With mass immigration comes an influx of all kinds of everything, but I do feel that religious ideology can be problematic. People come to rely on them more in times of stress and disconnection and it's hard to think of a more stressful and disconnected time than settling in a new country. If you have the wrong voices speaking in your eye of 'guiding you' at a time like that I do worry where it can lead.

That's in part why I don't view immigration as a right for anyone. A country, it's people rather than it's government, should be able to settle on a system based on vacancies we need to fill, not cheap labour by the million. Even if we turn a blind eye to additional stresses on society, housing, care and infrastructure, who actually financially benefits from these extra hours being put in? Corporations? Most likely. The average Joe? Not a jot.

Thank you, Tom.

I've been to countries with vastly different levels of investment and I can't say the living conditions have ever bothered me that much. People just get on with life. In the UK immense wealth is already built in anyway, so it comes down to allocation of resources more than anything.

That's an additional Brexit factor, the idea sold by politicians for decades that increasing GDP means we're all much more prosperous now and living it up now. Tens of millions looked to their own lives and considered that wealth may well have been going into someones coffers, but it certainly wasn't theirs.

Huge respect for New Zealand their prime minister and people for their humanity and care for the victims and families from the horrible incident last Friday.
Their have been heroes confronting the gunman unarmed and all manner of examples of how a community can come together when it has to.
Janice Ardern I respect you. Runs a country, had her first child last year and confronted this horrible incident. What a leader!

Get a life sunshine, a genuine mistake, I am sure she wont mind but it seems to bother you./

I don't remember that ever being the case. Unless under 18 or by order of the court, suspects are always named.

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.
