All the germs and filth are coming out of the woodwork - my mate in Sydney said Carr's bent and does nothing but line his and his mates pockets. He said they had that Germaine Greer trollop on the TV last night saying Mrs Thatcher should have been prosecuted as a war criminal
Most likely Thatcher was referring to the HUGE influx from the Indian sub-continent and Pakistan... and certainly NOT to migrants from the Philippines.
Indeed, I read somewhere recently that she had been extremely praiseworthy of Ex-President Fidel Ramos and the people of these islands in a speech she gave to them during a mid-1990s visit to Manila.
Well she was probably right.
Just because I was married to a Filipina for 15 years and have a mixed race son and two Filipino stepkids doesn't mean that I can't make honest comments on immigration and its possible effects on the 'host' population.
Yep. I posted this link http://www.margaretthatcher.org/document/108355 in the other thread about her speech when she was in the Philippines on 1996.Originally Posted by Arthur Little

well we're the lucky ones then, because 1,000s of spouses were refused visa's under thatcher, thatcher and family values, but really a 'homebreaker'
The Tories were in power when my ex got her visa.
Cost me 40 quid and a few simple 'proofs'.
Same for the kids 5 years later...also under the Tories.
