Just listening to a report on Radio 4 on the inability of the Government to keep track of immigrants after they arrive in the UK…I know there’s quite a number of these guys but there are 33 million + vehicles in the UK and they can find my ZZR quickly enough when my road tax is due…
I say put the DVLA in charge of immigration…Job done;)
do u work for them? Dont know who can keep this subject under control, cos look how long immigrants have been coming here,getting jobs,houses,marrying etc to stay here, for years…its only cos weve had SO many more come into the country and its got noticable, that someone is now saying “we better look at ways of combating this problem”…too little, too late…as per usual with this country…
The wheel most likely originated in ancient Mesopotamia (what is now Iraq) in the 4th millennium BC. The oldest wheel known was discovered in Iraq and probably dates back to 3,500 B.C.
Below is a pic of ancient mesopotamians (sumerians) using wheeled chariots;)
Bloody hell, when did this become the history channel? :w00t:
Personally, I think the problem with immigration is that we don’t have the same system as other countries. I’m all for people coming here for the right reasons, willing to work and pay taxes etc… But, when you have people coming here because they know they can milk our benefits system, health system and get housing and clothing allowances, then I think the system is failing. In an ideal situation, if an immigrant comes through the border and doesn’t have the necessary documentation, or hasn’t got qualifications in a skill that is needed in this country, then he/she shouldn’t get passed immigration! In a lot of cases, especially with the illegal immigrants, it is down to our neighbouring countries letting them through customs and not caring about why they are coming to the UK and carrying all their worldly belongings!
Lastly, the law’s of our country are too namby pamby when it comes to dealing with illegal immigrants. If they are here illegally, send them packing! Don’t put them in a detention centre, which is better than the accomodation our soldiers live in! Ask any soldier if his room is en-suite with a free T.V. and he’ll laugh at you!
Like I said, if they turn up without the correct documentation etc… turn them around, put them back on the plane, and let France/ Germany/ Spain and the rest, deal with the problem! It seems to me that it’s a game of pass the parcel, and we’re the last one in line when we get the parcel!
We are a country that has flourished by the acceptance of immigration. We are a multi cultural sosciety. Sadly, we are also the number one destination for anybody who wants an easy system to milk, and we only have the Labour Government to blame for it!
