Scapegoats today: Migrants and the BBC

[ninian opinian]

Nazis ???????????? how offensive to those who were persecuted and their relatives , who truly suffered at the hands of those evil people, how anyone right minded can relate those actions with what is happening now really does haver a distorted view of life .

Guess it gets a reaction though .

So far we have stayed away for the holocaust comparison which was was the genocide of European Jews .

Maybe its a new socialist in vogue thing to compare right wing governments to severe atrocities of the past ??

You saying migrants and their families are not being persecuted. Wake up.

You saying migrants and their families are not being persecuted. Wake up.

Are they being persecuted? Surely more wouldn't come if that were the case? Are they not being saved at sea by a British Institution and then looked after by the British state whilst their cases are processed?

When sub-standard accommodation was reported, the site was closed. Most now housed in hotels that prior to this people would holiday in.

I'm not saying it's the land of milk and honey at all, and I wish all genuine applicants the best, but I think you are mistaking people expressing a desire to solve this problem for persecution.

I am all ears for genuine examples of widespread persecution, but I'm not sure it exists, and certainly it is in no way comparable to the nazis victims - top clue here being that migrants are desperate to enter Britain. Jews were desperate to leave Germany.
