French riots

I can't believe that immigrants think rioting will help their cause. IMO it will only further distance them from the "french" locals. Imagine how you feel if they trashed your town.

Its not Immigrants rioting. Its French kids of different backgrounds. Most of them are 2nd/3rd generation now. They are rioting in their towns. And the French government have already annnounced massive investments in those areas so it already has worked.

Bit of an unneccasy post steve. He could be busy, he could be holidays etc

Maybe he just grew tired of arguing with you. Either way there's no need for you baiting him...

I disagree. I'm fed-up of people with unpalatable views posting on this site and then - as soon as their idiocy is challenged - scurrying off to hide in the long grass before resurfacing with their extreme views in some other thread further down the line.....

Al very quiet from everyone's favourite bigot 'Condex' these days.

Perhaps he's realised the gross contradiction in his own ill-thought out 'beliefs' ? Or maybe he's simply lacking the balls to admit that everyone's made his arguements look stupid and proved him wrong.

So come on Spandex - do your squirming in public where we can all see you. There's plenty of things on this thread you've conveniently left unanswered in your disappearing act...

Thats all I need, a rabid righteous leftie frothing at the mouth, well Mr 'Managing Director'(I'm so impressed), I suggest you go back to managing your tinpot one man company.

What I'm for :
1) Controlled immigration : something akin to the policies adopted by Australia. eg If you have the required skills you get in...

2) Asylum seekers : if they in genuine fear of prosecution then they should be given sanctuary, but if they cause any trouble kick them out!!

3) Benefits : Use a carrot and stick approach to get people off benefits.


What I'm against :

1) Uncontrolled immigration : Their are tens of millions of people in the the 3rd world who would like to live in western countries, we can't take them all. Also, large scale immigration would end up changing the nature of the host country.

2) Islam : values are incompatible with western democracies.

3) Multicuturalism : which fosters segragation and prevents integration

4) Globalisation : Big companies will shift production and services to places like Eastern Europe, India, China and the Far East with no thought for the workers who are losing their jobs..
