Are you another of these bleeding heart right wingers who can't deal with the world as it is? The other day I was chatting on here with a couple of right wing posters who were shocked and very upset to find out there was so much corruption in lots of poor developing countries.

Yes Sweden has had a problem with immigrants, so has Germany

But Living standards in Sweden, Denmark and lots of Europe is way way better than the U.K.

So immigrants is not the cause of the UKs declining living standards…..it’s our domestic politics

So why are the illegal migrants so desperate to get here?

£10m of contributions a year that is, for almost 10 years.

Some people think foreign aid is a good thing.

Yeah feck it, it's not like there are many Brits who are struggling to pay the bills, at foodbanks or can't afford their own home. We should just keep lining the pockets of these quangos. It's only a 100 million after all (y)

My point is that the world isn't perfect. I know that right wingers are desperately worried about the living standards of illegal immigrants and the only reason they want to forcibly deport them is in order to improve their lives. And I know they are also desperately worried about corruption in poor developing countries and they believe that the best way of weeding out this corruption is to cut off supplies of food and other aid. Obviously this idealism and love for those less fortunate is something to be admired. But I think it is at odds with reality.
