Re: Some positive news about Britain

Yes I do! I've lived in England 45 years. Knife crime was NEVER an issue until migrants made it one. As Sans points out, mostly we use our fists and out tongues. Think I can bear witness to this.;)

Re: Some positive news about Britain

There is quite a good read on this link but it's just a news link so take it with a pinch of salt, however it probably reflects the current situation to some degree.

Re: Some positive news about Britain

Australia has got their immigration policy very cleverly organised. They mostly allow in people who are self funding or who have skills. This creates a cycle of prosperity, growth and opportunity....

Re: Some positive news about Britain

Re: Some positive news about Britain

I have a big husband who makes a noise for me and looks after me, hence I don't need the big dog. Plus I can leave my little dog with my friends when I go away. No one wants an eating, pooping, all...

Re: Some positive news about Britain

Re: Some positive news about Britain

I guess they're all different but in any case, keeping a dog does make a difference to protecting your property especially if it's got a loud bark.

Re: Some positive news about Britain

Re: Some positive news about Britain

I agree and despite the UK having a hard time economically, it's so good to see them dig deep into their pockets. (I don't like Jonathon Ross either).
Another bit of upbeat news, albeit confusing,...
