Some people are less equal than others

An asylum seeker in Liverpool | 13.12.2006 21:50 | Migration | Liverpool

I just saw this and I thought everybody should read it.


Some people are less equal than others



Of course all people are equal



But some people like asylum seekers are less equal than others



You are a person liable to detention



If you complain you will now be a person liable to removal



Who asked you to come here after all?



Of course we care



If there is oil



You may not enter employment, paid or unpaid, or engage in any business or profession



You must report to an immigration officer



If you want ask George Orwell



That all people are equal



Only asylum seekers can survive a £5/day existence



Having a plastic card denying the right to work and travel



Therefore, in this particular instance



Asylum Seekers are more equal than others



You criticized your authorities for mowing down



Students, intellectuals and children



But we call that over-reaction



If you now begin to criticize us



Be careful



You are a person liable to be detained



All's well that ends with removal



You want us to condemn your man



Unfortunately, we can't do that



It is not only a matter of diplomacy



It is also a matter of interest



Democracy?



What democracy?



This is democracy



He keeps our interest



The man is our ally



He does the job very well



What do you mean?



You claimed asylum



We detained you



Your man pleases us



We please him



What is the problem?



We don't know you



We know there are some rotten eggs inside the box



Hence we treat all the eggs alike



Since the healthy eggs cause no problem to us



We may even like to treat the rotten ones with more care and support



You may think it is like the concentration camp



You are a German but since you are a Jew



You are less German than others



You fell short below the Aryan race



You compare the Gestapo with the immigration police of the Home Office?



Absolute Nonsense!



What do we have for you this Christmas?



Leave not to sign in until the holidays pass



Merry Christmas



Then this Christmas all people will nearly be equal

There are no asylum seekers in this country

Because asylum seekers are supposed to go to the NEAREST safe country. France and Ireland aren't in a state of civil war, as far as I'm aware.

I think you're confusing people who SAY they are asylum seekers with real asylum seekers. The people you are talking about are ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, who are here because their own countries are third world shit holes, and they think it's fair for US to have to work our guts out to pay for THEM to come here, breed like rabbits, and turn our countries into shitholes like the places they came from.

Can you tell me why you think this isn't going to happen? Have you seen Somalians produce anything at all of value in this country?

Stupid lefties...
