I expected better from you, but let me try and explain it to you also?

Link: Jihadists in Nigeria pose a 'growing threat' to Britain.

Hence: Wouldn't it be wise to halt the number of Nigerians entering this country?

A little bit clearer perhaps?

Do we want any potential Jihadists coming into this country?

Oh it's such hard work dealing with some on here.

[emmie]

no we don't need any more coming here, but i think that ship has already sailed. As to Jihadists we are likely to see more of them on our streets in the not too distant future.
RR so you consider that a small percentage, i personally don't.

no it isnt clearer - but it DOES show that AOG ( bless the old fella!) is fearless about misquoting himself

With An Increasing Number Of Nigerians Coming Into This Country,..... increasing - is what the headline said.

as Trump might tweet - fake nooz - bad !

[Peter Pedant]

I have to say I do the same thing:
missquote insert or omit things in what other people have posted, in order to make their one-liner even more hilariously gormless.....

[anotheoldgit]

In 1991 there were 47,201 Nigerians living in Britain.
The 2001 UK Census recorded 88,378 Nigerian-born people resident in the UK. The 2011 Census recorded 191,183 Nigerian-born residents in England and Wales.

I rest my case.

[Rockrose]

Rest your case? Have you proven your case yet?

If that's what the defence secretary thinks, then he should make sure his bloody government do something about it !!

em - I think that is a strong percentage too.

Danny, //And I don't know ,or maybe I do,why you won't admit what is shown in your link.Numbers since 2015 have decreased.I shall now leave this argument.//

Your implication is insulting, but that aside, leaving a discussion seems to be your regular reaction when common sense deserts you. Look at the graph. From 2012 to 2015 between 178,000 and 181,000 Nigerians per annum came to this country. In the following three years that figure changed to between 194,000 and 199,000 per annum. That's an increase.

PeterPedant, take note. No fake news.

^ LOL.

[ummmm]

That's not funny. How strange!!

[anotheoldgit]

She's managed it again.

[hereIam]

Aww sorry it was removed aog, par for the course though on here, hers remain and yours go ….

[ummmm]

RR didn't say anything that others weren't saying. So AOG getting personal might be the reason why his answer was removed.

[Zacs-Master]

This thread was an AOG classic.

Step 1: Post a Title that didn't have anything to do with the link.
Step 2: Get challenged by other ABers
Step 3: Pull out some statistics which, instead of reinforcing your point, actually worsens it (to wit: AOGs statistics from 2011)
Step 4: Carry on regardless.


Fabulous.

If you would like to check you will find that I log off between 3pm an 4pm Monday to Friday with my common sense intact.

[naomi24]

danny, when you log off is irrelevant. You regularly scarper from discussions that aren't going the way you want them to.
