If they can't live in peace amongst themselves they won't be able to live in peace with us.... Sorry, I think we should be sending them back.

Is there really much of a difference between a tree surgeon butchering a tree and a storm butchering a tree?

Africans having lots of kids doesn't seem to work for them. They have so many that they can't grow enough food to feed them. if you live on a farm that can grow enough food for 5 people and you have a family of ten you will starve, it really is that simple... If they had less kids they could feed them and spend more time/money on them.... Just like us europeans..... every single environmental problem you can think of would be improved if there were less people on the planet....

Dictaphone to record conversations?

tbh, I don't think deforestation is caused by construction in Europe...

The thing that will make a real difference to the third world is population control... It seems to be that nothing we do in Africa makes a difference. In the 1980s we had Ethiopia and Bandaid, it meant we gave Ethiopia lots of food and now their population is three times what it was in the 1980's...

My previous employer told me I had to turn a blind eye to safety issues. 6 weeks later I was handing my notice in and starting a new job. Sometimes you just have to move on..... Do you know any of the bosses to talk to? Maybe see what they have to say?

By most standards places like Europe are the"best". Why do you think people sneak into Britain hiding beneath a lorry if our country wasn't better than theirs? Do you really think letting in migrants with no money/ education/ skills improves the life's of Brits? Why should brits be left on council house waiting lists when migrants skip the queue....

But education levels are a fairly good indicator if an immigrant will make a positive contribution to the UK.... Angela Merkel has previously said that multiculturalism has "failed, utterly failed" in Germany. The truth is we just can't integrate some cultures. Sunni and Shia Muslims have been fighting each other for a thousand years, do you think they will live in peace with us?

I don't want to sound "racist", but does anyone think that accepting migrants from a country with a 37.8% literacy rate is a good thing? I just don't see how migrants from the likes of Somalia will contribute to the UK.... Effective Literacy Programmes › Somali Distance Education and Literacy

“secondly, as i suggested in my original post you could read about post war immigration into the UK to fill the enormous void in the labour market which was actively encouraged. this should help you to see atleast some benefits of immigration.” Yeah, everyone knows that after WW2 that many Indians/ Pakistanis went to Bradford etc to work in the textile industry. Did the migration help the textile industry long term? Would you want to stay in Bradford? Does Britain need more workers now? "i'd love it if you could stop making huge generalisations about ethnic groups, like the plumber you mention. seriously wtf? that plumber does in no way represent that nations workforce's ability than you or anyone else does for british workers" OK, I worked on a construction site in the Middle East with several hundred workers from the sub-continent. My mate was a Project Manager on a construction site with about 500 workers from the subcontinent. The plumber was fairly representative of their skill set… If you want I can find you the literacy rates for Pakistan/ India etc? "clearly we are both pretty set in our ways and stubborn, and i will admit you would have a pretty hard time convincing me of your opinions on immigration" Well how about this for the first fact: “Unemployment among ethnic minorities costs the economy almost £8.6 billion a year in benefits and lost revenue from taxes. Half of Muslim men and three quarters of Muslim women are unemployed.” It’s from the Equality and Human Rights Commission….. Well done for managing to use the word “racist”. That word has done more than any other to shut debate down.

to be fair the immigrant populations don't really do themselves many favours.... cutting someone's head off on a street in London doesn't really make many friends.... perhaps you could name some of the benefits that migration brings? you might make me change my mind on the wisdom of migration...

some more child rape and terrorism you mean?

I've worked with third world labour and tbh their skill set is unbelievable bad. We had an Indian plumber install a toilet in a portacabin, the U bend was outside and about 4 foot above the toilet bowl..... An Iraqi we had checked the acid levels in batteries by dipping his finger in.... when someone said "wtf, that's acid!" he said "no, no mister, that's water". He thought since you topped the batteries up with water it was water inside... Lol, I also heard about an Iraqi Marine that was told to clean his gun... he put it in a washing machine....

What do you grow on your farm? Is there a demand for rental property in your area? perhaps let someone pitch a caravan in your yard? Do you have stables? Allow some horsey types to keep their horse at your farm? Storage? Caravan storage? Maybe even see if there's a arb related website and see if any tree surgeons want to store their stuff/ tip waste?

is it any good against cats?

A bit of a result then! I would hold firm.

are you buying 2m high trees? you can buy 60cm high ones for about 50 pence... and you can plant them in a few minutes.

what do you mean 2mt oak trees? a 2m spacing or 2m high? planting 2m high trees would take a lot of work.... if the ground is wet how about digging a pond?

If I had a female groundie the company uniform would involve a tight white T shirt.

planting trees, I've planted about 9,000. I've also got a shotgun and keep tropical fish.

A nice pair of tits.

Egg boxes on the inside? thick shrubs around your cave?

No I was doing a skilled job that quite frankly no local could have done. Lol, I remember the days of having a private beach and a 27 year old hot Polish air hostess girlfriend

Well President Assad has a fairly decent army..... The Middle East also has plenty guns.... I can assure you that many of the migrants aren't even from Syria.... I spent 6 months in Iraq and two years in the Middle East working as an engineer. Perhaps I'm more qualified to comment on these migrants than most here? I've seen some of the migrants give the "one God" ISIS hand signal. Do you not see problems for Europe by letting terrorists in? We continually see that the NHS is under pressure and there are not enough houses etc, will letting in migrants help these problems?
