There. Resident WHO political commentators and gurus can knock yourselves out in here and conduct your endless bickering. All other threads will be locked.

I’m not saying there isn’t.
If you chose to cross the channel and drown, your fault.
If you chose to climb a lamppost and fall off, your fault.
If you choose to live in Broxbourne,your fault

I see a man fell off a lamppost hanging up a flag in Bristol and all those foreign NHS staff weren’t able to save him

Yeah, I've been seeing a lot of Left leaning people openly laugh and mock his sudden death online of someone trying to show pride in their Country. The tolerant and caring Left are proper sick in the head and backwards in their core beliefs when such tragic events occur - See also family Christian man Charlie Kirk’s death being mocked/celebrated.
 
 
Showing pride in the country?! I live in south Bristol and know a lot of city season ticket holders - so I have a decent understanding about what is going on here - believe me, it’s not all about pride. 
It’s a sad story. There’s dick heads on both sides of an argument like this so saying the left are all sick because of what you’ve seen on social media is just a ridiculous point. It just fuels divide. Just accept there’s valid points on both sides. No one is ‘right’ and you ain’t gonna solve through just chucking shit at each other. 
I work for a refugee charity in Bristol. And I’m not a communist, Marxist nor do I want open borders. But as a working class British person - I know I have a lot more in common with the refugees and asylums seekers I meet than the rich pricks fuelling this issue. I try to veer away from political stuff on here because I know I’ll get shot down but seeing some of the language on here like ‘rapey boat cunts’ from fellow West Ham supporters just makes me incredibly sad tbh.

Had the government (either flavour) AND the State managed immigration in a timely & competent manner as required/expected by the incumbent population (or managed it at all), none of this would be happening.

ps Your son is an immigrant so would be weird if he was anti immigration 
The Kiwis in Australia are immigrants so are just a bit thick obviously

I saw some of the social media posts with flag hangers saying people should show empathy for the silly old fool climbing a lamppost 
Pointed out that the bloke would have been first to celebrate people drowning in the channel 
The flag hanging isn’t patriotism it’s an attempt to intimidate anyone who doesn’t fit your idea of British ie white
Just be honest 

Yes, there is racism in Australia and a similar campaign against immigration. Lots of right wingers there as well. Probably why they are still lumbered with the medieval nonsense of the monarchy
Lots of racism in America too mostly coming from the President … notice you don’t condemn that. 
Any news on the motivation of the bloke that shot Kirk? The bloke from a staunch MAGA family

Funny how Sven never addresses the rampant racism in Australia, a place which he seems to adore.  My Mrs is an Aussie and one of her sons is married to a second generation Croation. The last time we visited i paid over 2.5 k for an air b& b rather than be around when he would kick off with her. If I reeated some of the slurs I'd probably get kicked off of her.. 
I've now visited Australia 4 times and I can say in all honesty that as well as being better than us at cricket, they leave us standing when it comes to being racist. I have a son over there and all his mates are obviously Aussies or Kiwis and they cant believe how laid back he is whenever a conversation turns to foreigners/ immigration.

And yes,MA is right, I never remember seeing the right celebrate the death of a prominent lefty but that really is a one way street.
People who were born years after she left office were partying in the streets when Thatcher died. Fucking sick.

Are there any ex-colonies that have out-performed the world norms in any metric (except, maybe birth rate)?
The decision to dish out a British Passport to the entire  Commonwealth nations in the 60s  is playing out now.

The affore mentioned USA, Australia and New Zealand?
Compare former British influence compared to the French cunts and it tells a story.
All the french gaffs are utter shitholes...and they learned jack shit ..except for being a cսnt who can speak french.
We have a legacy to be proud of as far as I'm concerned 
Aside from our portion of USA .. Canada .. Australia..New Zealand  by comparison is quite telling
