You're making this weird and naive assumption that immigrants are this one large homogeneous blob of people. It should be fairly obvious that not all immigrants behave as well as the slavs.

Slavs are the ones they're trying to get rid of, having moved on from the venerable tradition of hating the Irish. Every time a Polski sklep opens where the old Thistle&oval office used to be, every time a Latvian plumber clears the chip fat out of your drain, every time a Lithuanian woman smiles at you when handing you your change a bulldog dies.

Lol so they just had some interviews with cornish fishermen (who get a shitload of EU money and support) and most of them were like yeah we like the money but we're voting leave because the EU fishing quota makes us throw some fish back. God forbid theres some fishing regulation to stop you overfishing and having nothing to catch, gently caress

But on the other side you have these massive multinationals saying oh well we'll stop trading in Britain if we leave the EU. Yeah right.

Basically what the choice to leave or not leave should be an economic and legal argument but instead has been whether you like or dislike browns and foreigners coming to the uk and whether or not they are a drain and faaaarrrrt

All joking aside, if politicians really wanted to get their way 1 person probably wouldn't be a big loss. Same with any collateral damage. I mean, we have enough historical and recent examples of wealthy/politically powerful people doing nasty stuff to get their way.

Although this sounds more like an unstable man clinging to ideology that did this politically motivated crime because the opportunity presented itself.

Peep this:

It's actually a (retardedly flawed) economic and legal argument on the Remain side and more of a (irrelevant and offensive) browns and foreigners argument on the Exit side and they're both talking past each other almost completely.

To be fair, those were different times and the world worked quite differently in each, even compared to each other let alone the 21st century.

This debate seems pretty acrimonious but, in all honesty, nothing will probably happen and the UK will remain in the EU.

To be fair, for a good chunk of his Charles' reign the first act of supremacy was still in place in England. Towards the very end of his reign it would've been repealed by Mary.

Baltic slavs are almost white western europeans in terms of ethnicity and culture. I have a hard time believing most Brits would find them unfit for English society. The main threat is clearly coming from Turkey and that's where the leave campaign is focusing their attention.

Latvians and Lithuanians are Balts though, not Slavs. Although the average brexiteer probably doesn't care.

"irrelevant and offensive" huh?

Its our future you retarded troll. Pakis, Muslims and those loving Romanian Gypsies breed like loving rats and we are going to be a minority in our OWN country if we dont stop this.

Places like Handsworth & inner Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Bradford, large areas of London etc are 97%-98% non-white. We British people have been passively and semi-democratically ethnically cleansed. People refer to the places as "the occupied territories", it's a term Palestinians use but this is a term English people are using about our own cities.

But the problem is what most people do about these changes is to ignore them, to moan about them privately amongst their friends, to swear at the television, to think something should be done but they wont do anything their selves and to sit on their hands and wonder when it will all end.

But deep down their is a radical disquiet in our people about these radical and manifest changes, they look around and think "whats it gonna be like in 5 years, 10 years, 20 years time" when we have to play the minority game and anyone makes the slightest criticism of us and we have to stick our hands up.

We are going to have to play this game in our OWN country

This is why we need to vote Brexit, to save our people, culture and heritage.

It aint a black/white choice and depends largely on individual countries and how they would handle immigration, as well as how much time is left before a new country gets the Greece treatment
