Facts are facts, but it always good to realise that sometimes how they are presented can be skewed, biased...political parties call this 'spin'....and they use it to bamboozle and confuse issues...believing that most of the electorate is thick...or should that be 95% of the electorate?

what gives you the right to be here? the fact that you, by no choice of your own and by complete luck that you was born in this particular place in contrast to other places in the world, what gives you the right to deny other people the right to live on this bit of land? I personally do not view any human as 'illegal' and in an ideal world would remove all borders completely. Alas this world is far from ideal.

You are a good reason, maybe you should be housed in a lunatic asylum, with your attitude, if we allowed every Tom Dick and Ali to come here set up a tent and go to the nearest DHSS office and draw on a system to which they have contributed nothing may suit you. I have the right to complain because I HAVE paid into that system, maybe your haven't and are benevolent sort of a person I'm not. I would have no problem if people come here and receive exactly the same payments they would receive back home, but then we wouldn't have a problem in the first place, they wouldn't bother at all

You miss the point entirely.
Well, except that the world is not ideal...and that is a bit of an understatement.

Being born here gives you the right to reside here, unless of course, you choose somewhere else....but then you have to seek permission of the country you wish to move to.

You have to satisfy this country that you are a worthy resident by having a job, a home or at least somewhere to reside...that you have the finances to support yourself and will not be a drain on the community that you want to become part of.
You have to show some sort of committment to this community,perhaps by learning the language and the customs of the community that you want to join.

NO....you do NOT have to abandon your own culture, but you do have to accept that it might not be the main culture of the area to which you are moving, and be graceful about that fact.

If you do not apply for permission, but move to your chosen country anyway disregarding all of those issues, then you have done so illegally.

You are in disrespect of the law of this land and you should not be afforded any of the privileges of that land......since you treat it, and its inhabitants with such disrespect.
You are expecting these people to support you, feed you home you and protect you, yet you do not respect them, or their values.

That is the reality of life on this globe.
We are a small island, and have for many years accepted all comers without question.

We have been tolerant of other races and creeds....but the people who have come have not always been tolerant of us...they want to turn our island into something like where they came from.
If they want something like the place that is their homeland, then my suggestion is that they return there.
