Like most politicians today, he talks, talks, talks.

If and when he actually does something definite, I might begin to take a little notice.

For now, though, it's just background noise and doesn't attract any of my interest.
I agree JBR. What's happened since his fifteen minutes of fame?...... Nothing.

Yes, so it seems you can claim asylum if your life is at risk or if you are gay.

It's a boringly repetitive comment from a person who can only say one thing!

Depends on the country you are born in, so on fate.
I'm born in surinam (yes, my hair is curly). There being a limey was synonymous with being gay, because limes was not the only thing they sucked. When we came to the netherlands, stopping over in london, we had a hard time stopping my younger brother from being afraid of all those limeys.

Yes, I see that but if a country is against gays or curlies or whatever, that is that country's problem, not Britain's. We have enough problems of our own without worrying about the rest of the world. We send millions in aid to these countries whilst our own people die waiting for hospital treatment.

Yes, that certainly feels unfair. Until you have been to one of those places on earth.

Such places can sort themselves out as far as I'm concerned. We're not a charity for the world.

Many are former british colonies, stripped of their national resources by your ancestors. I'm from such colony, so know what I'm talking about.

By my ancestors maybe, but not by me or anyone else I know.
History is just that and should not be continually dredged up for ever more. Many of these places are their own worst enemies. We should be looking after our own people / country as a priority.
