Its worst than the eighties in liverpool and manchester. im from liverpool and have been unemployed for over 3 years. i spend most my time volunteering and in self education in libraries and museums. its hard because i need a job to save to get to london to break into film there. im actually planning on going on the ships. its a pity i cant find work in my own area. the problem is immigration. in 2001 the uk government said there would be max 13000 immigrants from european states entering britain per year. of course that was a massively off estimate calculation. anyway since then the average of european including polish people entering is just short of 800,000 per year. it goes without saying that these people have had a huge effect on the economy. the nhs is overly strained and the schools are overly populated. in 2001 the percentage of school children from a minority group was less than 5 % it now stands at just under 19%. the office of national statistics says that 1 in every 4 babies born in the uk since 2004 are the offspring of non british born parents. this statistic is one that says that we need to take control of our borders. although i would rather be the nation that allowed people to use our facilities we cannot allow people to take the biscuit out of our systems. for example: we have all heard how heavily pregnant women from abroad including the united states come to the uk to give birth fo free. or to have an operation for free. another thing is homes. at present 364 homes are needed to be filled by immigrants per day (based on statistic at the ons). these are council homes. the average british person will wait up to 4 weeks to get a reply to their application. where as homes will be found for immigrants within 5 working days. with 2.7 m people unemployed in the uk. its not a question of should it is a question of must. we need a new immigration system or a new political system. we sould close our borders for the time being and only allow people seeking asylum to enter. ----------------------------------- ----------------------------------- ----------------------- to all those who are going to call me 'ignorant' or 'uneducated'. i have done the research and found the information from a number of sources. www.bbc.co.uk www.dailymail.co.uk www.reuters.com www.statistics.gov.uk/ if you feel aggrieved. i suggest you take up your arguments with them. ----------------------------------- ----------------------------------- ------- also to those who wish to compare me with the bnp. nothing i have wrote is racist or incites racial hatred. i despise racism and would not wish for you to place me in the same basket as the bnp.

From your fine prose and the way you have marshalled and presented your arguments, it is obvious that you have not wasted your time in the libraries and museums. Anyone venturing to call you "uneducated" had better write like an angel. It is a great shame that you have not been able to find any job suitable for a person of your calibre and determination. As for the substantive case you make, it is true, and this has been proven by cabinet notes and papers released under the freedom of information act, that previous and present governments have failed to act properly and decisively on the issue of immigration and the allocation of resources for them. It is an indication of the low level of debate and the cowardice of our politicians that any attempts to raise the issues have attracted abuse and name-calling rather than serious discussion and action. Personally, I don't know what can be done, especially now that the horses have firmly bolted and the stable is filled with people determined to dismantle our cultural heritage and way of life built on Christian and western humanism. It would be unthinkable for us to resort to the kind of "solution" adopted by the National Socialist Party in Germany towards the latter period of their history. However, the earlier expediency of selective repatriation (those firmly opposed to our way of life) might offer a more acceptable solution. That will mean the UK (or at least England) will have to leave the EU since the EU with its insane and untenable policies on open borders would never countenance any attempts to put one's established citizens over any in-comers. It may also mean that the citizens shift their support from the failed mainstream parties to those which are determined to act decisively on this issue. A certain party comes to mind, but unfortunately its name has become a byword and term of abuse. So, what is really left? One hopes that one of the main parties will come up with some real action (not promises) on this front and we can all support it. It is time to call a halt to the plundering of our resources and the dismantling of our western Christian heritage. It is also time for our people to realise what they are losing irretrievably when they turn their backs on the faith and wisdom of their fathers and to start supporting those people and institutions that are the bearers and preserver of their heritage. There is such a thing as cultural extinction. When our skylines are filled with minarets and stupas and temples, then it will be too late. I hope you do save up enough to go to London and there, perhaps, work for real change.

My sil is on maternity leave and has taken it upon herself to keep planning these huge events for my in-laws. like a $300 meal for their anniversary, for an example. we finally settled on a $40 gift for them, and that was it. now, we have two kids. a mortgage, and we're saving to buy a new house and have my husband finish his college, starting this summer. we've explained to her multiple times that we just can't afford that luxury at this time. now for mother's day she's wanting us all to trek down to a nice restaurant (3 young kids in tow), wait for an hour and spend $22/person on a average meal. oh, and she wants us to pay for their parents. that's nice - but to me that's not a nice mother's day for me. i asked her why it had to be this restaurant and not one that was more budget friendly or even have the men-folk cook for us, and she threw a fit saying that it was her favorite restaurant. doesn't sound like a 33-year old, does she? we've spoken to her several times about this, but she just never takes the hint. we've even blantly told her that we cannot afford this meal or any meal that costs more than $12/person. if she wants to splurge and pay for the part we can't budget, she can. i understand that honoring her mother is important too, but is it really wrong that i, as a mother, want to feel honored and respected as well?!

You are right, she is wrong. She should understand you are financially responsible. She has problems and sounds like a pouty, whiny little baby.

Pretty sure the first 17 of these are true. Actually, I think they are all "supposed" to be true, but I take exception to a couple. I know from over 20 years of working in hospitals in a managerial capacity that they don't make money selling umbilical cords ! Also, Coca-Cola was never green! http://www.snopes.com/cokelore/green.asp LOL! Fun questions, though!
