There’s a lot of fucking morons around at the moment, let’s be fair. They’ve always been around, but following a tragedy they seem to shamelessly out themselves, don’t they? Facebook and Twitter have been filled with political ‘experts’ offering their ‘get dem out of r cuntry’ knowledge bombs for a few days now, and to accompany such ill-thought out drivel there’s an official ‘Close UK Borders’ petition to sign.

If it’s what you believe in, it’s all well and good. Only, the woman behind the petition only lives in the UK for half the year, the rest of the time she lives over in Spain. How very patriotic.
Tina Reeves spoke with Russia Today, from her second home in Jaén, a city in southern Spain, and it didn’t go unnoticed. She said she’d bought the house over there because ‘it was cheap, and it’s a massive place’. What a moron. For somebody to start such a bold campaign, you’d at least expect her to live in the UK full time, instead of taking advantage of the economic market of Spain.
@ChrisDYork I spend around 50% not continuously because I have a house for sale here. The remainder I spend at my home in Plymouth

Responding to critics, she said:
I don’t think there is hypocrisy. I worked in Spain initially, many years ago, before it joined the EU, and I didn’t need open borders to allow me in. To the Spanish government I would be an immigrant but not to my friends or children. I can’t see the argument. If it turned out I couldn’t come to Spain and do what I’m doing because they began a closed borders policy then I would accept that at this time because I think we are living in a very dangerous time.
@rivermagic123 Thank you. Even if I did live in Spain permanently I still don’t see what the problem would be. I am a British citizen.

The petition has almost half a million signatures at the minute, and it’s mission statement says:
In February 2015 Dr Shea, Nato’s Deputy Assistant Secretary General for Emerging Security Challenges, warned there would be IS jihadists on the refugee boats. IS also threatened to flood Europe with 500,000 jihadists.
Allowing uncontrolled immigration and taking in these refugees potentially endangers the entire UK population. At any other time in our history this would be tantamount to a declaration of war and borders would be closed.
The petition itself is neither here nor there, really. It’s the ludicrous hypocrisy of its organiser that’s so funny. It’s like something Chris Morris would make up. Only real. Not only is the woman daft enough to think that closing the border off to immigrants is the answer, but she lives in another country. As an immigrant. My neck hurts from shaking my head.
My name is not on the petition. It is however, on this one.
