But you voted for remain and continued mass immigration to the UK? Building all those new houses, hospitals, schools, roads, etc to cater for this influx of people and their offspring .... won't that affect climate change, the environment and wildlife then? -.-' I voted remain partly because I had an inkling that the UK government would say f*** climate change. f*** the environment and f*** wildlife.

But I'm also fairly certain that its futile to try to save humanity from itself. Mankind seems to be on a determined path to create its own nightmare cull.

There is a shocking sense of inevitability about it.

But by voting remain you and your fellow voters said fcuk climate change. Fcuk the environment and fcuk wildlife yourselves. The multitude of new houses and attendant infrastructure necessary to cater for the additional millions of immigrants and their offspring will rely upon the concreting over of green grass, removal of trees and shrubbery and destruction of the UK wildlife habitat pretty much. You need to rethink your priorities old chap. Up till now you've been supporting remain from the economic angle. If you truly care about climate change and wildlife you wouldn't want to see the UK turned into a concrete jungle would you? (please don't reconstitute the article that says only 5% of the UK is built on or whatever silly % it actually was... I will only counter it again with details of land where it is impossible to build)

(please don't reconstitute the article that says only 5% of the UK is built on or whatever silly % it actually was... I will only counter it again with details of land where it is impossible to build) I believe it is 11% of all land is considered to be built upon, or 3% if you strip out gardens and parks within those areas. But there is no question that environmental concerns were a legitimate reason to consider voting Remain. As Hrolf suggested the UK contribution to climate change is probably limited, but the EU as a combined bloc influenced by green policies could have had more impact (and indeed had greater negotiating impact in trying to encourage other territories to follow suit). Plus you are assuming that if that "uncontrolled immigration" didn't come here then those people would simply not exist if you think not letting them into the UK stops environment damage? They still exist. They still do 'environmental damage' whichever country they live in.

If they stay where they are we have savings on air pollution (mostly around Heathrow) and savings on diesel fuel polluting the sea/air if they travel by boat. By not coming here we are not forced to build homes and the infrastructure that supports them whereas their own countries already support their existence. Seems to me we are creating pollution and ruining the wildlife habitat of the UK by encouraging mass immigration?

I have to question your pollution around Heathrow is higher because of immigration remark.

[Link] Your remarks just go to show you are uncomfortable discussing anything to do with mathematics and logic.... Point 1 - Airlines schedule flights according to demand... they don't run them for the fun of it. Because of the higher and rising immigration experienced in these last 5 decades the Airlines have increased their flights to meet the demand... that is why Heathrow want another runway. Point 2 - You are being silly and reactive... point 1 above explains my logic perfectly with regard to immigrants. Tourists are another matter and the amount of unnecessary flying that a lot of people do these days having numerous overseas holidays does concern me yes... and our planet suffers from all the pollution as a result obviously. Please don't smugly dismiss my arguments when you don't understand them... my mathematical ability and logic is far superior to your own.... I have tried to get your brain to understand pensions in the past but you struggle with the concept. Stick to simple things that you understand.

You're starting to get irritating again and we are at the stage where I prefer to debate with others that don't employ your tactics and can accept at least some of what they read without resorting to repetition and other dodgy tricks. I'm off limits to you again I'm afraid before I end up spending hours going round in circles. You spoil it for everyone. Edited by Hoof Hearted (14 Apr 2017 10.57am)
