buying your first house - impossible!

Are you claiming that 75% of your students were immigrants?

Yep. Funding was geared towards them. We had ‘output' to hit and we had to hit within 20% of those oitputs. And yes, I took no more Roma Gypsies.

Mottie used to live in a country where married men were entitled to rape their wives or ex-wives, even if legally separated and living apart.

Only since 1992 has he lived in a country where marital rape is a crime.

Thought you needed reminding the world had moved on..

so mottie lived in a country where marital rape was permitted.

he says

Yes, I have. But that’s in their community and culture. If they want to join our community and culture, they play by our rules.

What do you think of a country like that?

Just because something isn't yet a crime in a country does not mean many people don't disagree with it.

A country like that

well it sounds like present day Iran or Saudi Arabia

Maybe more than half the world's population live in countries where marital rape is not illegal. India and China account for almost half of the world alone.

what did it cost to educate, house and provide healthcare to them or doesn’t that count

EEA nationals contributed more to the state than they took.

I know that doesn't fit with your bias, but it's the fact.

There are many countries where spousal rape is not a criminal offence.
It's not surprising that you only mention the country that is your favoured target of racist comments.

In addition Christianity teaches that women are obliged to submit to their husbands demands. So it's an unknown how many women, throughout supposedly civilised Christian countries, are pressured into sex against their wishes.
The majority of Islamic followers do not recognise marital rape as rape, although injury to the wife is considered a crime, and this is interpreted by some as forbidding marital rape.

We must also remember that a lot of ex-colonial countries adopted their law from the examples set by the colonial powers.

It didnt cost a penny to educate them, nor house them and provide healthcare to them while they were growing up.

We got all those workers without having had to pay to make them.
