People that vote Europe and UK, do you follow the news and what are your opinions on the boatloads of illegal immigrants that arrive there every hour?

Your first mistake is taking what’s said on the news as truth.

I’m in the process of immigrating to the UK. The boats is a non issue - if you realize Sunak is just trying to distract from the real issues.

So what are you saying...or will this again devolve into obfuscation and semantics?

There are countless videos of these boats landing full of illegal immigrants.
YOU say don't believe the news.
You say the boats are NOT fake.

I would like to emigrate to any 1st world country BUT I enjoy the lawlessness of SA. I mean I'd probably be in jail for speeding and stuff in a first world country.

I think @Priapus needs this information, not me.

Your link affirms what I've been saying.

But it doesn't.

Tell me how you think 60k people a year has a material impact on a country with a population of 67m? That's 0.1%.

If you want to talk complete net migration and not just the small boat trafficking, then it's something like 500k per year.
However, most of these migrants are economically active and motivated to contribute. So, where's the problem in that?

The country must be doing something right if so many people want to move there.
 
If money was no object, I would get off this planet before it self-destructs... ;)

BTW, really enjoying this Mars colony simulation game... ;)
 
Jamaica or somewhere else in the Caribbean.
Or one of the 'African Islands' like Reunion or Mauritius.

Open a Surf Shop/Tiki Bar and be a proper disappointment to the family.

****ing hell. Do calm your chicken tits.

Never once did I say the boats are fake. You implied that’s what I was on about.

My post was aimed that the boats arriving are such a very small issue in the country that the MSM make it a bigger deal than it is - as does the government.

Where did I ever say or imply that?

Boatloads of immigrants arrive. That is the only fact that was mentioned and discussed.

I don't want to "talk net immigration" or count people on rubber dinghies...that was YOUR hysterical assumption.

These illegal immigrants must be doing something wrong, if so many people don't want them to move there.

Italy has even bigger problems:

Approx. 150 000 illegal immigrants landed by boat in Italy during 2023...double that of 2022.

Even the UN sees this as a big issue...but hey ho...

Only hysterical poster here is you mate. You seem to be unable to view posts in any kind of thread-wide context. It's called a conversation.... It has multiple participants.

Sounds very calm to me.

I was having a conversation about people saying "fake news" when boatloads of illegal immigrants were mentioned.

But then the virtue signalers and protectors of all mankind, sprang into action and saw an opportunity.

Laughable and totally clueless.
