Extreme-leftist view? lol
What planet do you live in hobodog? Or more specifically, what kind of community? What's your frame of reference? I'd agree with you if you were comparing me to the views of an ardent neo-nazi, but compared to the opinions of most people in Britain I'd say my views are pretty moderate with a liberal slant on some, maybe most (but not all) issues.
I agree 100% lynx. The whole immigration/assylum issue needs re-examining and designing. At the moment it doesn't help the people it should help.
If you want to come to Britain and you have a genuine case for assylum, I'll gladly agree to my taxes being used to help you out. Hell, if you moved in next door to me I'll help all I can.
If you have skills valuable to this country and pursue a religion not in conflict with our laws, culture or way of life then you're welcome by all means. But you must learn English.
But if you're coming on a bogus assylum case, like the look of our social security system and think you can import your prejudices by creating some little enclave separate from the rest of Britain - forget it, you're on the next flight home.
It's a shame that 80% of all assylum seekers fall into the last catergory. This island is too small for it to be tolerated, as far as I am concerned.
