Spain & France don't seem to be taking in an appropriate number of migrants do they?
Especially given the relative landmasses...
Perhaps in 2015, other countries were actually taking their fair share to balance up the numbers from the past?

That graphic is very misleading. Had it been over the last 30-40 years it may have been more relevant.

Originally posted by tazdevil View PostIn my experience the UK is the most tolerant nation of others. There are cretins in any nation who hate outsiders but fewer of them here than elsewhere. When I lived in Rotterdam in the late 70's I was told to go home by some woman who didn't like having a foreign neighbour taking their jobs. I've experience plenty of shruggy shoulders in France and many other nations are tolerant only if you're a visitor. In the USA I've been given the crap table in restaurants just because I'm not one of them. The best reception for foreigners is in English speaking countries and especially the commonwealth nations

Actually reading this thread and some of the responses prove that the UK is becoming more and more of a racist environment
