Gender and biological sex are the same thing - an XY chromosome duo results in a male person - an XX duo results in a female person - end of story.

There are 750,000 empty houses in this country and there is room to build one million houses with the necessary infrastructure on brownfield land and there are thousands of empty and unused garages in all sorts of places at the back of estates and near shopping areas, and there are empty shops in out of town centres which will never be used for retail - all of this can be transformed into housing without touching the green belt or by building estates of nasty houses on green fields on the edge of towns and villages. CPRE has the detailed information.

But every article on this site about the ‘ the vital need for housing’ ’ is a thinly disguised and so called ‘discussion’:

a) to allow housing anywhere and everywhere and
b) avoid the elephant in the room - of illegal immigration and asylum seeking of people who are criminals (because they enter the UK without permission) and should be deported the moment they set foot in UK waters or the mainland.

It doesn’t convince - we all know the problems - we all know the answers - and the Tories need to address them.

I suspect there’s more dodgy money and people in London from Russia, Eastern Europe, Saudi, Nigeria etc than from China - so why not clean out those we’ve already flagged up. China won’t care - they spend their money in the USA.

If young people mostly went to universities close to their own homes, there would be no need for residential loans - and we would not be emptying out our villages and towns of every 18year old brought up there.

If young people only studied courses at universities that led to professional job then they would be able to pay the loans back. I read that the government calculated that 90% of loans will not be repaid in full.

If young people went to a local college or a job with training at work/college - then they would have fulfilling work and the taxpayer would not be picking up the unpaid student loans.

The truth is that there are too many universities offering too many useless courses.

Tax loopholes - are you joking - with mortgages at 14.5% and upwards and 10% deposit required before a mortgage was even considered and no bank loans and few credit cards - you had to live within the income you had after paying huge housing costs - therefore no foreign holidays or indeed any holidays - old cars, few nights out - and working from age 16 or 18 living with your parents while you saved up.

Couldn't agree more - let's face it - the students haven't been in school since March - they've lost 4 months teaching - so no-one has completed the course. Let the universities decided.

Paid for by the taxpayer x how many million people - it's £36K per year per illegal immigrant for every year they live here (Foreign Office figures)

And they'll be working in the black economy - it's called modern slavery.

The traffickers don't bring them here for fun - they charge them to come and they exploit them when they get here.

Brits don't rock up illegally in foreign parts demanding entry and expecting other countries tax payers to support them. Brits have jobs to go to or have pensions. Try getting housing and health care in Spain if you are a penniless Brit. I can hear the mocking laughter from here.

Anyone and everyone who enters the UK illegally should immediately be returned to either France - or their home countries. No exceptions. They are criminals because they are entering a country illegally.

And stop calling them asylum seekers - they are not otherwise they would seek refuge in the first safe country they arrive in.

And don't call them refugees - they are not otherwise they would be legally in a refugee camp.

Most are young men (what a surprise) or unaccompanied children. Are you kidding me - I don't know any child who could reach the next village from me and that's a mere 3 miles - never mind across a continent. These children are the 'Tojan Horse' - their parents and relatives have saved up to send them and will soon mysteriously appear at our borders and tearfully join their lost children - not take them back to their own countries of course.

The countries from which these people come are often vile - but the UK did not become the civilised country it is by the population running away from problems - these people should sort their own countries out and not expect us to take all the problems of the world - including them.

And we should just send them back.

I believe that the absence of ID cards in the UK and universal free health care - no questions asked - enable the illegals to disappear into the shadows.
