hypothetically if the government?
this is for the pro-immigrants (and i want no porkies now!!)
hypothetically the government has decided to ask for volunteers to put up immigrants in their own homes and for a small contribution keep them.
now bearing in mind this is a person you know nothing about-you don't know about that persons history-probably doesn't speak the lingo so they cannot tell you anything about themselves.
and you have a family.
would you be prepared to take the risk of offering the spare room in your home to one?.
be honest now!!.
of course you would not be expected to put up a complete stranger.
the government will have "vetted" them.
but you only have its word for that.
thats a good point rommel-no problems in taking in starving kids.
i was referring to the adult poles/kosovans/croats etc descending upon our shores.
for greasy and cents-did you miss the word "hypothetically"!!.

"Let's say I break into
your house.
Let's say that when you discover
me in your house, you
insist that I leave.
But I say, 'I've made all
the beds and washed
the
dishes and did the laundry
and swept the floors. I've
done all
the things you don't
like to do. I'm hard-working
and honest (except for
when I broke into your house).
According to the protesters :
You
are Required to let me stay in your house You are Required to add me
to
your family's insurance plan You are Required to Educate my kids You
are
Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my family (my
husband
will do all of your yard work because he is also hard-working
and
honest, except for that breaking in part).
If you try to call
the police or force me out, I will call my friends
who will picket your
house carrying signs that proclaim my RIGHT to be
there.
It's only
fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and
I'm just
trying to better myself. I'm a hard-working and honest, person,
except for
well, you know, I did break into your house.
And oh yeah, I get a free
education, where you have to pay your own way
through college.(TEEHEE)
And what a deal it is for me!!!
I live in your house, contributing
only a fraction of the cost of my
keep, and there is nothing you can do
about it without being accused of
cold, uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, and
bigoted behavior.

no i would not. i have the safety of my Grand son to think about. i would gladly take on a starving child from Africa or India and bring them up as part of the family.....to be honest i think it makes more sense to bring in homeless children, than adults. because the children do actually genuinely need or help and will quickly settle and regard Britain as home. i personally think that is the way forward for future immigration. it will cut out the hate fuelled morons that we currently allow in.

If I had my own home that I owned & not on mortgage then probably yes. Maybe it's a good deterrent them knowing they have to share with such kind United Kingdomicilians.
There are some good people out there. What can we teach them OH YES PUB!!! Thats a nice place. So maybe it's a good idea or a bad one I dunno bout that one. How are they doing it anyway?

I rent a few rooms out, but I v got this funny feeling they wont feel that comfortable in my place. Unless they love Pork and Cider.

Nobody is being asked to offer a spare bedroom, so your question doesn't make sense!
That's like renting a room to any American. You don't know who they are if you don't gather information from them first.

If they are here to help out our economy/country?, then HELL YEAH!
It's hard for employers here to find real hard workers, and that's where the immigrants come in.
I'll teach them my lingo!

well I'm pro-immigrant and believe that our countries need them to aid the economy and all...but personally I wouldn't put my spare room up to a stranger, regardless of whether they spoke my language or not. It would be far too risky, like you could have a murderer or thief under your roof...
They mightn't be a stranger to the government but they would still be a stranger to you!

No. No No. is my answer. How on earth would you have a conversation with these people. You are asking for the Moon but will not get it,.
