Why is it whenever I see or hear videos of people winging about immigrants like 70% of them are from Essex?

Essex just seems like a void of intelligence in virtually every aspect. I've never been there nor do I ever plan on going there. I feel like I'd lose braincells simply passing through. Fuck all there anyway.

I’m from Essex and honestly I agree with a lot of what you’ve said. It’s depressing being surrounded by people who swallow that narrative, and I often feel like a minority for questioning it. Critical thinking just doesn’t seem to click with most people I come across here.

That said, there are some genuinely nice parts of Essex worth visiting, and the history is actually quite interesting. I suppose I’m only saying that to keep things balanced, but it’s not all bad – just a shame the loudest voices give the place such a reputation.

Essex has an IQ deficit. The Alabama of England.

Essex is the Reform heartland. I don’t know what’s wrong with those people.

Don't forget Kent.

u/Kajafreur 7d ago

Absolutely. I have the exact same feelings towards Kent, but I tend to hear about Kent a lot less than I do Essex.

There must be a direct correlation between racism and proximity to the Thames estuary.

Totally agree!

Maybe a throwback to the noble Tilbury Docks / Windrush past ... ?

I actually want to see this. Can Sue Johnstone play his Mum though.

That flag needs to be more realistic, it needs to be a plastic one from Temu that’s ripped and faded after being in the sun for 48 hours, and on a flagpole?? Nah, it needs to be cable tied halfway up a lamppost.

What did Rylan do, I’m working in Norway so missed this new UK TV scandal ?

u/sprouting_broccoli 7d ago

Yeah I was OOTL as well but apparently he said some silly stuff about immigrants.

https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/rylan-clark-this-morning-immigration-uk-reform-labour-b2816309.html

But he added that there is “something wrong” with the way refugees are welcomed. “Here’s the iPad. Here’s the NHS in reception of your hotel. Here’s three meals a day. Here’s a games room in the hotel. Have a lovely time and welcome,” he said.

Please describe the legal route for an asylum seeker to enter this country.

Also, do you know asylum numbers pre and post brexit? Also, do you know how much the system of assessing asylum seekers was impacted by brexit? Do you know who has profited from these delays?

u/Simon_Drake 8d ago

IIRC they go to Calais where there's an unattended table with a sign saying UK Asylum Processing Centre with a sheet of paper stuck to the wall saying in English to go to the Embassy in Paris. Then you go to the Embassy in Paris and they tell you that legally you can't apply for asylum in the UK unless you are in the UK.

Also the Conservatives made it illegal to help someone claim asylum in the UK. That clip of Nicholas Winton who saved hundreds of children from the holocaust and the entire auditorium is filled with the adults he saved decades ago, and he cries like Oscar Schindler saying "I should have saved more". That's illegal today, Sunak's government made the greatest act of kindness illegal.

Here's the clip of Nicholas Winton if you're unfamiliar with it.

Oh put a sock in it. I simply don’t want any more “refugees” … NO MORE. Let the marvellous EU take them. France is not a war torn country… after all they’re in the marvellous EU.

u/ukstonerdude 8d ago edited 8d ago

Maybe write to your MP begging them to ask Starmer to have a bit more of a spine when dealing with international conflicts then? Perhaps we wouldn’t have any refugees were it not for the fact we stand idly by as one of the supposed ‘most powerful nations’ that refuses to boycott, divest or sanction other nations (or picks and chooses which it applies it to, technically).

Nobody wants refugees, that’s like wanting more war, but as long as there are refugees they are most certainly fucking welcome in our Britain.

Perhaps you can campaign to make French the more commonly spoken language so they’ll stay there instead of coming with the little English they have as the only other language they speak besides their mother tongue.

u/sherlocksvillain 8d ago

If you dont want any more refuges, it would be advisable to move to a country that doesn't accept any. Perhaps Rwanda?

u/MyRapNameWouldBeKirk 7d ago

Oh shit I love this! All I’ve been hearing over the last three weeks about these flags is “if you don’t like them leave”…hit them with a bit of their own logic.

u/scooba_dude 7d ago

Lmao! So you have actually chosen ignorance? You are part of the willfully ignorant that "just" wants simple fixes to incredibly complex problems.

Have you not noticed that Nigel caused the influx of immigrants with Brexit? Look at the numbers you fool! Numbers not feelings, you're such an emotional snowflake lol

u/cobbler888 7d ago

Aren’t these numbers the same as France, Germany and other EU countries? They’re in the EU and it hasn’t helped them.

“Cry lefties” 😆

All you Deformers do is cry about all the people you don’t like; Muslims, Gays, Trans, Blacks, Africans, the French, Germans, the EU, the ECHR, people who live in London, Sadiq Khan etc etc

Whiny bunch of low IQ morons.

Nothing but white grievance politics.
