@mylandsinorder @JessKaurr_ "Guru blessed us with weapons" yeah totally not the fact that Western law allows them to carry them, then these types of people bark like chihuahuas.
We are a bunch of morons.

@JessKaurr_ The lion has been a symbol of England for longer than your religion has existed.

Bruh no wonder why guru sehbaans blessed us with shasters (weapons) they knew, sheep’s will always fear from lions. I am Proud to be Sikh.

@maxtempers @Cheetoignocnito @NeilDotObrien Meanwhile now, all the very necessary vape shop and corner shop counter guys, who are filling dearly, desperately empty vacancies, just quietly disappear after their visa ends, and work underground without paying tax.
English
@maxtempers @Cheetoignocnito @NeilDotObrien This racket is seriously treason... there is principle here, regardless of people's opinion, in a government having been elected to reduce immigration and then destroying the borders.
If there were any serious democratic boundaries in this country it'd never have happened.

If there's no evidence people left the country after their visa expired, the ONS just *assumes* they left.
Via FOI I have found out that this assumption now accounts for a *fifth* of all non-EU emigration - and rising rapidly.
The govt must get a grip on who is in this country.

@BlueDwarf6 @BenBarryJones @AllisonPearson That is, if we evaluate from a secular perspective, then we don't even really know what Muhammad taught, much of it is thought to be a narrative built after his death.
What is more relevant is what the actual belief system entails, which is belief in this hadith collection.
English
@BlueDwarf6 @BenBarryJones @AllisonPearson The work you are referencing criticises hadith in general as unreliable, so you'd have to bin the entirety of Islamic history. It is known that secular scholars don't accept the Islamic narrative.
It is not about that. It is about what is accepted within the Islamic paradigm.
English
The "blasphemy belt" is real. West Yorkshire police ousted a hate crime advisor for "hate speech" because she defended the right to criticise Mohammed.
This email was sent by a serving police officer. It says calling Mohammed a paedophile for marrying a child is not "ok" 👇

@austinjamesigwe I also agree that there are concerns about indulging extreme rhetoric, and I do think mismanaging the situation only empowers those voices.
Because in the end the centre ground is who they have to win, and pushing open borders style policy will only make it more likely.
English
@austinjamesigwe @duchace So yes, it is more difficult to have a reasoned conversation about it now, because, after failure of government policy, many have started to think 'we need to shut it down completely', and those on the other side, in response, push back against them very hard.

@Henry_underage @Darius1296 @T1494178470877 @dedebaake If that's true, then it is our problem, we have to improve that.
But it should be sorted out, not band aided with immigration.
English
@Xavegriball @Darius1296 @T1494178470877 @dedebaake But you do know generally British work ethic is not great and these people come with skills too.
English
You people do not know what you are saying. The threshold for work visa sponsorship is almost 42k, how many entry level jobs are paying that and how is it cheaper to import people? Be serious
LEON 🇯🇲@SirLeonP
It’s a U.K. government and Employer failure. They picked the easy option of screwing young people over and importing people do the entry level jobs.
English
@Ayo_Black1 Because if nobody was doing it, they'd have to increase wages/better conditions to attract people, having nobody to fill their vacancies.
That is the general argument.
English
The problem I have with the low pay defense is that you cannot complain that immigrant are taking the jobs and then turn back and say you can’t do the said jobs.
The prison services pays an average of 36k per annum for entry roles and it’s still the same story. Same with children services.
Hospitality and retail pay shit pay and British nationals still do them. You can’t pick and choose when it’s convenient for you.
Lastly, immigrants have no access to public funds or social welfare and they still do said jobs.
Jas@symplylivinj
I get you, but they rather exploit migrants than increase pay. Considering how much people pay to be in them care homes. They deserve so much better pay wise. Immigrants do it because they want a better life here which is understandable but that’s what the government bank on. This tweet summed up everything I think on it x.com/_mr_nuel/statu…
English
@Ayo_Black1 @OneSodiqAlabii Precisely the response to Mahmood's visa reforms has been that after immigrants gain ILR they will stop doing care work as they can move to more appealing jobs.
English
@anyotherleader1 @BareLeft Do you think there's a conversation to be had about how mass migration can fuel the race to the bottom?
It can be used as a benefit, but it shouldn't be used as a profit making endeavour for big business.
English
@BareLeft Its also horseshit. Spain are bringing down their youth unemployment whilst welcoming migrant population, integrating them into the economy to fuel growth, building houses and focusing on workers over business. If you suggest doing that here you're treated as an unserious person
English
It's always fascinated me how these knuckle-dragging freaks can switch so effortlessly between "immigrants took the jobs" and "immigrants are all on benefits", without these contradictory statements ever colliding in their smooth, smooth brain.

@BareLeft Mass immigration.

@austinjamesigwe @MrLewisVuitton So, depending on the individual circumstance, he might well be entitled to say that the same kind of opportunity doesn't extend to another person.
English
@austinjamesigwe @MrLewisVuitton Surely it changes depending on what type of immigration is being examined though? You can't say that all of it is the same, that an international student from China is the same as a nurse from Nigeria, they carry different economic, ethical, legal weights etc.
English
lol please don’t turn this into a diaspora thing. Also there are entry jobs with sponsorship in certain sectors eg tech, finance etc
duchess carolyn🪬@duchace
I see this rhetoric a lot and mostly from people with West Indies flags. It feels very anti African. The difference between you and the people who’s migration you’re against is a few decades. It’s also very false. Entry level jobs don’t pay the minimum salary for sponsorships.
English
@MrLewisVuitton You have to be much clearer about what exactly you mean and what you are comparing, or saying, 'why shouldn't other immigrants have the same chance' doesn't help... because there might be reasons they are not like-for-like comparisons.
English
@duchace @MrLewisVuitton Just comparing totally different situations, how do you know the circumstances in which his family came here, or anyone else's?
Is an asylum seeker from Iraq in the 2000s the same as an international student from India in 2026? Do they carry the same legal/ethical obligations?
English
@MoyoisGod @MrLewisVuitton This is inherently a very capitalist and neoliberal viewpoint, that the only thing which matters is the bottom line and that costs should be cut as far as possible.
That's what it does, the attitude that people should endlessly hunt for a few extra dollars.
