Re: The Chronicles of Rishi
My son has buggered off to Australia. I almost advise everyone to do likewise!

Yes let's all invade in small boats. Long journey though, and they might want their country back at some point.
As predicted the non workers and pensioners will be all that's left in little England. Nige and Rishi won't be staying I can guarantee that.

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi
You have to question Rishi's loyalties. With most immigrants with visas are from India and Nigeria. The 2022 gross immigration figure is 606,000 (as widely reported in today's press). I also worry for social cohesion if this rate continues and multicultural imbalance increases.

Yes continue worrying about that and tow the party line, under no circumstances worry about
Not being able to heat your home
Not being able to cook food
Getting a pay rise
Falling ill
Swimming in the waterways
Using a train
Needing a dentist
Reporting a crime
Or
Being able to protest about any of the above
No wonder you're advising people to leave the country, shame they've lost freedom of movement to loads of countries though, still imagine how much worse it'd be under labour

Already been tried, unlike us, they were able to control the situation and stop it.

I'm afraid you've lost me here, Seph. 
You voted in 2016 to end free movement to/from Europe and to replace it with visa-led immigration from across the world, targeted at harder-to-fill job categories.
And you're now wondering why such immigrants have different cultural backgrounds than those from when we were in the EU?

I enjoyed my visits there, to Sydney, Melbourne, and the Gold Coast.
btw, I was offered a job by Telecom Australia (now Telstra) in the late 80s*, so your assertion, like so many, has no basis in actuality…
* I was involved in the privatisation of Telecom NZ, and some Telecom Australia execs visited us in Auckland to review what we were doing, and they asked me to be telephone interviewed the following week, and then offered me a job (I turned it down, as my family didn’t want to move to the Antipodes).

Quite simply, I can see our social cohesion being at risk as the cultural balance changes year by year. Is that what you want? Please answer that.
On the Sunak point, it’s the inner cricket side support thing. One cannot be seriously criticised for assuming that he has a pro-India bias. It’s culturally natural.
Then, with all those IT visas being granted to Indians (I have no problem with that so long as it’s not for families), how many of them are supplied from a business owned by Mrs Rishi’s family? This is a valud question in the interests of transparency.

Btw, I’ll walk into Andrew’s trap. EU workers are not a cultural threat. They integrate quite naturally and don’t demand slavery reparations. Nor are they machete trained.

Re: The Chronicles of Rishi
‘machete trained’ & ‘slavery reparations’?
Most of the legal migrants are from the Indian subcontinent, which is not famous for either slavery reparations or being machete trained…
Mate, you need to stop watching GBNews…

I don’t think he was referring to legal migrants.
More likely the well educated scholars coming over in small boats with their machete proficiency certificates.

Pretty sure the Afghans, Iraqi, Iranians, & Albanians (majority of boat people, who are asylum seekers, not illegal immigrants), aren’t ‘machete trained’ or seeking ‘slavery reparations’…

An Iranian is replacing my central heating boiler, highly recommended and much sort after he is too. Don't think he has a machete, but is 'gas safe'
