They're washing something... and it ain't hair. i'm not too sure many of the Mets finest were getting their hair washed/cut either, let alone paying. They may however have been having a party as I did see lots of flashing blue lights.

Is bad town planning down to those pesky foreigners? The population is only increasing due to immigration. Therefore the need for thousands of new houses is largely due to that. It's not difficult.

You stated that things like doctors and schools seemed to come much later than houses built. I said it was bad town planning. you've turned it into another too many immigrants argument.

FFS There would be no issue without mass migration. It is pointless debating with people who just want to deny reality to uphold some loopy political ideology.

It's true that some of the problems you're talking about would not be as bad without mass migration. *But* they could have been significantly reduced with better planning and infrastructure development running in parallel with the migration. Which did increase tax revenues after all.

Chinese organised crime in the UK is big into money laundering - due to links to far eastern banking and Hong Kong. All those cash mules and gangsters have to have a 'legitimate' source of income. Also they're quite handy if you're into people smuggling, for providing 'work permits' etc. Getting actual beauty treatment is as tricky as getting a therapeutic massage.

That's why the plug sockets are halfway up the f***ing walls. "Affordable homes" is one of the stupidest f***ing phrases ever, they cost what they cost and everyone can afford one with a job and a mortgage. Maybe not the exact one you want, but that's not the point when it's a "need". Great! Please show me where I can buy somewhere to live and remain within 90 minutes travel of the 50k City job I'd like to keep to pay the mortgage. I have 10k savings too. Oh, I have two kids as well so a 1 bedroom studio flat is out of the question, as is a term longer than 25 years. I'm quite excited at the prospect of being able to buy a home in the Greater London I've spent my life in. Your assertion that anyone with a job can get a mortgage and buy somewhere to live is one of the most ridiculous things I've seen on the Internet in years. Hopefully you were just on a wind up!

Which did increase tax revenues after all. All very well but at what point does it stop? Answer. It won't. It can only increase unless we enforce much tougher restrictions. A break from EU regulations and a reduction in numbers from Africa and Asia is required.
