15 families have arrived on the tiny island of Bute, off the West of Scotland
Scottish minister Humza Yousaf said their arrival was a 'proud day', adding: 'I would like to extend the warmest of welcomes on behalf of the people of Scotland, and wish them all the best as they start their new lives here.'
For her part, Home Secretary Theresa May tried to reassure locals by saying all arrivals would be screened to ensure they did not pose a security threat, amid fears that some would-be terrorists who have travelled to Britain posing as refugees.
Indeed, in September, a Lebanese minister, Elias Bou Saab, told Mr Cameron that two people out of every 100 in his country's refugee camps were IS radicals planning to infiltrate Europe.
The debate is compounded by that fact that while the red carpet has been rolled out for the refugees and much money spent on them, the council (which is dominated by the Scottish National Party) has ordered 'austerity' cuts.
Hundreds of jobs are threatened and a wide range of public services are at risk as the council tries to save £18 million over two years. School-crossing patrols and library services could be cut under a 'Service Choices' programmes, as well as teaching assistants, bin removals and street cleaning. Even Rothesay's Christmas lights may not be affordable and not switched on next year.
Yet the Syrians have been given free homes with new kitchens, carpets and washing machines.
Although this is one of the most impoverished parts of the UK, the Home Office says each adult migrant is eligible for £200 emergency cash to tide them over until they are given National Insurance numbers which will entitle them to claim state benefits.

What, don’t the Scots have vermin— that they have to import them?.
“Scottish minister Humza Yousaf”
Says it all. The weird hard leftist country of Scotland. They have created this mess as much as anyone.
Scottish minister Humza Yousaf....

I wonder what that clan’s tartan looks like....
Way to save money, you thrift Scots - while spending the money you do no have on people who do not appreciate the expenses ... and very likely will try to convert you, or make you a dhimmi, or just kill you out of frustration over your total lack of doing what they tell you to do.
Let's send ours to Attu.
1. Any Scot worth a sh*t left at a minimum two generations ago and headed for Australia, Canada or the US.
2. The rise in church attendance as a result of this influx of Muslims will be... unmeasurable.
3. The idea of conservative politics is negligible. There is no Tory party presence, or anything remotely approaching what Adam Smith would recognize as capitalist.
Scotland gets what it deserves. Newton wrote every action creates an equal and opposite reaction. That’s the best you can hope for. Sadly.
Sounds familiar to what goes on here in the US. The “refugees” with their iPhones and nice clothes are given nicer living conditions and free stuff than the locals can afford, there is a code of silence with the enforcers so that the locals don’t know what going on, and dissent is called “racism”.
Check, check, check.
And SOMEONE is profiting nicely from the payments to take them.
I just spent a good ten minutes struggling with this clue: “Scottish island with peculiar trait, as characteristic”.
If I had been reading FR instead, I probably would have seen the answer instantly (it’s ‘attribute’).
Not even the vermin want to live in Scotland!...says this Scot...
There are places in Scotland where colour has not been invented, where black, white and gray are all that exists.
In Scotland the rain disobeys the laws of Thermodynamics and remains a liquid at sub zero temperatures because it can better make people miserable that way.
Certain portions of this rant brought to you be courtesy of Liberal wacko and Scottish immigrant Mark Day on YouTube.
Doesn't make them any less true.
Look up Billy Connolly's rant on the fellow at Glasgow International Airport that stopped a bunch of Jihaddis by merely kicking the snot out of them.
Sadly, i must agree with you. My family came here in 1937. It is tragic that the English killed off the best of the Scots in over 400 years of warfare. All that is left is the scum.

Wait, what? What clan does he belong to?
