Hostile Environment
a tongue in cheek piece (with a serious message on the dumbing down of our society) about current Govt. policy to mark REFUGEE WEEK.....
Hostile environment
Our Governments created a hostile environment
Because of the alien invasion
They say it’s to protect
The future of our nation
They’re limiting the gene pool
So we all end up thick
Which allows the corrupt ministers
To do a “get rich quick”.
So instead of watching Big Brother
Or the real housewives of Brum
Invite round an exotic neighbour
And have some erotic fun.
Our country needs hybrid vigour
To maximise IQs
So your bright and beautiful children
Will recognise “fake news”.
It’s time to start a fight back
Don’t accept the status quo
These narrow minded fascist bigots
Their vile policies really need to go!

Thank you to all who responded to this piece.This is both a complex and touchy issue....particularly in the current environment of austerity, which is increasing social isolation and reducing community cohesion according to academic experts.
My personal take on it is that we don't have a migrant crisis, we have a climate crisis (fuelled in part by our Govt's policies on use of fossil fuels in preference to renewable energy) which is devastating the global south and making large areas uninhabitable. We have a crisis of war - many of which the UK is playing an active part in, which is displacing people from their homes (ie Syria), we have a crisis of exploitation....as a country we have exploited our colonies and in fact a lot of the world, leaving behind a trail of destruction and displacement. The UKs trade deals have created poverty around the globe - we need to separate trade from aid or we will go on economically pillaging countries in the global south. I have spent 2 years working with asylum seekers and refugees and I have yet to come across anyone who would not choose to return to their country of birth if it were safe to do so. The British weather alone is enough to put people off staying!
