However, Nigel was specifically talking about the situation
in the Mediterranean and those people are asylum seekers,

yes those are asylum seekers that will require resources in the UK.
Such as hpousing and medical care, even food. They aren;t that difernt from any other person currently in the UK from that point of view.
Asylum seekers, breathe they eat, they ****, they take up space sometimes called a footprint, so ignoring them isn't a good idea. Not counting them doesn;t mean they don;t exists.

I was only counting them. They are the ones who are fleeing persecution,
many from their own government, and who need the protection of another
country.


hence the only
ones relevant to this thread.

You mean on this thread, titled OT Immigration Nigel Farage.

Harry's choice of title is misleading. The video link is Nigel blaming
the situation in the Med. on the bombing of Libya, although, in fact,
the largest numbers of those seeking asylum in the UK won't have come
from there.
