You moved to the UK because stealing and begging the stinkers don't like working
Here Imergration is strangly controlled dont know how , From margate its normal then as soon as you go to Cliftonvil Road it is clearly shiwn Imergration is present , the locals make this neglected part of the town function as i can see Polish , Local British Margate and other work hard and i cant say anything bad but only my respect (Only bad thing is the young thugs and the odd margate ramsgate crackheads ) I trust and know if the locals Knew how to combat this they would and i promise you evryone the council and the local police will end all problems if only we know how to combat the homeless and crack head and thugs ❤ thank you to the locals ❤
how beautiful is life on benefits isn't 😂
These days it's full of "immigrants" from Shoreditch and Hackney, looking for their next item of conspicuous middle-class consumption – a place in Margate. They're all very right-on and anti-racist but ignore the fact they pushed the Roma out. The Romas never caused my rent to raise 10% per year.
Pairic Obrien always a woke prat-English lady might be costing her state but she’s born there
I hope the cat decided to go home.
Looks at the Asians from the Indian subcontinent. Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, Sri Lankans. Came here to graft and 50 years later are highly successful.
next we will have gated communities – oh already happening…. they stop MY money says he/ … odd its not your money exactly its our money in fact …. t a x …. little word big problem … …. like the genesis song selling england by the pound and now its sinking inch by inch …
It's disgraceful we should be dealing with our own problems before taking on other countries problems are , this government causes the problems, I don't blame the foreigners for wanting a better life
Sorry I don't see a difference between Maggie and the Gypsies. Both leech the system imo. If Maggie attempted to work for eg, then there will be no need for immigrants who come here on the pretext of doing menial jobs that no one wants to do.
Stupid benefits system in UK make people to do fckall… I am immigrant in UK, and I work here since I came, never had a thing in my head to be on benefits or something. As a immigrant I support UKIP, and I would like to see reforms of benefit system. The only thing what I am not agree with some of Brits, is that they are saying they cant find a job because of immigrants. In UK there is plenty of jobs, if you are not living somewhere in mountains.
7:48 They breed like fucking rats I see, nothing new there, something can always be done though.
This is my street. Fucking hate em
I lived down that street for a short while back in the 90s when it was Kosovan refugees etc escaping war and now it still attracts immigrants, Economic migrants who want a better life than in Slovakia or Romania. Its always been the poorest area of Cliftonville in Margate and will remain so with high unemployment and economic migrants who also rely on the benefits system for support.
Send them home!!!!!!!
That is a racist dog. Lots of dogs are racist including my dog.
Do not give them money it is the tax payers money and not from the government
Why are Slovak's here? Send them back
Agenda and portrayal, i like the report but there are so many different angles. For instance , build migrant camps out in the rural shires by the MP,s country residences and see what happens. The prolitariats have no choice and yet the governments squeeze multiple migrant heads in to any accomodation they can find and dam the consequences. This is a melting pot and it could explode at any moment , get real UK gov or you shall be tried for these actions in the future as high treason to the common people of this our country!
They should go home no-one wants them ! I've just quit my job I can't stand working with them anymore!
AND THIS IS WHY ALL OUR SEASIDE TOWNS ARE F….KED UP !
it's the same in the North.
They take over, deprive us of our services which we fund, and rent is extortionate as all the landlords are cashing in, making British families homeless, whilst WE fund THEM!!
The rage is building are there'll be riots soon, and murders. that's how angry people are, when they can't find a home, can't get a job, can't see a doctor and hospitals send you home.
it needs to stop.
There are plenty of gypsies who work hard and just want to save up money and move on with their lives. The media will always show the bad side because no one is interested in good news.
The English there have never worked, there the problem, they take our jobs 🙄, if they work there welcome, stop paying benefits to lazy English who never work and just keep breeding…
this is how 60 % of uk looks like now
She cost the state she's useless bad attitude
its a shame that nobody can see why the poor white class are like this! they are uneducated because our education is overun by immigrants, they are kept stupid by a goverment that promotes multicultralism even though it doesnt work, they dont want the working class to know the truth because it suits there agenda,
What scum
The only way things will change is to live by British laws.
Slovakians or GYPSIES? They areNOT WHITE! 🙄
I am late with this but since brexit, what are the rules ? I live in the
Without the immigrants, who would this woman have to blame for her not having a job..I wonder who she blames for having her 3 children in care?
Why are British 'holiday resorts' so awful?
Off you go back to Slovakia.
The Roma family seemed nice!
Real life stolen to push their hate. Attacker the victim.
