Why do we have Chinese people ? I don't know.
|
|
By:
If you didn't pick a place of birth it must be random..
|

enoch was right ...rivers of blood

By:
I am glad we do have Chinese people.
|
|
By:
What are Chinese people ? I don't know.
But it is nice that they are who they are, and look the way they look I like that . |
|
By:
Triads are extremely localised (and lets face it very small in number) and don't affect the general public. There's no religion or ideology behind anything they do, its just a bunch of criminals motivated by money.
There are criminals from every nation, what about the Romanian pick pocket gangs ? They're petty criminals, but do they pose a major threat to our society? NO, of course not. You can't compare a few pesky ants with hordes of elephants. |
|
By:
If where you where born was random I would expect that the people in China would be random.
no they are not random, they are surprisingly specific. |
|
By:
i fear the vast majority of chinese people in the UK do nut fully integrate into UK society
|
|
By:
The Chinese may end up having to take on Islam one day, after the rest of us have given up. The world needs them.
|
|
By:
The Chinese I know are great they have always been very friendly towards me and
never have any problems integrating with the people round here in Leeds. |
|
By:
could tommy Toes have been born in China ? certainly not !

I will have a Canadian lady of Hong Kong Chinese descent here this week BM. She is quite scathing of mainland Chinese. I'm sure she would be called a racist in this country.
|
|
By:
I don't get into racist gossip so wouldn't know who dislikes who,
always a divisive and unproductive pursuit. |
|
By:
The Chinese and the Japanese (in particular) don't take any sh.1.t from immigrants - they don't do self-loathing and virtue-signalling guilt for the sins of previous generations.

I don't get into racist gossip so wouldn't know who dislikes who, Lots of people don't like others, burying your head and hoping it will go away won't change that. |
|
By:
So talk about who you hate because they aren't identical to you try reinforce divisions
seems sensible to some but doesn't achieve anything positive for society. |
|
By:
Blindly waiting for Islam to take over this country will only be seen as positive by Islamics. Where are the positives for the current majority?
|
|
By:
You could have come up with the same arguments when Catholic Irish came to England big families only a matter of
time blah blah blah ..spread fear and loathing..The U.K. will never become a Muslim Country no matter how loud you shout. |

They double in number every 10 years. Did you ever do maths?

It doesn't work like you want it to there are lies damned lies and statistics.
|
|
By:
It's the Guardian who said they double every ten years, lying iyo?
|
|
By:
The Muslim population rose by about 75% in England & Wales between 2001 and 2011 (census years!). Source - The Independent. I am not sure what the rate of increase of the percentage of the population that is Muslim was but it will be easily available on the Census stats.

|
By:
I think the Guardian piece was 2015, the pace has probably quickened over the intervening 4 years.

Just because your car is accelerating doesn't mean it will reach 300 mph..

One of you more fanciful analogies, but, if you keep doubling the engine size it would.
|

By:
Just admit Saddo you don't like anyone dissimilar to yourself.You just can't accept we are all Human Beings.
|
|
By:
Diversion BM, you don't know who I like. Do you argue with the maths though? 4 million now = 64 million in 2057. Won't bother you, I know, but my daughter will still be around.
|
|
By:
But not are all 'civilised' human beings, there is a difference
|
|
By:
It is the fact that we are born and not invented that means we cannot be born anywhere, we must be born somewhere.
If we were in invented , then yes, we could be invented anywhere. Would I prefer to have been invented ? rather than born . I don't know, I think I may have preferred to have been invented . |
|
By:
Doesn't work like that due to changing rates of immigration.If the turmoil in the Middle East stopped
then numbers would dwindle. |
|
By:
What have you been smoking lfc1971?

By:
Tthe Pakistanis will go nowhere, BM. Each one can import a spouse, average 4 kids, each one can become 6 in a few years. Do you doubt this goes on?

Islam isn't a race. It's an ideology.
It's not a matter of disliking Islam because a lot of its followers look different, or because their ancestors were born elsewhere. It's a matter of disagreeing with an ideology. Otherwise you would have to argue that disliking Nazis is racist, because most of its followers were Germans and Austrians. Put it this way. If certain radical preachers were white and wore a swastika while demanding the destruction of all Jews, rather than being dark-skinned and wearing pyjamas, would they be allowed to continue? |
|
By:
Numbers would dwindle if there neighbouring safe mulsim brotherhood countries excepted these refugees, like Saudi Arabia, Morrocco Algeria Tunisia, UEA, Kuwait etc. Saudi Arabia has a fully equipped tented village outside Mecca all air conditioned tents that can cater for 100,000 people easily, which is only used during Ramadam month. Saudi Arabia hasn't excepted any Syrian refugees so far since conflict started.

By:
MAD would tell you black was white - a good solid defender of the true faith - or so we are told
a steady slow takeover is moving forward. |

By:
Saddo - where does the 4m come form. 2011 census shows 2.7m (2,8 including Scotland and NI). The Daily Mail reported in 2016 that ONS report that the number had reached 3m. I doubt the DM would underestimate.
|
|
By:
Germany will be a Muslim country within a couple of generations if present demographics continue.
|
|
By:
That would be a disaster.
|
|
By:
Islam is designed to spread around the world, stickyvicky. Pointless taking coals to Newcastle. The Suadi's, instead, build free mosques in any European country that takes em. They have offered loads of mosques to Germany, I don't know if they accepted the offer.
