3/ Migrants from Muslim (and Black) nations have the highest rates of social housing, the lowest rates of employment, and generally occupy the lower end of tax contributions
2/ Derrick Peters lied about living in Grenfell and was put up at Kensington's Park Grand Hotel for free for 6 months.
During his stay, he was arrested for burglary but the judge let him off with community service, despite Peters' 40 previous convictions.
3/ Alvin Thompson claimed he helped people escape the building.
Thompson told doctors that he had recurring nightmares of seeing a small child at a window in the fire, flash backs to stepping over bodies and survivor's guilt.
First, anyone who claims the British looted $45tn immediately demonstrates that they haven't bothered to look into how the figure was ludicrously calculated.
2/ India's pre-colonial GDP was due to having a quarter of the world's population at a time when America, Australia, and most of Africa was in the stone-age.
However, Britain and much of Europe at the time had around double the GDP per capita.
3/ India was a top 5 economy throughout British rule, overtaking China.
India's had the 5th largest economy in 1945, above Japan/China/France.
India's economy fell as low as 17th in 1990, many years after independence, despite having second largest population in the world.
1/ A new working paper claims that non-EU migrants in Europe have a less negative fiscal position than natives - in other words, that they contribute more relative to what they receive.
Like every single one of these papers, the methodology is deeply misleading.
1/ You learn about these cases, then remember that the Home Office tried to deport a 7/7 bombing survivor and a man who can trace his British ancestry back to the 14th century.
This is the strange case of the deportation of Professor John Tulloch...
2/ Professor John Tulloch is a sociology professor who, after surviving the 7/7 terrorist attacks, was interviewed by newspapers such as The Guardian in 2007.
3/ Five years later, the Home Office and UK Border Agency (UKBA) seized his passport and demanded his deportation.
Why?
Because he was born in India during the British Raj, making him a "British subject without citizenship."
