French Election

[Richard 1234]

Richard,

 

Did you take any Syrian refugees into your home?

 

.

 

 

No and I don't think I would.

 

I would rather pay our taxes in the form of benefits to these refugees than the so called benefit street though.

No and I don't think I would.

 

 

Why not?

What's old Theresa got to say about immigration?

Bit lazy of me I know, but I find it hard to listen to her saying nothing, don't like googling her because pictures always come up too. She's not easy on the eye.

Why not?

Think the days of "boarded outs" are past now, why would you suggest a refugee family should live in somebody else's home?

Because the people who are most vocal at claiming to stand up for refugees wouldn't help them at all on a personal level. They want everybody else to be generous on their behalf.

 

If a person was truly looking to help a Syrian refugee then surely giving them a roof over their head shouldn't be a problem?

 

Nicola Sturgeon said she’d happily have a Syrian refugee stay in her home in Scotland. After a year Sturgeon’s spokesman admits that she is still yet to do so, they say this is simply because there has been no need to. It turns out that ‘it has so far been possible to house refugees without asking individuals or families to provide shelter’. With a number of Syrian refugees who have been given sanctuary in Rothesay complaining that the area is ‘where people come to die’, you suspect they wouldn’t say no to the offer of a stay in the beautiful Bute House, in Edinburgh with your Dear Leader.

Would you take a Syrian refugee into your home in Mull? No. I didn't think so because you'd have done by it now.

The point isn't my home mulls home or even Mrs krankys home.

The state should pay for helping these people through our taxes mine and yours and everyone else who can be bothered to work to pay taxes. Those that won't work are not relevant to anything at all in my view. Those that are truly disabled need help too.

Richard and Mull,

 

You lecture people on immigration and refugees yet neither of you will take a Syrian refugee into your home.

 

You both virtue signal how 'right on' and 'liberal' you are in public but do nothing in your private lives to help immigrants or refugees. Instead you expect 'the state' to do everything for you like the scummers on benefit street. By telling everyone 'the state' should help the refugees that leaves your concious clear, you've done nothing but hollow gesture politics on social media.

 

Nicola Sturgeon wouldn't even let a homeless Scottish person into to her house let alone a Syrian refugee. Yet she claims to want a 'fairer society'. She's certainly not going to lead by example.

 

Why will neither of you welcome a Syrian refugee into your home? What's the problem?

Every time you switch on the news you see more Government cutbacks. The government has to make these cutbacks because people like you want more migrants in the country.

 

If you and Mull want to help the migrants you should help them out of your own pockets. You shouldn't expect everyone else to suffer because you want to "virtue signal".

 

If I had a family member on an NHS waiting list I'd be livid reading your guff.

That's a very cynical outlook!

 

Believe it or not plenty of people feel genuine compassion towards families who are escaping the living hell that is civil war. Surely it obvious most people don't have the means to take refugees into their home, doesn't make them hypocrites. Showing support for something you don't have the means to affect directly isn't a hollow gesture - it forms part of public opinion. Public opinion is the reason Thereasa May turned away thousands of Syrian children.

 

We have a history of taking in refugees. We took in around 10,000 Jewish children in the 1930s/40s. That's something to be proud of in my opinion
