I'm getting a tad fed up of people telling the rest of us what we should do to accommodate the world's poor and needy. Presenting them all as a net benefit to society irrespective of their skills, knowledge, background, political sympathies, criminal records, medical needs, mental health issues etc.
I've yet to hear of a single celebrity luvvie, politician or VIP who's put up a single migrant. What I have heard is those same people telling us we should do the right thing having done precious little themselves. Well I'd like our govt. to do the right thing by the people it serves before they start taking on the rest of the world's needy. I'd also like the usual suspects to either put up or shut up.
Now if any of that sounds like a rant to folks like Stop It then I'd ask them just how far their sympathy goes. A casual donation? A regular donation? Food? A significant sum? A bed? A room? More than one room? At what point do people trying, with increasing desperation, to force their way in become a threat as opposed to just people who need our help. No it's not a nice thought but I don't think there's a person here who'd significantly sacrifice the lifestyle of themselves and their dependants to help the migrants in Greece and elsewhere. Now if that's the case, what right should they have to try and dictate that Europe should take in even more refugees and migrants? So far as I'm concerned there's a great deal of hypocrisy about. It's all too easy to talk the talk whilst having no intention of walking the walk and it's no accident that those who talk the loudest deliver the least.
