  1. Sued for what? For not providing state aid for foreign nationals? Isn't that Nigeria's responsibility in this case? And just where do you think the council gets its money from? The magic money tree? Have you forgotten that the state/council has no cash of its own, but has to raise money through taxation? If you want uncontrolled immigration, this is the result. And if you want to house uncontrolled numbers of non-UK citizens from poor countries around the world, you're going to have to get the money from somewhere. How about doubling tuition fees? No? Increasing social housing rent? Scrapping free NHS treatment at the point of use? Closing down non -essential services like libraries and youth clubs?

  2. Didn't know the tories were responsible for housing the world's poor?

  3. But we do that all the time though, don't we? We don't, for example. intervene in Syria to protect children in a way we would if they were UK citizens caught in the crossfire. The NHS does not treat children in Africa for malaria or AIDS. The UK government doesn't house the homeless in Brazil. If you want uncontrolled immigration, and you want to house the worlds poor, then you're going to have to pay. And as you're just one person, you're going to have to persuade others to pay also. Which means higher taxation and more cuts to non essential services. And where is the Nigerian governments responsibility in this? Why no condemnation over their complete lack of interest in the plight of one of their own citizens? You want the UK to have the responsibility for the worlds poor without the authority or the funds.
