didn't a good few of our gallant men fight off the Japanese from your doors?

IMO it was a perfectly good reply to your rather silly

i]What goes around comes around].

Either you're not understanding it or you are refusing to understand it. Either way it stands.

AOG, a valid point, but when you're as Anti-Brit as Oz appears to be it doesn't count by the look of it!
The one eyed man is king amongst the blind, Talbot.
The question asked is "why do they want to come"

I would have thought the answer was obvious , They have come to believe that this is the land of milk & honey where everything is free. It is up to the powers that be to tighten up & show how wrong they are.
Yeah yeah, Balders, enjoy your cup of tea and lament the decline.

Ah bless, is that the XXXX talking I wonder.
Wrong state old mate ;-/

Keep thinking.

Oh, and one more thing, are you not an Immigrant living in someone elses Country?
//Why do they want to come?//

Most don't. Vast majoriry of refugees coming out of the middle east/north Africa go to countries in that region. The proportion coming to Europe is very small.

Those that do come here do it for all kinds of reasons. Because they know English, because they have family here (more common than you might think).

I'm all for a hard-headed logistical analysis as to how it is possible to house and process the migrants who come to Europe as there are surely limits to that which are currently being disproportionately shouldered by Italy, Greece and Germany. But this idea that they are all on the take and out to exploit the system never comes with any compelling evidence to back it up.
