Fair play. I like these random connections. And your Albion aspirations. PS I really need to visit Gdansk, a beautiful city.

We agree that we want the best for the UK, and my family and friends future etc. why else would I be an active member of the Labour Party? It's certainly not for fun. Our vision and means of achievement differ though. Also, my work is UK based, and I pay business taxes in the UK; I do...

:wink:

I didn't know that. I have a little insight as a former boss was a Vietnamese refugee but mainly from a UK perspective. As an aside he also coached Junior McDougald at football. Out of interest what's your Brighton connection? No agenda, genuinely interested.

I never knew Sompting was so multicultural. Thanks for the heads up as I might consider living there should I return to the UK.

Correct. I've covered all this in post #1250

I guess the US felt an obligation for obvious reasons. As for the rest of Europe, and I admit I have just looked this point up, it appears that they mainly first came to the UK but after time joined larger Vietnamese communities across Europe.

They did, but I believe the boat people had landed on UK territories in the first place. Had they not landed in Hong Kong it's most likely the UK would not have been involved in my opinion.

Fair point. Maybe the man in the moon can take some as well? And them Martians have plenty of space. Or maybe geography and practicality plays a part?

Maybe high-heels and boob tubes are not practical in refugee camps?

And your point is?

So, you defend criticising someone for blowing their own trumpet by blowing your own trumpet. Genius :lolol:

That's your opinion. But from my experiences in life and especially work, negotiation is a lot easier if you engage as opposed to shout down a megaphone.

To be honest it's a point which a 10 year old could make.

Who you asking here, me or the Frau? Your post is a tad confused.

Changing the subject a bit, Andy Burnham has made a good point that if Cameron wants to start negotiating and obtaining a revised EU Treaty then maybe now is a time to show leadership, fully engage with the EU to resolve this crisis and in turn build those important relationships he'll need in...

1) Read my post again. I clearly stated in the very first sentence it's the wife helping; nothing to do with me. I don't take any glory for anything the Frau does. She's her own person. 2) Do you see the irony of you stating "No one knows anything about this chap"? How do you know this? How do...

Pork Knuckle Pete forms a W above his head, pushes his face forward, and says "whateveeeeeer"

Nice try. Remove true from your sentence and ask again.

I'll reply again as you have edited your post. Why are you so quick to judge this guy? In some respects it's irrelevant what his story is and what happened to his parents. The fact he is a young lad from Afghanistan who is living far away in a home all on his own is enough for me to be honest.
