S.O.S. (Streets of Surrender)
Every man has two cities he needs to be
The one he can touch
And the one he can’t see
The one where a stranger’s a friend
Every man has got one city of liberty
For me it’s Paris, I love it
Every time I get lost down these ancient streets I find myself again
You’re free, baby, baby
Free now and forever
It’s Christmas time
You can decide to forget or to remember
You’re free, baby, baby
I didn’t come down here to fight ya
I came down these streets of love and pride to surrender
The streets of surrender
I heard a farfetched story
That nobody seems to know
I think it was about that stranger
It was youth, it was love and it was danger
It was winter with that warm it gets before the snow
It chilled my soul
Everybody’s crying about some kid
That they found lying on a beach
Born in a manger
You’re free, baby, baby
Free now and forever
It’s Christmas time
You can decide to forget or to remember
You’re free, baby, baby
I didn’t come down here to fight ya
I came down these streets of love and pride to surrender
The streets of surrender
Every man has two cities he needs to be
The one he can touch
And the one he can’t see
The one where a stranger’s a friend
Every man has got one city of liberty

You’re free, baby, baby
Free now and forever

Who wrote this drivel.
I presume its written by an illiterate immigrant who doesn't watch the news. Paris is a city under siege its circled by people who hate the city and its way of life. It has a small chance now with Marine Le Pen winning the French regional elections,they might fight back although history tells us the French are a craven lot. |

There is no them. Only us.
We get to carry each other. Carry each other. You ain't no human being, bruv! |

Its embarrassing.
We know you are incapable of thinking on your feet but this first putting up some migrants illiterate poem followed by a string of meaningless catchphrases is the nadir. Will the follow be a serious of cartoons. Tis no wonder you have a soft spot for the harmless Rocketfingers |

What a shower,they have the one chance to justify their salary and they know it,run them out of the country.

lobby groups like this should be illegal.
You have to laugh at Sutherland. Parasite isn't the word. |
|
By:
It was some chuckle listening to Sutherland harping on about migrants high skill sets....
Some of them barely able to string an english sentence together. Happy to throw stones whenever they dont get what they demand. What about giving low income families in Ireland the opportunity to go to college. The grant system in Ireland is massively abused and unfit for purpose. Happy to allow allow nurses and doctors to be trained by 3rd world countries and then thieve them under the guise of immigration |

By:
what % of our health service would be staffed by these skilled immigrants out of interest?
|
|
By:
What about exporting our own parasites to even things up?
|
|
By:
That's the point they are our parasites.
If one of my children turns out a wrong one you deal with it,you make reparations you bale them out,that doesn't mean I welcome some other families wrong one and bale him out. |

By:
You do, it seems, as long as he happens to hold the same passport.

By:
You are being deliberately obtuse,I'm just making the analogy between your family and your country.
Every nation has its share of ne'er do wells that's the way it is and we have some duty towards them,that doesn't extend to the whole world. Especially when the ne'er do wells they want to import hate us,hate our culture and want to conquer us. |

The problem in this country is that we spend millions subsidising 3rd level education and once they graduate, let other countries enjoy the fruit of our labour. We then replace them with the culls and eejits from other countries who have no interest in working.
It is ridiculous to export our best and brightest to other countries whilst replacing them with lazy, feckless layabouts. Our treatment of junior doctors is scandalous. Look at the fools we have replaced them with, some of them wouldn't know their arse from their elbow, let alone perform life-saving surgery. |

Always remember a conversation with a doctor in Tottenham in the 70s, He'd popped in for a drink after work , he had worked his socks off for 7 years studying , finally qualified and got started in the Prince of Wales hospital in Tottenham were he really enjoyed working, that week he had found out that the doctor in charge of him from India, had LESS qualifications than him .

By:
yes, a conversation that would stay with you for 35 years. SHOCKING. Thanks for sharing.

AH the need to be loved one appears ,why am I not surprised .

By:
An Indian in CHARGE. Nope, sorry, still can't get my head around it.
What were they thinking? |
|
By:
I think you will find that wonkys "doc" was in fact in college for 7 years and eventually scraped his degree which should have taken 4 years, by which time he was a raving alcoholic, hence his appearance in the boozer with wonks. Obviously the chap had a hatred for any non- whites, and shared such with the little Paddy alongside him up on a high stool.

So, Donald Trump has advocated banning Muslims from America.
If he gets in, perhaps he will offer Borneo a a position as his Chief of Staff. It would be a meeting of two great minds. [ This image is no longer available. ] |

You think it won't affect you but it will.
Maybe you are better off being unaware of what's happening around you,better off leading a life that just revolves around sport but you have to grow up at some stage. |

The great mind behind Trump is the brilliant Ann Coulter,he has taken his ideas from her book Adios America.
Coulter is a member of a group as brave as jump jockeys as no one gets more threats,gets more vitriol than right wing women. Its also great to see Muslims losing their temper because they can't physically chastise this articulate brave intelligent woman. |
