Kos Chaos

[lynbrown]

The situation is too much for the island policemen. Is it time to send in the army? Or what other alternative is there?

[mikey4444]

Danny...you are right, so why is it Labours fault ?

[dannyk13]

Because they encouraged immigration into the UK, which opened the flood gates, where do you think those on Kos were heading to?

[ummmm]

To do what though? Send them back? Help process them?

[mikey4444]

Danny...I have no idea, and nor do you. They are just glad to get out of the war zone which is the Syria of today. There are many countries that these refugees could be heading for, not just Britain. They could be hoping to go to Denmark, Sweden, or Germany, where many of them have already settled.

Your point about Labours is spurious, as we opened our Borders to legal immigrants, from the new countries that joined the EU, not to illegal immigrants.

I repeat my question, after over 5 years of dave, and the Tories, what is he and his party doing about the situation now ?

//the British Police seem to be entirely surplus to requirements in Magaluf at the moment//

what do you base that statement on - do you know what their remit was?

So opening our borders to legal immigrants didn't give any ideas to the illegals?

Mush...we need those police back here in Britain. The various Police forces around the country are struggling to keep their heads above water, what with all the savage cuts. Earlier this week, we learned that some forces will not be investigating burglaries properly.

The situation in Magaluf is entirely due to the Spanish, allowing it to become a problem in the first place. Its their fault and I want our Bobbies back on patrol on our streets, not patrolling along the streets of a tacky Spanish costa.

//Mush...we need those police back here in Britain//

absolutely. but your last post suggested they be sent on to kos which, last time i checked, was still not part of the united kingdom.

Mikey, //after over 5 years of dave, and the Tories...//

You’ve said that several times – twice on this thread alone – but I told you a few days ago we haven't had 5 years of Dave and the Tories, we've had 5 years of a coalition government.

//I feel even sorrier for the 100,000's that are fleeing for their very lives.//

Firstly hundreds of thousands aren’t fleeing for their lives – as has been said a great many of the people arriving in Europe are economic migrants, and secondly I wonder how sorry you’d feel for them if they landed in your neck of the woods destroying the infrastructure there along with the local people’s livelihoods as is happening on Kos? I’m convinced that you that you fail to engage your brain before climbing on your soap box.

[mikey4444]

Naomi....we had 5 years of Tory rule, with the Limp/Dems hanging on their coat tails, with their tongues are far up dave's ar&e as it was possible to get......it is as plain as the nose on your face ! I don't see the point of debating this issue with you again.

I shall ignore the personal remarks in your last paragraph. Even you must admit that many of those landing on Kos, and other places are fleeing for their lives. Assad has been dropping barrel-bombs on his own people for years, and he is a butcher, just his father before him. As well as Assad, these people now have the tender mercies of various Islamic terrorists to fear from as well.

I wonder what you would do if you and your young family were faced with that kind of assault on their daily lives. Stay and be murdered ?

[naomi24]

But most of them aren't facing that kind of assault in their daily lives - that's what you seem to fail to comprehend. Most of them are economic migrants who are jumping on the bandwagon. Do you really think that Europe can support an endless stream - and it will be endless.

[ludwig]

We obviously have a duty to offer sanctuary to everyone that's living in a godawful poverty stricken hellhole and being subjected daily to religious, political or racial persecution and intolerance.

That'd be the whole population of Africa then...oh dear.

Yes and there are many African countries they are coming from, not just Syria, a large proportion of these migrants are simply economic migrants, hell bent on dragging most of Europe down to their own Third World living standards.

Regarding your attempt at blaming the Tories for all this, they have only been in power since May, the Government before was a Coalition Government, which was dragged down by their Lib/Dem partners and a Labour opposition.

Most of us are aware, that both of these parties are anti-British who would rather support the needs of Johnny Foreigner, than feel concern for their own country and it's people.
