• Raymond, I\'m not so sure about orange people, at least one of them is a bit disturbing and sets a bad example....

• Racisim had f*** all to do with Brexit. To suggest decent ordinary people would give a flying f*** what colour their neighbour is, or that they were somehow hoodwinked by cranks like Farage, is for the birds. rnrnThis was all about greed. Greedy politicians convinced a greedy population that somebody is taking a slice of their pie. The UK did not vote to \"Keep THEM out\". It voted to get itself the f*** out. rn\"Were paying too much\" \"were putting in more than we get out\"...\"They (The rest of Europe) are having our kecks down.\".rnrnGiven the destabilsing wars which have effected every economy (not to mention a worldwide pandemic) I find it amazing that anybody could argue with any degree of certainty as to whether or not Brexit had a positive/Adverse effect on the UK economy. rnrnBrexit was never really about immigration. They are two separate issues which are conveniently squashed in under the same umbrellarnrnrnrn...

• I remember as a kid when the UK population in 1950 was 50m it\'s now 70m that\'s some increase.rnI don\'t care what race they are, white, pink, black, orange, purple you name it, it\'s numbers and the quality of life I\'m concerned about. rnI suppose if you like crowds, waiting on congested roads and motorways etc, ever expanding villages, towns and cites, carry on let everyone in.rnrnIt wont affect me I wont be here, but it will affect our offspring....

• Hi KevinrnrnJust to clarify, I’m referring to net migration. (I called it net immigration) The figures have been relatively high for a while, but the trend is now down:-rnrn2022 891Krn2023 848Krn2024 331Krn2025 171KrnrnThe 2025 figure comprises 813K immigrants, and 642K emigrants, who are mainly people who have arrived in previous years, and now have left. They’ve come to the end of their University course, or their work contract, or have just decided to go home.rnrnThis is likely to.continue, as controls and rules have been tightened up further.rnrnThere may be others who have been deported but I’m not sure.rnrnSo a few of your 3million immigrants may well have gone home mate. Maybe a few more this year too.rnrnMore widely, you have a situation where climate change is causing floods, fires, famines. These cause shortages which can and do lead to wars. This isn’t going to disappear, and will likely lead to increases in asylum seekers.rnrnT...

• Phillip @16,rnrnHe has been sold for £60M. This will be confirmed after the World Cup.rnrnI\'d hold on tight to that if I were you, Phillip. After all, they know things down under. Could be vital for your street cred a few weeks down the road...rnrnFor me... it might be right, or it might be shite. I know which way I\'m leaning......
  Michael Kenrick in Iliman Ndiaye bangs in a worldie at the World Cup
• Good recruitment is everything. rnDibling joined for £35m+, has lost a footballing season, depreciated in value, doesn’t fit a Moyes defensive strategy. rnContrast with Rayan at Bournemouth, joined for £24.5m, instant PL success, started for Brazil at World Cup, value going up by the day. rnRecruitment is integral to success. rnI can’t comment on Hackney and other targets, but I hope this recruitment team is up to the job. ...
