Reply to: Where are all the immigrants?

[vetran]

By my inference is you should look at the OP where it is suggested that towns with Labour MPs have more foreigners alluding to a left wing conspiracy to overrun the indigenous population but that's to be expected by righties where everything that doesn't conform to their narrow bigoted mindset is a left wing conspiracy

yeah

Do the immigrants choose to live in the crappiest places, or do they become the crappiest places do you think?

If it's the latter, that doesn't imply it's because their foreigners... that kind of rapid population growth is a strain.

Around here it was crap for a while but things a really becoming quite positive. Lots of new restaurants and businesses moving it. Some tidying to do and got to get parking sorted..as there is now. The area just wasn't designed for each house to have three cars.

Apart from genuine asylum seekers, why would any other immigrants need to be "settled" anywhere? Surely we would only be accepting immigrants that can support themselves, and therefore they choose where to live?

Well, fake asylum seekers may also get settled somewhere while their status is sorted out.

But fair enough - I was harking back to the times before you could get a plumber, when the great immigration crisis was asylum seekers.

Neither. I think they are settled in the crappiest places.

They is there!

I wonder what the big swathe of red is in the Bristol Channel - Vietnamese boat people queuing up to get into Avonmouth?

Because I never said it was bigoted

Fair enough but why is it crap when it appears to be largely true?

[darmstadt]

I did say I can't be bothered to look :P but it would be a reasonable anomaly (if it is) where Boston = close proximity to East Anglia and it's farming gangs.

You didn't answer the important question though, Why is it bigoted to confirm that Labour's immigration for votes policies worked?

What does my first post show? Boston....

I can't be bothered to look but can you find a tory or lib dem constituency with the same demographics?

Why is it bigoted to investigate or even confirm that Labour's immigration for votes policies actually worked? And before you answer, remember that Labour admitted their policies recently, even after denying them for years.

So by inference, can I assume that you think it's fine to become a minority in your own town?
