#1 I say let the Romanians and Bulgarians in, and deport an equal number of problem-causing Moslems.

#2 Yep, Ee-lib, that's the logical thing to do but Britannia has lost it senses by trying to appease the unappeaseable.

#3 Used to be too Jewish. Now it's too Christian.

#4 That, and the Eastern Europeans work hard and don't immediately join unions demanding 35 hr workweeks etc.

We have a lot of construction and building maintenance going on where I work. Most of the crew are Eastern Europeans. They come every day. They work while on the job. They are usually skilled when they arrive.

It's what my Ukrainian grandparents did a century ago, too. And yeah, many go to church. Even more know exactly what the far left does to a country when it's in power.

#5 There are also better and adaptable Asian immigrants from SE Asia than just ME muzzies. Somehow Britain has always had that soft spot for Pakis.

#6 Can't dilute the potential power the Muslim immigrants have. That would be doubleplusungood.

We should invite them to cross the pond. Eastern European immigrants are just fine with me (of course, I'm biased! :P )

#7 They just want to do the jobs that the Brits and Pakis don't want to do.

#8 Yup, bring 'em to America. They can join our other good immigrants from Mexico, Honduras, Haiti and Nigeria. We'll all manage to get along, and what us zoom ahead in the world.

#9 Yes, come on over! We have free emergency rooms clinics and health care. Contemplating child birth, no problem, best obstetrics in the world, and free as well! Green cards, blue cards, no card? - no worries mate. We also have multi-ling phones, signs, Social Security, job preferences, business loans, affirmative action, welfare, food stamps, discounted housing, income tax relief. In fact, don't even bother filing taxes if you can't read the forms or find them confusing. Wanna quietly send your tax-free dollars out of the country and back home home? No problems, it's quite simple. The IRS and INS are both clueless, you'll love it here.

#11 The Eastern Europeans who are working in the construction trades at my place are here legally. I'm pretty sure I can guarantee that. ;-)

Thank you for the refreshing Orwell reference, Swamp Blondie. As I told my friend on New Year's eve of 1984;

Orwell that ends well.
