    Why would you assume he meant you?

    Is it because you have some 'beliefs', that you cling onto despite being shown facts that prove them wrong?

    Is it because deep down you know what you feel and the cap fits perfectly, but you're ashamed?

    Or something else?

    I'd laugh at this if it weren't so depressing.

    It's a free country, I'll say what I like thank you. If you and others come out with stuff that's beyond the pale, I'll give you my opinion. Free speech and all that...

    I genuinely don’t see it as been argumentative at all mate, to be honest I’d be interested on why the uk seems more attractive, what is it that we offer more than other countries on that list.

    But when a couple of people have pointed the reasons out already and the person has just chosen to ignore it or not believe it, it starts to look like their mind is already made up.

    I'll ask you why you think that the UK seems more attractive?

    Because the statistics don't support that statement?

    And after being pointed at the facts, someone choosing to ignore them and continue posting opinions that are clearly not supported by any data is frankly weird. How would you describe it, if not argumentative or odd?

    Why don't you step away and read the links that have been posted, and then maybe look up how many asylum seekers come here compared to other countries?

    Why are facts not important to you?

    And if you were posting facts that you could show evidence for, and others were posting clearly uninformed opinions that they refused to question, what words do you think fit that behaviour?

    To be honest I’ve not read all the facts, I’m too busy watching squirrel porn so I’ll just apologise and say you’re right I’m wrong ;)

    At the point of being belligerent - I have not offered an opinion, I just pointed someone to some facts.

    I'm not the one getting hurt because someone didn't like my opinion, though. That's the main difference.

    Expenses and election spending under investigation and for sending inappropriate messages to staff. I see what you mean :(
