Labour and conservatives are on the ropes.

Wrong. One of the basic tenets is -

Equality before the law:
No one is above the law, and all are subject to the same legal principles,

Well if someone breaks the law by illegally entering a country and isn't prosecuted, but instead rewarded for their law breaking - they are obviously above the law.

What makes me laugh is the number of right wingers who are suddenly worried about the homeless and the sick.

What you're overlooking is that for many on the right, the attitude is charity begins at home.

What worries me is the number of leftists who, when proved wrong in an argument, get all hysterical about something completely different.

Hmm. Haven't we been here before with the other lot? I'm getting a strong sense of deja vu.

I foresaw this happening, why didn't the government?

oh look here is Si, who when proved wrong in an argument, gets all hysterical about something completely different:

It's a moot point because it couldn't happen. But if you're a British citizen, especially male, homeless and on the streets,

poor Si_ cant even make a good job of trolling

I'd generalise that comment and say the RWR tend to cleave the adage by giving a man a fish (and exploit the profit margin) while the left would much rather teach him to fish (and help them profit from better trade relations).

It's almost like none of the parties actually want to solve the problem. Just look like they're doing something.. Surely not!

They seem to have been wrong footed by an asylum seeker claiming he was actually a victim of human trafficking. I don't see it causing a big delay.

Bowllux................................ and double bowllux because Carmenmoraniumumumumumumum thanked you for your make believe Notchyfactoid.

Please show me where I have 'whined' about benefit scroungers. If I'm always doing it - shouldn't take you long.

Off you trot!

One problem with generous benefits is it allows some to adopt alternative lifestyles and attitudes that makes them unemployable.

The left want free fish paid by others.

So you foresaw that people would be fine about 400+ asylum hotels under a Conservative government but would suddenly start protesting under a Labour government when there are just over 200 hotels.

Wow! One very mild comment. Hardly 'always' is it?

It is the policies of the right that make charity necessary in the first place.
