"We will keep going until we reach our saturation point, because what does it matter if we have to wait another week for a hospital visit or if our class sizes are slightly bigger or if our city is slightly fuller? What does it matter if things are slightly more challenging, if we have to pay a little bit more into the system? Surely it is worth it to see those lives being restored again?"
British Labour MP Rachael Maskell said this to a pro-refugee rally in York in September 2015, arguing that the government's pledge to take 20,000 refugees was not enough.
She is right that class sizes and waits to go to hospital don't matter compared to saving people but what does matter is saving her country from becoming another country, from invasion.
Countries are not based on values at least not in the Old World.
They are based on blood and history and to a considerable extent religion.
'Americans use the word nation in the European sense in the phrase Cherokee nation etc.' Discuss.
Luckily rich countries can help asylum seekers by paying countries to which we give aid money to accept them in.
This is something I am very sorry that King Charles III was reported to have said was "appalling". Defending the realm is the first duty of monarchs.
