It had nothing to do with the rags; it was us, the people who chose. All gullible voters I guess?

An expanding retired population with commensurate increasing need for tax funded services but a diminishing working population to provide the tax money. Soem of this is resolved by automation. Not enough. You voted against the workforce being refreshed by literate Europeans. So how-to you propose the NHS and state pension will be funded without immigration? I am not against you on this. Climate change and a rise in sea level will trigger mass global population movements. Thus where will Bagladeshi folk go if part of the fertile Ganges Delta falls under salt water?

We don't know how much automation will cover an aging population. It Depends upon the advance of technology and what the elites want society to be. The big issue about immigration....if we ignore all the ethnic stuff I tackled earlier in the thread.....is the simple fact that it's a ponzi scheme....which I'm sure you realise as well. Immigrants get old too....you can't keep importing ever greater numbers of young foreigners European or otherwise because it's unsustainable....they all want pensions too. The answer to this was native birth rates allied with automation....and birth rates decades ago....some countries outside the western sphere of influence have long since woken up to this....birth rates are the key.....but not in the west because they have different goals. The other temporary measure is guest worker systems that don't allow naturalization and where the time limits are actually enforced...Japan has taken this route. Though in Japan...because they gave a feck... you can actually tell who isn't Japanese most of the time. I could go on about the rot social liberalism and certain aspects of feminism have closed doors for western societies but many books have been written on it and it makes no difference.....the current moves in the direction big money wishes to flow. Those who think these things forward realise that the constant kicking of the can down the road doesn't end in new highways but rather dead ends. Or we could just listen to the hippies and those waffling distractions on utopian ideas that never worked. Edited by Stirlingsays (11 Feb 2022 10.19pm) 'Who are you and how did you get in here?

It obviously didn't bother you that much did it......and apparently we have the fastest recovering economy in the EU. Edited by Stirlingsays (11 Feb 2022 10.40pm) I picked out that statistic from the news yesterday. "Fastest recovering". Measured over what time frame? And when the UK was one of the worst impacted, then it's a lot easier to see a massive growth (statistically), however small. And while I'm very happy for the economy, inflation is really high, coupled with petrol prices and gas and falling/static wages in many sectors.(if indeed, you were lucky enough to hold on to your job). And do the figures for the economy also take into account the lessened burden of pensions, due to all those old people dying of covid. **Not having a pop at stirling, but am critiquing how statistics can be manipulated to suit most agendas.

Wisbech - his sleaze wasn't personal - we didn't learn of that until 2002 and it was before he was PM. Read about the facts - cash for questions, ministerial conduct under his leadership with affairs and a lot more going on. to come out with this crap for no reason while Boris is on foreign soil is unacceptable but John Major is a spineless man who just wants Boris gone - for the wrong reasons.
