Calais migrant crisis: UK police 'should help'

[minestrone]

As I understand there are 1 million Muslims in London, I also understand that it has been announced that the security services are monitoring a few thousand people in London on suspicion of being involved in terror activities. Once you take children out of the equation you are realistically looking at a 1 in 200 chance that an adult Muslim in London is suspected of being a terrorist. Yes, immigration is working out well isn't it.

The other is due to age. Migrants perform better because they are younger. On an age-related basis, many groups are more likely to be unemployed or have worse health. This means that, when they age in turn, they will be at least as great a burden as our own old people but will have contributed or saved even less to pay for it.

What makes you think that? Have you factored in the other side of the equation, that UK spend 0 on bring them to prime working age and 0 on education/training? I guess not.

Indeed. We should only give anyone a visa for a few years.

Good. Become a Catholic and do all the terrorist activities you want.

How many were born here? How many are converts? Are they just monitoring them for terror activities regarding an affiliation to Islam or are these people being monitored possibly not all Muslims but maybe ALF or Irish or Basque sympathisers? A bit of a generalisation there isn't it, that the people they're monitoring for terror activities are all immigrant Muslims...In other words you've written a post that could be construed to incite fear in that 1 in 200 Muslims could be a terrorist! Possibly 1 in 200 Moss Side inhabitants are drug dealers, possibly 1 in 200 show-business people are pedophiles, possibly 1 in 200 Ukip voters have a GCSE, possibly bollocks

I an not inciting fear in anything, I am saying that 1 in 200 is probably a reasonable guess for the odds that a Muslim adult in London is being monitored for terrorist activity.

Do your realise a lot of adult Muslims were born in the UK? Others came here as young children? And others converted?

In fact the adult Muslims who migrate to the UK are the least of our worries.

The converts like these ones and this one are of a greater concern.

Did you just say we should send them all home?

Before 20th century mass immigration how many Mulsims lived in the UK?

Before 20th century mass immigration how many Hindu lived in the UK? Or Jews, or any other religion?

The mentality of associating Muslims with terrorists is only making the problem worse. ETA, IRA and the like are Christians yet people tend to forget that.

In the course of history far more atrocities has been committed under the banner of Christianity than the Islam, it's just the wheel turning, so that the Muslims are the hot topic now days.

And again this is far off topic

Why would it be far off topic? until about 60 years ago there were probably only a few thousand Muslims in London, now because of uncontrolled immigration there is 1 million and we can reasonably estimate that 1 in 200 adults are being monitored for terrorist activity.

You would have to be a mental defective not to see how that was on topic.
