Yes, most migrant recruiters are in London; as I said before this is a conseqnence of economic not immigration policy.

Well we could throw stats and figures around all day,

We could.... but I'm grateful for the fact that your are supporting your opinion with some evidence. I don't agree with your analysis mind
I don't mean to sound patronising saying that and hope you don't take it that way; I'm just tired of people submitting empty posts that simply reveal their prejudices rather than their knowledge

but can you deny there are a great many immigrants entering UK daily and most are muslim.
|
Well yes because net immigration levels are not excessively high and, as Aaronovitch pointed out, migration is cyclical

Fact: terrorists and illegals are entering the UK.

In response - an opinion; in suggesting we shou;d keep out all Muslims and bar expression of the faith, we are over-reacting.

Fact: there are those amongst us who will protect the rights of the wrongdoing minority, in the name of correctness, at the expense of the law abiding majority.

No, that's an opinion, not fact. An opinion not borne out by reality I might add (in my opinion!)

I take it then you perceive no threat ?

More concerned about getting run over by a lunatic driver frankly; it's called risk assessment

Can I ask you - Do you welcome unregulated immigration, immigration with strict regulation, deportation of failed assylum seekers, deportation of illegal immigrants.
|
Who said anything about unregulated immigration? All I seek is a fair system which takes into account the real risk of persecution which people may face (in places like Congo, Zimbabwe etc to where we are currently repatriating with seemingly gay abandon) and does not discriminate according to race.

How do you feel about the rights of all / any EU resident (think what that extends to now and in the future) to arrive in the UK, to work or not and enjoy the same benefits as native Britons.

Well we are free to do the same across Europe. Do you think the word 'union' implies anything like, I don't know, unity?
