I found this funny- not original though. Many years ago at school we had this debate about illegal immigration /asylum seeking. just about the open border time.
The 'for' speaker took to the floor and he did indeed mention all the previous people from various cultures coming here for a better life and going further back to all other 'invasions' (his word choice -not mine!) to the Romans and before. It was very interesting all his facts and figures he did do his research. However, he lost the debate.
And the reason was: Firstly, I pointed out the difference between asylum seeker and illegal immigrant.
Asylum seeker must report to the first port of call and claim asylum- they must produce evidence of their claims. The UK is an island therefore we are not the nearest safety port! An illegal immigrant is someone who will sneak in break the many laws as they can including slavery in all its forms.(Yes, I know some still apologise for the black African slaves-turn a blind eye to the recent ones eastern europe in particular.) The black market and dark
I pointed out about what really happened during these 'invasions' the rape, murder,pillaging, torture,enforcing their culture and religeon upon the indigenous population, insideously taking over towns and villages, enforcing their will-enslaving many. However, they came and conquered in a different way from the' open border' policy. This is a war we will not win- when we do now know who thry are or where they are. Due to human rights and other protections they lie under. If they wanted a job/house and security thy can do what Australians and Canadians and other people do- apply for job-find housing come here and settle. Learn language is very important.
Now, having witnessed the huge increase in large Asian communities becoming politically powerful and pushing out indigenous people who beome subservant, and compliant to their will and beliefs in some cases. read about the many changes in law to accommodate this 'invasion' buzz words like rascist- islamophobic etc Their political leaders now have powerful influence to incorporate their religous ideaology, they threaten. murder those who dare to stand against them. In Germany and this country the grooming for sexual abuse and rape reports-takes a back seat of importance to those who feel a rascist attack has occured. Can you see what I see.
That won a standing ovasion. P.S My Asian (Afghanistan)boyfirend, who was my opposition ,also stood to applaud. You see it is OK to tell it like it is without being a rascist or islamophobe.
