Not gonna happen - not with this cretinous sadistic govt and their mute abetters in Opposition - who diminish us all.

spindoc,

Just noticed you composed a lengthy post to moi.

I haven't bothered to read it - one scan was enough to note that you were having one of your moments where you try to be very very clever - but, (unfortunately) you appear to have missed out on the wit gene.

Still. I suppose you might impress some around here - good luck with that : )

Back after a day off, taken by my computer.

Re Spindoc's queries: History-based reasoning means nutting things out on the basis of truth about both prior and current events.

The second query would be answerable if his was a correct quotation. Here's the context:

There are basically two kinds of country: Those TO which millions are seeking to flee and those FROM which millions are seeking to flee. The first kind are decent countries and the second kind are crap countries.

The first kind are often called the West but are also partly or wholly found in some non-Western countries like India. They share a culture (singular) - with national variants – consistent with the European Enlightenment which respects the freedom and autonomy of the individual. The decent countries are secular (freedom FROM religion, not just freedom FOR religion). Currently they are governed by elected governments.

The crap countries are mired in tribal savagery and multiple warring "cultures" (plural) and are often theocratic (usually Moslem) and brutally misogynistic as well as misanthropic. Power is seized and held at gunpoint.

The basic responsibility for the flood of refugees belongs to those who insist on making their countries crap, who visit racist (tribal) and religious oppression on themselves and their fellows. It does not lie with people smugglers, whose role is to provide a means of escape. In the West we can help refugees by giving up needless officious bullying (see proposals of the Refugee Council – link posted by Foxy) but it’s their countries’ fault, not ours, that they need refuge, and we must vigorously resist racially or religiously supremacist Fifth Columns. Not because such Fifth Columns are “different” but because they’re throwbacks and toxic to three centuries of hard-fought liberty and human rights. Nobody who respects human liberty and those who have worked and died for it will speak up for Fifth Column enemies.

PS: What’s this “Myanmar”? Burma is a nation with a proud history and armed thugs who rule it at gunpoint can’t change its name. Only the Burmese people can

'morning o sung Wu,

It was a pure spoof, nothing to do with real maths. I guess if you had really done maths you would have known this.

Poirot,

You sound like you are thrashing. It's nice to hear you explaining why you are not vituperant!

Keep working on it

Poirot,
Yeah we're fearful and insecure and if we White men on our "magic carpet ride through life" are in that state then things must be really bad wouldn't you say?
I have two teenage daughters, I do fear for their safety when we have a illegal, Chinese owned rooming house full of male Asylum seekers on the next street and yes it does impact me financially having to drive my kids everywhere because public transport is infested with brown skinned sex offenders.
Poirot I know bitter, hate fueled middle class women like you are happy to sacrifice working class girls as rape dolls and sex slaves to Asian predators but sooner or later it's going to come to your doorstep, these men lack the intelligence to discriminate between a middle class vagina and a working class one.

JoM,

"....Poirot I know bitter, hate fueled middle class women like you are happy to sacrifice working class girls as rape dolls and sex slaves to Asian predators but sooner or later it's going to come to your doorstep, these men lack the intelligence to discriminate between a middle class vagina and a working class one."

Ooh!...now there's a bit of first class "spewing and gushing out abhorrence and vituperation - contorted with utter loathing".

You should watch yourself, Jay, or you'll have o sung wu and spinny chastising you.

Although around here I suspect that it's only lefties who can be officially classified as displaying such vituperate behaviour.
