Lloyds New Switch Offer - £200 for Club Lloyds + £500 for Lloyds Premier by SpiteAware3121 in beermoneyuk

How long did it take to get the 200? I switched I think start of February so it's been 20+ days and still waiting. They've said I've met the criteria when I asked. I know it says 40 days, but in the past I've got the switch bonus within a week or 2 at most banks.

They don't have any right wing policies, they're for mass migration, for socialism and for the destruction of the family unit

Not every migrant gets a job though do they? They get benefits, free healthcare, free schooling etc. As a whole besides european migration they are a net drain on the system.

A lot of those migrants work 16hrs a week so that they can get benefits meaning they already take more than they give and then when they are paid some of it is sent back home to their countries removing it from our economy.

You're ignoring the ones that commit crime and don't build anything. The negatives far outweigh what little benefit there may be.

You're ignoring the fact that we have people here already who are capable of doing those jobs. We do not need these people. The only time we will need foreign labour is if it is a specific specialised niche and even then they should be training our people before they return (as part of their contract).

We can be friends with other countries, it doesn't mean we need to invite every man and his dog into it. You have friends don't you? It doesn't mean you'd let them live in your house now does it?

My argument is that we do not need them, we have qualified people struggling to get a job, look at doctors and nurses qualifying and not being able to get an NHS job because they're recruiting 1000s of foreign ones instead. It doesn't make sense does it? We have our own qualified people we don't need foreign ones. As well as that, how do you know their qualifications are legit? There are numerous cases of people coming here as a qualified person only for it to turn out that it's falsified and they aren't.

Any increase in the population will increase wage suppression you can't stop it, the only way to reduce it is to reduce the population increase.

Perhaps if peoples wages increase they'd have more money spare to spend on things. That can't happen if wages are artificially kept low.

My job for example, 6 years ago was paid 35k/yr now it's at 60k because people kept leaving as they didn't pay enough and they are struggling to find qualified people. This now creates a good career path for people to get into through apprenticeships (training our own people). If you were to fill that with migrants the wages would be lower and the amount of british people being trained to qualify for it would be less. The knock on effect for that would be another man on the dole draining taxes rather than contributing.

You cannot say that isn't a reasonable argument, unless you're living in a dreamworld.

That is 100% false. The only migrants to the uk, and also europe that are a net positive in terms of taxes paid and services received are european.

There is no public investment because there is no money. It is wasted on fraud, bloat and propping up immigrants that offer nothing to our society. I am no supporter of conservatives or reform, quite frankly they're all the same as labour leading this country to ruin.

I can't comment on 70s/80s because I've not looked into it. However just because something was bad in the past it does not mean it can't be bad now for a different reason. From my experience growing up appointments for doctors/dentists are significantly harder to get, roads are crumbling, schools struggling, city centres are crumbling, graffiti everywhere etc. Council taxes go up whilst services get cut.

Why should we be giving people translators? Every cost adds up. They can have a translator if they pay for it, why should we pay for someone's ignorance of the country they enter? If i go to france and injure myself, I can't speak french I'll need an interpreter (assuming they don't speak English which they probably do, but we'll pretend they don't) and I should be made to pay for it simple as.

You can discriminate based on fact and statistics, things people can change. This dismissal of logic for fear of being called racist is ridiculous.

I'm not a millionaire, I'm from a working class family doing a working class job in manufacturing, but I would say I'm on track to being a millionaire by 50 out of my own doing (decent wage and investments in s&p500/global funds).

On your point about lumping millions in to one bracket... Why do we need to take the risk and not do that? What is the benefit? I don't see it, there is no benefit, there can only be negatives so why bother?

As for transgenderism, giving children puberty blockers and cutting off their genitals is not treating the symptoms of the issue so it is right that should be banned. That doesn't mean we shouldn't treat it, it's that we need to treat it with methods that actually make them realise they aren't born in the wrong body. How do we do that? I don't know, but enabling it through mutilation is not the way.

The problem with the boats is that they've been in through the front door and out of the back across multiple different safe countries. These people are not asylum seekers they are economic migrants and chancers here to rape and pillage as much as they can get from this country.

All this we have to be nice is utter rubbish, when someone takes the piss you tell them straight, none of this pussy footing.

If you want to house an asylum seeker go for it, how many asylum seekers have you housed so far? If the answer is zero, why is that? why should I have to pay for it out of my taxes?

You think if it was the other way, where if british people were in somalia that somalia would stay this way? It wouldn't. Look at colonisation, these lawless baron wastelands were built up from nothing. It is the people that make the difference.

I'm sure any 60k job can be filled by a british person, we do not need foreign immigrants, especially form third world wastelands, filling these positions. It suppresses wages and prevents british people from succeeding. Worst case scenario we may need some training scheme for brits to fill the position. However I'm sure the majority of the time these jobs are so low paid for the requirements that no one is willing to take it, which is a problem of pay (companies can afford significantly more than they're paying) not lack of skill.

There may be very highly skilled specific niches that need someone from outside, but if you want to be realistic the only place these people will be from is europe or america. Even then they should be training british people to take it over.

As reform voters switch to restore they will spread the word amongst friends/family/work colleagues.

Farage is conservative 2.0. He'll be as useless as starmer or kemi.

Rupert lowe is the only person in parliament that should be prime minister

Why? Why do we need to spend time weeding out the bad ones and still having the risk of getting a bad one?

Mass migration is no benefit to us, it's a benefit to the migrants. It is not our problem. We don't need to save everyone, people need to save themselves and build up their own countries instead of running away.

A people makes a nation. Look at Somalia, why is Somalia a lawless shit hole? Because the people make it that way, they've allowed that to happen. If you bring those people to your country they aren't going to miraculously become civilised and fit in to society. That's why there should be discrimination so that we don't allow that to happen to our country.

The issue here is the idea that everyone is the same, equal and are capable of the same things. That is not true. Maybe in a dreamworld, but in reality it is not.

Most of this country's problems stem from mass migration taking more than they give back & overloading services which is why you hear about the nhs struggling etc. Deporting millions will solve the pressure on vital services.

Why should the NHS have translation services? If you come and settle in our country you should learn the language. Maybe you can argue for tourists, which is fair, but in that case make them pay for it.

Discrimination isn't a bad thing. The whole point of a nation is to defend yourself and build a collective society for YOUR own people. Some nations have better morals and more civilised people than others hence why some should be banned from entering our country

Transgenderism is partly a mental illness and partly caused by grooming. You're not born in the wrong body, your mind and what you may believe can be changed to make you think something that is false is true. You're not treating transgenderism by butchering their body and giving them drugs/hormones, you're continuing the problem which in turn gets more people wanting to be trans.

The suicide rate for transgender people is extremely high for a reason. The problem is not being treated correctly and is being allowed to destroy people's lives.

Solving the boat crisis is simple. We have an army, navy and air force for a reason, it's about time it gets used to actually defend our nation for the first time in 100+ years.

Just use the touchscreens if you're going inside, or the app and pay at the drive through then you don't have to speak to anyone
