I don't think they're bastards for it.
We got 'nuff immigrants over here. But one that comes from Portugal is far more tolerable than any of the current brand of shitstains we have rolling in from the Middle East.
By 'bastards' I wasn't referring to people who simply say 'immigration is too high', I was referring to the BNP/National Front mentality. Frankly, I'd be half-tempted to deport those groups and replace them with an equal number of genuinely desperate Syrian refugees. Export our 'shitstains'. Also, the idea of an English parliament is very tempting for me so the EDL are just plain embarrassing!
So to clarify; I was saying all countries have groups of racist, xenophobic morons and although I don't support them I wouldn't put groups like UKIP in that category.
P.S Dystopia, I didn't realise I'd be derailing your thread just by typing the word 'bastards', sorry!
