    Bastille Day

    No,you made sweeping unsubstantiated generalisations. You desrved to be challenged,for the sake of the forum and intelligent, informed debate. If you find that difficult,i wont try to exclude you from it,i will simply suggest that you try to deal with it.

    Bastille Day

    by the way, for those who can understand, I was merely pointing out that you did not support your views with evidence. It was an analogy, if that makes sense to you?

    Bastille Day

    so, when you're not being insulting, you try to bully others off forums. Interesting. I'm sure it cant possibly have any links with your views about refugees and migrants, could it?

    Bastille Day

    well, how about evidence? we all have overvalued ideas (I think right wing types struggle with chronic impotence, for example) it doesn't mean we are allowed to make sweeping inferences (I have no evidence for that and am not presenting it as fact, by the way, I suspect its just chronic IBS)

    Bastille Day

    all this will achieve is loads of grief for tourists: in usa they did/do this and homeland security (with all of its considerable intellect went bananas) and it did nothing to prevent the Orlando nightclub shootings.

    a substantial number of brits travelling abroad are jihadists http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-32026985 they may have done more terror than isis in the west have(think all the car bombs in Iraq and Syria, and Nigeria's problems with Boko Haram). How would we feel if the world felt British visitors...

    yes, I was about to say Mohamed Bouhlal (Nice terrorist) was also an ice cream seller and that that doesn't mean all ice cream sellers are suspect, but apologies if that sounds a making light of an awful tragedy

    Bastille Day

    it's a bit like newt Ginrich wanting to interview every Muslim in usa and ask them whether they support sharia law - and deport them if they say yes. what kind of committed terrorist will say to an fbi interviewer he "supports sharia law"? sometimes one has to stand in awe of politicans'...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    same andrew mitchel implicated in tax avoidance, voted in support of the death penalty (and of course swore at the police). What are you comparing the EU to? Norway and breivik? USA and 9/11 or san bernadino or orlando nightclub shootings? UK and 7/7 or Jo Cox's murder etc

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    contrary to the perception of some here (who should really think of better things to do than googling the meaning of words such as immigration. Sheesh brendan, where to start? get a bloody life) Singapore really has a more open economy and immigration policy than the EU. Try to come to the EU as...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Singapore has a largely open door policy to migrants, more so than the EU, it was a major issue in the 2011 generla election and came to a hea dwith teh 2013 Little Inidia Riot (I'm married to a singaporean, trust me i know it). But google wont have told you that.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    before you get entirely carried away with your new paradigm bear in mind that, say, Singapore has had to sign free trade agreements with all its neighbours, and as a result four out of every ten of Singapore's population are first generation immigrants. Insular short sighted xenophobia and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    yes, what the world needed most is Boris as a our minister of foreign affairs (thankfully he will have nothing to do with Europe) and a usa under trump. that will really stabilise things.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    i agree with what you say except for two things - her record at the home office (think about her support for the detention of david Miranda, or the snoopers charter; she can I fear have the kind of delusional right wing tantrums that could cost us all very dear with her as prime minister); also...
