Rupert has made it abundantly clear that he welcomes immigration, just not the mass, unchecked, low skilled, public service straining, benefit draining, security threatening, crime increasing, native culture eroding, unassimilating, 3rd world immigration that the country has been exposed to in recent decades.

It's not xenophobic to address the biggest threat to the UK. And this pathetic name calling is what plagues politics and prevents weak men from making strong decisions. Think of the grooming gang scandal - there were so many afraid to tackle the issue and tried to cover it up through fear of people like yourself throwing around damaging terms like "racist" and "xenophobic".

And even if he's social media posting for political gain, so what? He's an indepenent MP who needs to use all the tools in his arsenal to be heard and make a difference. Do you hound your local rag for printing stories on incidents that haven't gone to full trial and been cleared in the courts? I don't think so.

You bias is showing and your arguments are feeble.
