Youe really are upset mate. But history teaches that revenge is a poor basis for action - how many people would you kill to feel better?
Think he wants a billion or two.

Wonder would that include the Chinese people who live down the street from me ? The Hong Kong Chinese who I go to mass with every Sunday ? or is it a "Any chinky will do" type effort ?

Wonder can all the old British Empire countries take a similar view on the deaths from the British Empire? Lets see island of Ireland population was 8.3 Million in 1841 but even that was believed to be an undercount by 1 million, by 1851 population was 6.6 million and allowing for births with a fertility rate of circa 4.2 then population decline is really close to 4 million people in 10 years. Well 5 years really as famine was from 1846 but 1831-41 population was growing at 3% annually hence real figure is close to 5 million. Population of Island of Ireland now is 6.6 million................. still less than it was in 1821.

What about India and the other places as well ?

Likely 50,000 will die in the UK, many of those wil be because UK Govt refused to take the issue seriously, did not have the correct equipment and also complete incomptence in the way they have acted but hey it is easy to want to start a war somewhere else.

Amazing all those Brexiteers are not talking about immigrants now because the NHS and Food Industries are reliant on them 25% of NHS doctors are immigrants. In total 1 in 8 working in NHS are migrants. At Food industry basic roles it is circa 80%.
