Scottish Leader: Using Mass Migration to Grow Population ‘Most Important National Challenge’
Breitbart ^ | January 16, 2018 | Virginia Hale

Posted on 01/16/2018 10:47:42 AM PST by C19fan

First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has announced the government is working to change the narrative around migration to persuade Scots that the nation needs huge numbers of people from abroad. Speaking at the launch of a Scottish government paper which argues for continuing open borders with Europe after Britain’s exit from the European Union (EU), the SNP leader claimed a population that is ever-expanding as a result of mass migration is “essential to our economic prosperity”.

SNP suppose to stand for Scottish Nationalist Party. What happened to the Nationalist part? Let us have an independent Scotland no longer inhabited by native Scots.

You know, they could grow their own citizens by making abortion illegal again.

Something fishy about that, Nicola! Why don’t you just make it easier for Scots to reproduce? reduce taxes on people who are working. Keep the invaders out - you are paying them to come in, to have kids, and to expand, just so they will vote for you.

Our Scottish, Irish and British Cousins are committing demographic PC suicide for their children and grand kids.

They continue to abort their unborn children and open their doors to the Jihadist Hordes from Africa.

How has that worked out in London?

In UK, Hundreds of Mosques Opened, Churches Closed!

Apr 3, 2017 - LONDON (ChurchMilitant.com) - A new report shows hundreds of churches have closed in London while almost the same number of mosques have ... least 500 churches have been shuttered in recent years, many converted to private homes or bars, while the city has seen the cropping up of 423 mosques, ...

Tell them that those immigrants from England and Ireland will be given top priority.

Uh oh, fightin’ words....

Privatize retirement (as in retirement investment vehicles like USA’s 401k/403b/IRA/etc) instead of relying on more working age people that the government can take from to ‘give’ as benefits. A stable or a slow and steady shrinking population shouldn’t be a problem as long as you are not messed up by a gov’t ponzi scheme.

Mosque development around the world is foreign funded. Billions and billions of dollars in the hands of Islamists.

Osama bin Laden was a billionaire. So was Yassir Arafat.

And then there are all of those princes and the House of Saud...

Where are the billionaire Christians building missions and colonies in the West?

Scotland have such a unique culture with their Kilts and bagpipes. They wish to replace their culture with a bunch of unoriginal burka wearing Muslims.

Blather. Same ole crap in the USA. First they tell us that there’s a population bomb, and we need to only have 2 kids to avoid living in a third world H3ll hole.

Then, they tell us our population isn’t growing enough and we need more immigrants-especially those likely to fall for socialist schemes.

The US doesn’t need Global Trade - we have enough people to provide a good market and support a lot of manufacturing. Whoever comes here needs to aspire to be part of the melting pot, and not contribute to further Balkanazation.

Interesting trick - would really like to know how importing illiterate, unskilled, culturally incompatible and barbaric population will lead to anything positive, unless growth in prison construction, courts and police are viewed as positive.

They could even structure their taxes so that there were financial incentives to raise more children by choice. That would be a lot cheaper and more effective than importing savages, thugs, and welfare bums.

Perhaps they could get some people from Humberside and Cleveland, English counties to the south.

Maybe some Norwegians too?

With Scotland’s unemployment rate already at 7.2 per cent, a little lower than the UK rate of 7.6 per cent. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon states the nation needs huge numbers of people from abroad. That way they can be the most unemployed citizenry of the UK.

When the last wave, of Indians, Chinese, Koreans, ect came, they came well equipped to gain the education to take on meaningful jobs that would actually result in a contribution to the tax base.

Is this fellow even aware how uneducated and prone to living on welfare these “immigrants” will be?
