difference to the fundamental argument about refugees/migrants. Anyone with any imagination whatsoever was capable of realising that children were drowning crossing the Mediterranean (along with adults, of course, but they're not as newsworthy), so why the sudden burst of concern because now there's a picture of it? How does it alter anything?

Basically, if your views on this situation are in any way altered by the fact that you've seen a picture of a dead kid, congratulations: you're a thick c**t.

Which, I imagine, is probably about the only thing we agree on in this whole sorid business.

I still dont see why it isnt beyond the will of man to identify the most underpopulated, economically f**ked part/parts of europe, house all of the refugees (because that's what most of them are) there and all pay jointly for their sanctury as good, responsible Europeans.

We could even give the countries likely to qualify as a perfect place, we all know who they are, some form of incentivised ECB credit and some good might even come out of this.

different culture, religion and background - at any price.

Yours if I may say so is a typical European's solution: ignore particular national sensitivities and hope for the best. And that, in a nutshell, is why the EU is failing.

Simply house them in the most cost effective place in the most cost effective way, according to their country of origin. Then, when the trouble's over they can be sent back in an orderly, sensible fashion.

It's a humanitarian solution to a humanitarian crisis, it's probably above making cheap points about yerp over tbh.

Meanwhile Cameron is saying "We wont help anybody by taking more refugees". It clearly will, the refugees.

So I am paying to also do it myself, sorry PJ. Though supragovernmental action is probably beyond me.

That's what he meant, I reckon.

Thanks for the donation though. Christmas is just around the corner :thumbup:

3rd world economic development so there's less reason for these poor wretches to leave home in the first place.

Also,sort those mad f**ks ISIS out as they're only going to cause misery in more places and keep the refugee torrent flowing in to Europe.

We've only taken in 216 of the f**kers from Syria, they're as rare as hen's teeth.

It's almost as if walking away whistling and saying "It's nothing to do with us, guv" is a bit crass and wrong.

Did I ever mention that my father, who has just fallen asleep on my sofa having guzzled about a thousand quids worth of Bowmore, was born an orphan in some African mud village.

will piss and moan about how we need to get out and then be happy to accuse us of creating a power vacuum and another humanitarian crisis when we do.

You can't win with these f**kers. Whatever 'The West' does will always be wrong :shrug:

trouble is over, do you? Or that EU law or the HRA allows for a 'solution' like this? Or that these camps won't themselves in turn become the subject of liberal hand-wringing about the conditions or the inevitable abuses of power that will take place within them? No, it won't do, I'm afraid.

Frankly the most retarded policy I've ever seen.

board and lodgings will cost a mere fraction of what they are currently paying to the generation of well-qualified, yet somehow essentially unskilled, spoiled, broke, lazy whiners they've been breeding and raising themselves for the last couple of decades. Hence "humanitarian crisis".

Germany's birthrate is ridiculously low and its stricter interpretation of labour laws has meant that it has taken on nowhere near the level of economic migration as Britain in recent years. It now needs skilled immigrants, which is why they've specified the Syrians who are far more likely to be westernised, educated and skilled than the Eritreans, Iraqis or Afghans.

So yes, there is a good deal of cynicism in what Germany is doing, but j seems to be suggesting we house these chaps in southern Europe.
