Interestingly you say I'm inherently racist.
Let's say for arguments sake I am, where is your evidence ? It's a fair question isn't it ? You will have my full Co operation you can research my posts and I give you my word I will answer honestly any questions you ask ......but please don't assume that being against mass immigration means I'm a racist.
That is an easy one.
You cannot explain your position without demonising immigrants.
Your whole argument relies on demonising immigrants to propagate your politics.
Even mightygob would have to agree to that! (see below, from the Farage's poster thread, and I am applauding you for your comments, not criticising!)
As for you answering questions honestly...... I will put you in the same category as a**e end and bishbosh, racists are inherently deceitful.
They are either deceiving themselves, or they are trying to deceive others.
As anyone ever met anyone who was racist, and they have openly admitted their racism?
As anyone ever met anyone who was sexist, and they have openly admitted their sexism?
etc........
And that poster was from many a person who were desperately seeking safety and yes, a better life. People who'd lost their home, their jobs, family members and everything they held dear because of war.
People should remember it's not just a bunch of 'freeloaders'. Perhaps a bit of empathy or at least understanding towards those who have lost everything wouldn't go amiss.
There have been plenty of women and children. You are just choosing what to see.
I'd want to leave that too, as fast as my legs could carry me, wouldn't you?

Just in one year there were 25,000 children who arrived in Italy alone, not including any of those who arrive with relatives.
Refugees. Not economic migrants.
I am using my eyes. Read Gas, don't rely on propaganda videos for all your information. Get a broader view before you tell things as facts! That's 25,000 unaccompanied children as I said, not all children.
This website, save the children, says at the bottom that worldwide there are 22.5 million refugees, half of those are children who are trying to escape conflict, violence and persecution.
That's an awful lot of children isn't it?
There are very few people that can and do discuss immigration without demonising the immigrants.
Almost without exception, the problems apparently caused by immigration are not the cause of immigration, but the lack of government (not just UK) policy to deal with sufficient resources.
Take a silly (but horrifyingly real) scenario in other countries: refugee camps - place thousands (even hundreds of thousands) of refugees in makeshift camps without water, food, clothing, sewerage, medicine, work, income, etc, and what are the expected problems?
Pretty obvious!
Put those same people in proper accommodation, with proper access to the basic resources that we take for granted and the problems associated with poverty, sickness, disease, etc would simply not arise.
Even better, prevent the need for migration in the first place!
And yes, western society is as guilty as anyone of producing the need for migration by their policies (political, economic and military, historically and current) towards other parts of the world.
It is not the fault of the immigrants who find themselves in situations they would prefer to avoid.
