Immigrants: 10yr wait for Benefits & Housing!
Ponty replied to SOTONS EAST SIDE's topic in The Lounge
On what grounds? Should an employed 'immigrant' have to wait longer for NHS treatment than a benefit sponging Brit, of which there are plenty? You're going to have to put that into some sort of context because it looks like you're just discriminating on racial grounds otherwise. -

TDD, ask yourself, has the venerated BBC never misquoted someone? Never had to retract a story? Never issued an apology for a misleading broadcast? Are all of its media types above making a mistake? The truth is, in many cases their stories are sourced from the same places that othe 'less-worthy' broadcasters/newspapers get their information and they're not always above reproach. Yes, I'm sure this story is factual but I was speaking quite broadly. It's too easy to claim something is 100% true because "the BBC said so!" -

Nah, I was being tongue-in-cheek. Of course the Beeb doesn't incite racial tension ffs. I think it's the dumbing down of the media in genral that has led to a lot of the ignorance in society. It's ironic that the more accessible "news" has become, the lower the quality that has been maintained. Given all of the facts, most people would probably reach identical conclusions on very many issues. -

I'm not trying to say something but remember this; ITV had the first non-white newsreader... -
You're the one full of vitriol my friend. Not once have I wished anyone dead or speculatively lied about the parentage of their children. I think you need to get your own house in order before complaining about others.

Except anaemia and low blood-pressure.

Reporting my post? Brilliant. I don't see why I should react to your idiocy in a way different to any other user. Complain away. If those upstairs agree with you I'll happily become 'any other user' and remind you of this thread every single day. You should be ashamed of yourself. I wonder how St Keith's 'friends' would feel about yours and his shared opinion.

Perhaps you should consider that before spouting off your bile. I haven't got much time for Jade Goody and her ilk but I have even less time for people of seemingly more intelligence who are actually as ignorant and bigoted as she is.

What am I saying, starting?

She's got 2 kids, by the same father, Jeff Brazier. You're really starting to look a **** now.

I can't believe it's taken you all so long! It was obvious he was shocking at a fully competitive level when we played Mansfield away in the cup 3 or 4 years ago.
-
I haven't missed the point. You're being a facetious *****.

You're an utter tool. -
The Labour Party and the NHS dentists.

Blimey, you're a nice bloke. I genuinely hope neither yourself or someone you love has to ever deal with cancer.

Probably fed up of listening to all the whining over here. -
It'd be crass and disgusting to make money from someone else's suffering, but making it from your own is not the same thing at all. I think you're so wide of the mark that you can't even see the mark anymore.
-
As I'm sure would she.

Well I think that anyone who has to suffer from cancer should be allowed to do as well for themselves as possible without being judged. Just in case, like. Personally, I'd rather be sans cancer and cash.

It says in The New Testament that Stanley is a ****wad, and I'm now a believer.
-
Jesus Christ. It's sad when somone gets vilified from making the best of a situation. What would you rather have, a few dozen grand in the bank and cancer or no cancer?
-
Well yes, they're one of the strongest companies in the world. I'd imagine there's as much an element of intolerance of failure as credit problems though. I would've put money on Toyota being the first to jump and Honda being one of the last.

We only conceded one goal.
