Said to be about 10 times what Starmer claimed, despite some Treasury jiggery-pokery which uses a bizarre formula whereby future spending is given a lower value than present spending (the "Social. Time Preference Rate").

I think you'll find that quite a few Labour led councils do indeed offer this "incentives" and are not isolated incidents . IMO there's no need to try and make this lot look bad ,they're doing a splendid job themselves .


I’m not on about them making Labour look bad, just them stirring up hate.

Do you know which councils over those things as standard?

I’m not trying to justify it, it’s more we need to sort the immigration issue so we need to focus on the important things and make points in good faith.

It’s stories like these that lead the bad actors to turn up at the peaceful protests and cause havoc.

Reform controlled councils aren't exactly covering themselves in glory. They paralysed a Kent council. And have done similar elsewhere

A council or many what is it to be ?

The biggest catastrophe of a council is labour led .

There's hell of a lot of truth in what you say, the UK is the laughing stock of the world, even the migrants that we help are laughing.


They are probably Kurds or Arabs from Iraq. About 20 years ago the British Army alongside US army went to their country and blew up all the civil amenities like oil and gas and water and electricity suppliers over about 4 years.

We then said oops we were wrong there is no Weapon of mass destruction here like the Isrealis told us. Sorry about that. USA and Israel have been destabilising unfriendly state s ever since at the behest of some pretty unpleasant Settlers in you know where.

They gave finally got around to UK who signed up to excessively liberal humans right rules present in Europe which suits USA and Israeli people just fine.

The guys laughing were saying "Why did you wreck my home?". It is clear to me Europe absorbed the Middle easterners and they did not pass on the UK. Then Brexit happened and UK is still signed up to out of date liberal asylum laws.

That argument is an absolute nonsense argument. People generally don’t flee to those regimes and countries who are trying to attack, persecute or destroy them.

We didn’t see millions of Jews desperately trying to break into Nazi germany.

Similarly we didn’t see 13th century women flooding eastwards because they wanted some more of that hot Mongolian action.

None of them believes UK people are hostile to them but the British army was for sure. I recall Hillary Benn demanding the RAF joined in the bombing of northern Syria. The people's they bombed are now cutting my hair.

USA Isreal in particular have destabilised several Arab states in sequence. Iran next.. Turkiye took 4m.Millions in Italy Germany and Greece.

UK was kept out of the firing line in EU. Not any more. Farage wanted to create an Anglo Asian economic powerhouse. Welcome to Brexit.


I do not worry too much about Chagos. UK stole Diego Garcia in the first place. International law could have forced us out but we have come to an agreement . The number are larged but shared by others and there is a lot of accounting mumbo jumbo. A quoted simple figure means nothing.

UK has plenty of accountants. We have been ripping off the South for centuries..

The bits about driving lessons, martial arts, mobile phones and football tickets.

There are no direct government provisions for these. There may be isolated incidents where community groups and/or charities may provide these things, but publications like The Mail make it look like government schemes to stir up hate.


There have been some exceptions regarding phones as the Home Office did hand out at least 14,000 handsets to assist with screening interviews around 2021-22.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/09/23/channel-migrants-asked-just-four-scr

Currently some migrant charities and legal firms provide mobile phones to maintain contact with persons making asylum claims or appeals.

The other discounts/free entitlements mostly come from certain Councils.

The Scottish Government has funded free bus travel for asylum seekers and the Welsh Government funds some discretionary help with accommodation etc.
