    During the incident, the RNLI said it also helped to ensure the safety of anti-migrant protesters who had entered the sea off Portsmouth.

    Shouldn’t have bothered. If they don’t want lifeboat services, they shouldn’t get in to situations where they need them.

      Are you really dense enough to believe that this country’s problems are migrants’ fault, and not the privatisation of everything, and the inevitable myriad tax loopholes/“strategies” exploited by the companies that run the aforementioned everything?

      Before you reply, consider how much the toad lookalike figurehead of the right wing party (that’s up to their ears in dodgy grifting before they even have any power) has invested in certain US based “private healthcare providers”. He’s not even sly about it, his full throated calls for the UK healthcare system to resemble the US model leave no room for misconstruing his intentions.

      This is basic level stuff, but so many allow themselves to be led along by their prejudices, which history has shown, leads nowhere good.

          The constant news cycle of migrant crime has helped people like me make up my mind.

          You’re nearly there.

          Who decided to run the constant news cycle cherry picking?
          Wonder what they get out of it?

              So if they’re not angels, what are they? Do you think they behaved the same way in their previous country? What do you think motivates them?

              Have you considered that the same people paying Farage to get you to parrot “stop the boats” might also pay migrants to go into other countries and destabilise them? And you do it for free… you’re such a mug.

                  Oh wow, I’m impressed by your in depth knowledge of teenage girls and life in Afghanistan. I should have known you were an expert and everything you’ve said is based on experience and fact.

                  How many of these Afghani people you’re complaining about are the translators and soldiers who fought against the Taliban, which is why they’ve ended up here?

                  They’re sexually repressed, but also irrepresable rapists that stick their dicks in anything and fled that to the UK to sponge off of the welfare state while stealing all the jobs and houses?

          Middle school? That’s not even a thing that exists in the UK.

          Who is paying you to spread this racist horseshit?

            There are c.150 in England, down from a peak of 2,000 in the 80s. They were more popular in some authorities than others.
