How many British people move to other countries America, Canada, Australia, Spain etc. without any problems. The reason being we don't scrounge of these countries. Would i go and live in another country and live on their benefit systems and take advantage of a tolerant country? No way i have to much pride!!

I doubt if you'd find the cross of St George flying on a Glasgow bin wagon.

As an immigrant into the USA, (because I married an American lady) I was not allowed to draw any unemployment benefit even though I was unable to work for the first six months because it took that long to obtain my green card (work visa). Your future spouse has to prove that he/she can support you if you decide never to work or can't secure employment. Now after working for, I think it is, two years, should you come out of work through no fault of your own, you can draw unemployment, which is quite generous really. I was laid off after 9/11 and was out of work for six months. Unemployment paid me $1000 per month which I think is pretty good. It is very difficult to get into America to live unless you are marrying an American citizen or you have more that $1M and intend starting a business which will employ Americans, or you have some skill which is in short supply. I think if you are a minister of religion you can get in easier. Having said that, we here have a lot of illegal immigrants and are also plagued with,so called, asylum seekers who really aren't.

Totaly agree,how can anybody justify not being able to fly your flag with pride.Other nationalities are allowed to do it.E.G The owners of the new restaurant down Church Monte Cristo,when Greece won Euro Championship they flew the Greek flag for a good few weeks later.And no doubt we will see a few Chineese flags about with the Chineese new year iminent.

I was checking info on the developers of this idea "Global Link" and came across a worldwide charity with the same name. Their aim is to promote peace throughout the world.
Nice idea...until I saw how they represented the Union Jack! Upside down which is an insult to queen and country:(
On looking again, I think the entire pattern is wrong!!

Add to that "inciting others to gang up and attack you when your back is turned".

The sad thing is that this turns people against other immigrants who simply want to live and work here as people tend to get tarred with the same brush.

Interestingly, flying the Union Flag upside down was once used by the Army to signal Danger.

We have lots of Polish people who are registered for work with our agency, they are not assylum seekers and are entitled to work in this country, all to do with being part of the EU

If that's the case get us out of the EU before anymore enter the country, there aren't enough jobs for the British people never mind the eastern europeans.
I checked out why 7 applicants came from the same address and it looks like a scam pretending to be a hostel.

we cant fly our flag but the council flew the pakistani flag above the town hall for months when an asian took over as mayor for a while as the present one retired or somthing it was 7 years ago

granada reports were interviewing people in the street and asked me what i thought and i said it was disgusting

i hung around for a while and listened in on other peoples opinions and nearly all of them were the same as mine

i went home and had my tea that night and tuned into granada reports ready for a good laugh and what happened...?

yes you guessed it they only showed people who thought it was a good idea

just goes to show how the media is under control by the pc brigade

govenment say there is no problem with the asian comunitys so if that is true why do propperty values plummit when they move into an area and why are the first words uttered upon enetering an estate agents " you got anything decent away from the asians"

they move into an area and let their property go so it brings house prices down so that they can buy more at the cheaper price

a prime example of this is blackburn road as no matter how many grants the govenment give them for thier properties they manage to ruin them within a few years and get yet another grant for their property leaving poor old pensioners waiting 6 months or more for as little as a new pane of glass in their window

the more i type on this subject the more i begin to sound like a member of the BNP or somat lol but it just goes to show by the responses in this thread that we are getting more than fed up with been treated like second clas citizens in our own country

downing street has some nice big houses why dont we see any imigrants there if they are so fond of them let them live next to them for a while and see how they like it when number 10 reduces value to £5,000

i wont give names but i know a few people whos parents are asian but when asked they say hell no ime english and are proud of it , its just a pitty all people born in the uk dont consider themselves british etc
