I was cursing in bed this morning too.....listening to this unbelievable nonsense on the radio. :cwm23:

Yes, I vote UKIP.....so clearly I'm a racist and a menace to 'ethnic minority' kids. :NoNo:

Phew....despite ME, mine have now managed to grow up into well-balanced law-abiding British Citizens...with degrees and jobs, fully assimilated into our society, with friends from all nationalities and beliefs, and with non-racist views). :icon_rolleyes:

This is just awful! :cwm23: These councils should not consider the foster parents' political views..they should look how these foster parents nurture and treat children as a whole..no wonder there are kids who are abused or put up for adoption in to wrong people as they don't know which are good and which are not..they clearly shouldn't be running these kind of organizations when they don't know how to. Kids suffer because of such things. :NoNo:

I also heard on the news that people who want to adopt kids can only adopt at their own council and can't go to others. :crazy: She, the adoption campaigner, was saying that there are councils who have lots of kids up for adoption that won't ever have a chance to be adopted if there are only few people who want to adopt in the area, and there are councils who have only few kids up for adoption but lots of people who want to adopt. :doh

how ridiculas:NoNo:

Don't forget we are talking about Rotherham social services here. After their performance in the Grooming cases they should have been closed down.

could be more to it, before i comment

[joebloggs]

nothing surprises me about Social Services and adult safeguarding, :NoNo:

but i wonder if this is the real reason the kids were removed, after all they are only fostering the kids not adopting them,

Exactly.
It seems they would rather have the kids in institutions, in-between being moved from family to family and open to abuse from all and sundry. :NoNo:

Idiots.

They are assuming that the kids are going to be 'influenced' by the foster carers' PRESUMED views.

Typical knee-jerk reaction by social workers, half of whom have probably never even reared a child. :icon_rolleyes:

Incidentally, children can be fostered by the same family for many years (though it is more common for the poor kids to be shoved from pillar to post).

My former partner (mixed race Jamaican/English) was fostered from the age of 6 years along with her twin sister, right up until adulthood.
The same (white) foster parents also fostered mixed race twin boys from age 18 months, along with a white girl who they'd adopted from birth, plus their own son....and what a lovely happy family they were, well-accepted into their local village community.

Bringing up kids is all about giving love, a sense of security, setting a good example in all things, and demonstrating balanced views on life.

Nothing to do with politics.

A disgrace - looks like the socialist excuse of a council is about to u turn

Have I missed something what's the joke ?

[lastlid]

Basically, I see UKIP as one trick ponies. And anyone wanting to bring a filipina wife and maybe her children into this country would be daft to vote for them - like shootin' yerself in the foot.

[lastlid]

UKIP. Sorry, I cant take them seriously.

[stevewool]

the trouble is which party can you take serious, it use to be lets help schools, police and pensioners, and give 1p to family allowance and everyone seemed to be happy,then again i cant comment, i dont vote

[andy222]

Good question steve. Who do we vote for? At he present time tories are completly wrecking it for the working class. Labour did not help with thier open door policy. Ukip well what can i say.? Lib dems I wouldnt give them the time of day they are weak. So I dont know.

[grahamw48]

Well I can tell you that it was a lot easier and cheaper to bring in my Filipina wife and her children when there were much stricter immigration controls and the Tories were in power. :)

£40 per visa, no other 'tests', letter from employer and letter from landlord if renting. 1 year 'probation' before full leave to remain granted.

And yes, I was a Tory voter and anti-immigration/EU.

[andy222]

Yes but under UKIP it would be near impossible to bring your wife here.

[grahamw48]

Nobody knows that.

As has been said on here...get rid of the uninvited riff raff and don't let any more in...the only chance of a more reasonable approach to people in our situation.

I don't slavishly agree with all UKIP's policies, but what does anyone else offer ?

[stevewool]

its a hard one lads , you cannot agree on all the polices that the party you vote in, its down to how you think, thats why i dont vote, and i dont expect anything from them either,there is only 2 parties, labour and the cons, both as bad as each other

[grahamw48]

Problem also is that the buggers don't do what they promised before the election anyway. :icon_rolleyes:

[andy222]

If you read the manifesto it tells you.
http://www.ukip.org/media/pdf/UKIPlocalManifesto2012.pdf
Freeze permanent immigration for 5 years.

[lastlid]

At least the other parties are offering a route in, albeit difficult. UKIP would shut up shop completely, with the exception of business / work visas and permits - from the horses mouth.

The guy's a great orator so its easy to see how someone can be sucked into what he stands for and Immigration is perceived as a vote catcher. But it is amazing how gullible some folk can be.

Oh, Nigel, you didn't answer the ladies (Sara Teather) question on settlement and family immigration.....

this is the problem, and i think also if i was not married to Ems and i thought the phils was part of bangkok, i would be sucked in also

....this is the problem, and i think also if i was not married to Ems and i thought the phils was part of bangkok, i would be sucked in also

Yes. Exactly. If I was long since divorced from a Filipina and single then perhaps I would potentially vote UKIP. Note the word potentially as I, personally, still wouldn't vote for them but if I was a brick short of a load then I might. Aye oop but there's none queer as folk though.

[lastlid]

Lets say I was really stupid and selfish then I still wouldn't vote UKIP until my wife had citizenship here, as things stand.

Shaping the Future

Bitterness is a terrible thing . :NoNo:

I would actually be described as 'well-spoken' (boarding school education). :smile:

The sly digs (clearly aimed at myself :icon_rolleyes:) about my divorce ?

Comment with some credibility after you've been married to a Filipina for 15 years....and after YOU have reared some children from another culture and ethnicity, to get back on topic.

UKIP leader's fury after member is banned by Barnardo's from caring for children

UKIP leader puts the cry out "discrimination".......:icon_lol: as David Cameron declares that not all of the UKIP members are racists. Presumably he was referring to the nutters and fruitcakes? :icon_lol:


"A row over two UKIP members having their foster children removed took a new twist last night when another woman claimed she had been barred from looking after children because she was a party candidate.
