just shut up you small-minded racist twonk.According to the 2011 census, the total population of the United Kingdom is around 63,182,000.[1] It is the third-largest in the European Union (behind Germany and France) and the 22nd-largest in the world. Its overall population density is one of the highest in the world at 256 people per square kilometre
Mobile billboards calling on illegal immigrants to leave the UK have been criticized as a step too far by politicians. Campaign backers have hailed the initiative as an “alternative to arrest,” while critics decry the adverts as outright “intimidation.”
As part of a pilot scheme to help reduce illegal immigration in Britain, vans with billboards emblazoned with the slogan “Go home or face arrest” will be driven around London boroughs.
The message in full reads: “In the UK illegally? Go home or face arrest.” A hotline number is also shown where illegal immigrants may receive help and advice with travel documents. Leaflets and posters will be distributed in tandem with the billboard vans in the targeted boroughs.
British Immigration Minister Mark Harper has described the new initiative as “an alternative to being led away in handcuffs.”
“Every single day our enforcement officers are arresting, detaining and removing people with no right to be in the UK,” said Harper, adding that the mobile billboards are part of a new push to make it more difficult for people to live and work in the UK illegally. According to UK government figures 28,000 illegal arrivals voluntarily left the UK last year.
In conjunction with the billboards numbers of reforms are set to be introduced to combat illegal immigration in the UK. They will include a $4,600 bond which selected visitors from certain countries will be required to pay upon applying for a British visa. The bond will be returned to visitors from India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Nigeria and Ghana when they leave the country.
The new policy will come into effect this November of this year.

the uk has one of the highest population densities in the world. you seem to keep overlooking that statistic in your inane ranting. are you trying to suggest that we don't have a 'point' until we have a high-rise built on every single green-plot of land? quite a curious argument you have there, dilderp. australia is a growing country/economy. it is good if its population rises. you need eager immigrants and hard-workers to build future generations. the UK is established - over the hill, even. we have the third highest population in europe. we have plenty of immigrants and still take a proportional amount each year (legally). what sort of point are you trying to make? this 'britain has some space left' thing is not really top-class debate. you are feeble-minded.Dilbert_X wrote:

You're making the argument Australia has plenty of space so should allow anyone in.Uzique The Lesser wrote:

Why 'should' a country let people in just because the population density is low? Its one thing to take refugees, another just because their neighbour had too many kids.Uzique The Lesser wrote:
how hard is it for you to understand "one of the highest population densities in the world"?
and i never said "australia should let anyone in". i said your comment that 'australia lets in more immigrants a year than the uk iirc' was a fucking stupid comment. australia SHOULD. your population is TINY and your space is HUGE. i would be frankly more surprised if a tiny island with 65 million people on it already let in more immigrants than an empty fucking continent. jesus. this is NOT A DIFFICULT line of argumentation.
and the UK is hardly 'super restrictive'. the EU is a fucking zone of free labour movement.

russia doesn't have the employment prospects or industry, obviously. this is really not difficult. why are you trying to stifle the growth of australia? with a welcoming look to the future you could conceivably become one of the world's superpowers, with one of its most healthy and stable economies. but to do that you need growth. you need more generations of well-educated, hard-working citizens. not a bunch of 10 pound poms complaining about change. you are xenophobic, that is all. so what if well-educated or hard-working asians want to join the australian economy? they will help build your future. more so than a bunch of retired white octogenarians from the mother land ever will.Dilbert_X wrote:

Low population density is what gives a good quality of life, its not my fault Asia has overpopulated itself.
People per km2
By this logic refugees should be heading for Russia, or Greenland - I can't imagine there'd be much persecution there, but no those are poor places with shit welfare and crap weather so they head for Australia.
