Originally posted by Paddy View PostNot at all. Emigration should be controlled and it must be reciprocal. It’s not right to get people who have lived in the UK for 15 years to go home, nor is it right to hit them over the head with a plank of wood.
This is how I see the argument from the remainers:
1. The UK should have reciprocal migration policies with other countries - those within the EU. This of course means that we still have border controls with other countries (most of them). Apparently Brexiteers are racists because we also believe in border controls albeit with different rules to remainers. Which ever way you turn it both groups (remainers and brexiteers) want border controls only our (brexiteer) version is racist whilst theirs (which discriminates against 80 of the countries of the world ) is not.
I am struggling to see the logic on this one.
If the racist argument was to have any integrity at all it would have to mean that the UK borders are open to everyone. I doubt the little turds in the remain camp would want to try and argue that one.Last edited by DodgyAgent; 29 October 2016, 16:29.

Or is it just easier for you to smear the argument by smearing the people rather than have to engage intellect to argue the point?Originally posted by vetran View Postoh yes opposing uncontrolled immigration is racist. Just like slinging tulip is typical bremoaner.

And it is certainly typical in my experience when talking to Brexiters. Their argument always ends up about racism and emigration. Even the Asians I have spoken to wanted Brexit to stop Europeans (particularly Polish) coming to the UK.

Two videos of Spaniards being violently assaulted in separate incidents in the UK have gone viral in Spain, fuelling speculation the attacks could be linked to Brexit.Last edited by Paddy; 29 October 2016, 16:00.

Scooty may be desperate but at least he bothered to post something to support his whinging.
I might suggest if name calling is your best defence your argument is probably already lost.

Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostMorrissey is right - Brexit really is magnificent | Coffee House
This isn’t the first time Morrissey has praised Brexit and slammed those who libel Leavers. In August, he said he was shocked by the flat-out refusal of much of the media ‘to be fair enough to accept the final decision of the people’ simply because ‘this decision does not suit the establishment’. He railed against the BBC for ‘persistently smear[ing] people who voted Leave’, who are now largely presented as ‘irresponsible, drunken racists’. He’s not wrong. Since Brexit Day, since that glorious moment when 17.4m Brits voted against an institution that has plunged the Greek working classes into poverty, imposed unelected technocratic rule on Italy, and horribly insulted the plebs of France, Holland and Ireland after they dared to vote against its treaties — and they call this institution progressive! — it’s been open season on Leavers. They’re being blamed for everything from economic chaos (where?) to a supposed rise in hatred to shortages of Marmite. Enough. Brexiteers, it’s time to stand up to these barbs and slurs, to this demosphobia, and say: ‘Brexit was magnificent.’
