The post you are reporting:
The cynical answer is we Brits have less rights in our own country than those visiting it. On the news tonight, an article about the old folks held hostage in Somalia. The local Somali community spoke very strongly about how wrong it was for them to be held and called for their immediate release. All very laudible and they deserve credit for their words and actions..
However, at the meeting in London there were a reported 700 Somali's attending. 700!!!! I don't know how many Somali's there are in the UK, but, I was shocked to find so many attending a meeting. Going on the 80/20 principle that suggests in London alone there could be 3500 Somali's; why so many and what are they all doing here?
If we extrapolate those numbers across nations we have no real relationship with, the numbers could be staggering. Of course, diplomatic missions require staff and families and they absolutely should be allowed to be here, but what of the rest?
What has this got to with homeless people? Well, 3500 Somali's have to live somewhere, as do all the other foreign nationals. Now, I'm not a BNP member, but, you have to wonder why our Government isn't tougher on proteccting it's own people who clearly need homes AND jobs.
