I find it dissapointing that people havent got something more constructive things to do with their time.
People from another counrty sponging off our "wonderfull system" are no different from the people who have lived here for generations and sponged off the state. Many people wrongly associate any problems we have in this counrty with immigrants.
Remember not all assylum seekers are evil fiddling people.
Im even more dissapointed that this has descended into an assylum rant when there is no indication of this woman being an assylum seeker. People who think the old lady was right are just as ignorant as the old lady for her outburst. Im white and i dont get labled. Yet most of my family came to England years back to make a different life for themselves. No one has the right to claim this land as their own. No one.

Nobody has said she was right. Some of us have just tried to argue the point that its not automatically racist to want a foreigner to go back to their own country. There can be other non racist reasons and one of those is the public opinion perpetuated by the redtops that assylum seekers get preferential treatment and are a reason for all the ills of the country.
Some people seem unable to make the distinction though and whenever anything is said against a black person or an asian person its racist. I just think it does those people who genuinely suffer from racism a disservice as it dilutes an important issue.
