I Have Something to Say

My UK colleagues don't see it quite that way, they do indicate that there are such problems, but are more disturbed by their own countrymen who have degenerated to the kinds of behaviour you describe here. Not everyone "squatting" in the streets are immigrants. From their description I get a strong sense of "Clockwork Orange".

I have another friend in Lebanon who deals with the Syrian (and Iraqi) refugee problem much more directly... and of course, we can all (if we try hard enough) imagine being that displaced, that desperate, that helpless and on top of it being reviled by the people you are trying to find a new life among...

It's definitely complicated and subtle!

You may have to create a dictionary to keep up with the terms. :D
The vote was carried heavily here in the states.

Carissimi : FYI.. London voted to remain in EU.

Britts seemed to be a bit tired of open borders.

Open borders were part of the "New World Order" everyone can cross as they please, including terrorist to France.

I am in the States too, laser. I couldn't sleep, so watched the BBC live on the app.

BA, thanks, I know. I watched David Dimbleby (sp?) on my BBC app.

I can't say that I blame them. When London streets are turning into a toilet, where gypsies from other countries are pouring in to live on the streets as beggars, and literally using the streets as toilets. When what were once clean neighborhoods are full of trash, where rats are now seen, because the immigrants hold different values about trash and litter disposal than the Brits, then I know I'd feel the same. There are other issues, but this is but one example of the erosion of a culture when mass and uncontrolled immigration takes place with open borders.
