A simple question requiring a simple answer.

Yet here we go again.

Whataboutery ignoring official government numbers or ones from the Goldman Sachs previously employing Sunak, and your very own words.

Not to mention playing the Mail-esque media's game of twisting and turning Starmer's family values into some sort of dereliction.

The same characters who repeatedly patted Boris the Liar on the back.

But hey, after your desperation to smear Angie Raynor for summat she didn't do...


I will admit to being intrigued that you only picked items that suited your agenda, should have just thrown a load of stuff in there for the comparison, would have been more fun.

I have never praised Boris (I'll not use childish names) on the back, in fact my consistent comments is he has been sacked from every job possible and shouldnt have been near the PM job....

As for SKS, I admire his desire but I think it is naive and simple to think he can do it and still do the job properly.

I never read that Angie had found a way to have two PPRs... I suspect she found a way to fill in her CGT form a few years late to show no tax payable. Otherwise she would be publishing her tax advice so that we can all have 2 PPRs (and I did apologise... something in short supply on here from those best at dishing out insults)
Stay Home. Stay Safe.

No, sorry, no whataboutery, just a straightforward answer to a straightforward question, please...




It?s not a straight forward question though it?s a loaded one that has not accounted for all economic influences.

Just say immigrants are not the biggest economic factor

'Bob's Board' quiz time.

Place the following in order of impact on the UK economy:

Brexit.

Liz Truss's 'Kwar Crash' budget.

Asylum seekers...



Asylum Seekers third I imagine

Are you suggesting it doesn?t matter how many come or how much they cost the taxpayer because it?s less than the others on the list?

It's both.

Demonstrating the absurd dishonesty of those who applauded Brexit and Truss loudest - Farage and the Mail-esque media - now blaming asylum seekers for financial constraints.

You, I and every informed person knows what that's about.

And where it leads...

Can we add Blair's PFI deals, Blairs "make benefits pay" approach...?

And soon to add the Labour tax hikes and tax and spend policies...?

Asylum seekers will be needed soon to add workers to a nation that have too many old people costing money, too many economically inactive people costing money, and too few workers paying money in...

Happy days.

So illegal immigration isn?t putting an enormous amount of financial strain on not only the government financially but local services and reducing some local services in certain areas to breaking point?
Let?s see how Starmers new border task force works with taking control of our borders.

Dunno having thought about it

What does an illegal migrant cost per day?

?200?

Times that by 365 and times that by 5 years and times that by 100000

Add in legal fees, border force here and in France

Add in NHS costs, schooling, interpreters, prisons and we have a very big number.

More like 100 - shared room, basic food, very small cash allowance.

100 then that?s 35k a year

379 in the last 3 days

35000 x 379 is over 13 million

That?s 3 days worth if they stay for a year, for 5 years worth staying 5 years you?d need a much bigger calculator

Plus the add ins I mentioned

EOC thought he was asking a rhetorical question, I like to see his workings out.
