The situation might be complex, but that changes nothing. Putin will only be able to weaponise these things if we allow weak border controls and showcase that people who arrive get more free stuff than the poorest here in the UK.
I do not want riots. I live in an area where there was some trouble last year. But rest assured calling people names, then ignoring valid complaints about the levels of immigration to areas like mine, will not prevent unrest. I know how people feel, and when mild mannered grandma rages because her new neighbours get treated better than she does, you've got a major problem in the country.
We need to take it seriously. It's not about race, it's not about religion, it's about what is fair.
And right now, we have an unfair system for those who worked and paid into the system, then get told their pension is unsustainable.
