@ukhomeoffice How will you prove that someone "abuses Britain's generosity"? Probably take them to court, provide them free legal concel, allow them to appeal to ECHR. Better solution: stop handouts to everyone who arrived illegaly (or, better yet, to everyone who arrived).

@PeterSchiff Property tax is more justified than income tax A person who owns property receives a service from the government: protection of that property.

Taxing non-income-producing property is wrong. Homeowners should not be forced to work to pay "rent" to the government for the privilege of living in their own homes. Property taxes should only be levied on income-producing property, as the income provides a means to pay the tax.

@ukhomeoffice For that you have to prove on a case-by-case basis that a person exploits the system, while the exploiter is provided legal counsel you pay for, and you are bound by the EHCR. Won't work You need to cut welfare aggressively. Instead you remove the 2 children welfare cap

British taxpayers cannot be expected to fund the lives of those who exploit the system or break our laws. Asylum support and accommodation will only be available to those who play by our rules.

@Civixplorer Lebanon must be a very strong country because of all that diversity, right? A great example for homogenous societies of what can be achieved by becoming diverse.

@wil_da_beast630 Those are the right sort of refugees: 1. Really persecuted 2. Low crime rate 3. Culturally similar, would integrate very easily 4. Unlikely to become a burden on welfare 5. Unlikely to hate the host country 6. Wouldn't do terror attacks against host country Did I miss something?

@Kombo_Ren @HKX37 1. Border is closed on the Israeli side. Jordan isn't making any special efforts. 2. Any country that has air defense would shoot missiles flying uninvited through their territory 3. Yes. 'sit idly'=do not attack Israel. The same thing that Israel demands from Lebannon

@Baron__Alex @HKX37 Closing of borders of the West Bank to enforce israel's denial of the right of return. Shoot down missiles aimed at israel. Sit idly by as israel continues its colonial project in the West Bank, depleting Palestinian statehood. & so much more!

@Parsonalsecret UAE, Qatar, and partially Israel solve labor shortage by temporary workers. The 'temporary' is crucial. They cannot gain permanent residency, they come only from countries that take back deportees, and they are deported for visa overstays or for doing crime.

@Kombo_Ren @HKX37 They're not good reasons to invade and annex Jordan. 🍉s think Israel invades based on those claims, yet both apply to Jordan and almost no Israeli supports a war to annex Jordan.

This is a profoundly unsettling survey. Getting on for three-quarters of black Britons back the idea of taxpayers money going abroad to nations which insist they were set back by slavery. But less than a fifth of white Britons share that opinion. Wildly irreconcilable worldviews.

With Reform UK pledging to deny new visas to people from countries seeking slavery reparations from Britain, our study found the public are opposed to paying reparations - although ethnic minority adults are not Black adults: 71% support Ethnic minority adults: 50% All adults: 24% White adults: 19% Results link in replies

@DerekPederson3 The Ottoman Empire, Russia, Brazil and China had a huge population of slaves/serfs in the beginning of the 19th century. If slavery made countries rich they'd be extremely wealthy

I have a hard time understanding the claim that slavery is what generated American wealth. Everyone knows the South is poorer than the North. Is the claim that if not for slavery this correlation would be even *more* negative? What would be the mechanism for that?

@tanpukunokami It's justified. Owning property means one receives service of courts, police and army to protect the property. They don't work for free. True, gov wastes tons of money without reason, but that's an argument against all taxes.

@johnredwood While I'm sure much of it is due to waste, correuption and DEI in the UK, Israel forces all Jewish men to serve 3 years almost for free. I think that if Israel paid at least minimum wage to all conscripts, the defense budget would be larger that UK's

Israel has more military in uniform, an Iron Dome protection, more than six times as many tanks and twice as many combat aircraft than the UK for a smaller budget. Why can’t the UK government get more for our defence money?

@RichardHanania It's perfectly reasonable for a democratic society to give freedom to its members, while requiring that newcomers integrate.

This is a key point. Conservatives are cultural outliers. Even in red states, abortion referendums lose. Why don't pro-lifers need to "assimilate"? At least US Muslims don't force others to live by their religious beliefs. The only plausible political value is liberalism.
Shadi Hamid@shadihamid

Most American Muslims aren't immigrants. They're born and raised here. And they're not that different from the Republican base when it comes to questions of homosexuality, gender, and family. We don't ask Republicans to "assimilate" into American liberal culture. 1/

@shadihamid Regarding the word 'should'. The American citizens decide what should be done in their country. It is not in their interest to have a non integrating community in their country. Therefore yes - if you are in America you should converge with the cultural mainstream.

Should a minority community's right to be in America depend on their willingness to converge with the cultural mainstream? No, it shouldn't depend on that. It shouldn't depend on anything. We're all Americans, after all.

@MatrixMysteries "I just want a better life for my children" shouldn't be a sufficient reason to enter. At the very least, require an understanding of why life is better in the USA than in her country of origin. Oh, and "its because u bombed/colonized/exploited my country" = instant deportation

“I came here for the money. I don’t even like this country." “We didn’t come for your culture or your values. We came to make money — I don't owe this country a damn thing.” She says America isn’t better than Mexico — just a place where she can earn more.
