By Harold Briley from London - The Falkland Islands and Gibraltar have been reassured by the British Government that it will protect their right to choose their own way of government. The pledge was contained in the Government’s programmer and new laws for the forthcoming session of Parliament, outlined in the traditional Queen’s Speech to both Houses of Parliament.

    “The Queen’s speech announced new laws to be introduced by the Government to restrict immigration, discouraging those who make no contribution to the economy and exploit the social benefits system. Immigrants who can make a positive contribution such as people with skills and students will be encouraged. Proposed new laws will make it easier to deport foreign criminals in Britain illegally and make it harder for them to cite human rights to avoid expulsion.”

    Sig Heil!

    I'm sure the British Jews will be found to be “exploiting” the social benefits...

    When the leaders of a nation starting using the words “exploit” and “immigrants”, you know it is not far away to THIS:

    @1 Probably best if you never attempt to get into the UK. The Speech refers to three groups of individuals. You seem to be in two of them.
    @3 Isn't that what CFK has already achieved? Courtesy of all the nazi war criminals that entered argieland? That name.............Kirchner. Hmmm!
    @5 Yep. British rocketry started with H.G. Wells and American with Robert Goddard.
    @7 Ah yes, but they weren't mad “doctors” like Mengele, major organisers of the Holocaust like Eichmann, members of theGestapo, SS and Einsatzgruppen, concentration camp guards and so on, were they?

    Looking at Off_his_Trolley, anyone would think those Europeans in South America didn't like immigration controls...

    Wouldn't have been too keen on the indiginous peoples of 'Argentina' having them, Bitch about the Falklanders having them, and now having a moan at the UK...

    Take their second passports off them, and then let's hear them really explode.

    @Raul

    This is off topic

    It has nothing to do with the subject of the thread.

    “Raul” has spammed several threads with this Argentine Government message.

  • Falklands are British

    It is amazing that these people believe that a million or indeed a billion signatures would make any difference to irrevocable decisions already taken after 1982.

    They are simply stupid. There is no other way of describing them.

    I'm sure that we could find a million signatures in Britain to say “Cristina's arse is fat”.

    I don't think it would make any fifference to her personality cult!

  • Falklands are British

    Thanks Troy. I am truly offended by that big fat arse and I am going to do something about it.
    I need your support for a petition that I am going to take, when I get a million signatures, to Weight Watchers....yeah you heard... WEIGHT WATCHERS.

    Go to www.Getridofthatoffensivebigfatarsechristina.com and get your name down. She cannot be allowed to get away with this. It just gone on for too long.

    Even BK has been suffering lately with brewers droop. A first for this prime Argentine stud.

    @23 FAB

    Thanks for the link to your petition.

    However, I am having trouble logging on.
    My Internet provider tells me that the URL pathway is “oversubscribed”, ie. “too many people are trying to log on at once.”

    There must be a great rush to sign that petition!

    “You do know how the USA and Britain developed rocketry do you?”

    Yes, Britain developed rocketry on the Isle of Wight (without Nazis), at Spadenum (without Nazis) and at Woomera (Australia without Nazis) and unlike the USA and USSR our rockets did not blow up on the launchpad.
