For Whom the Bell Tolls

Fifteen British soldiers have been killed in Afghanistan these past ten days.(The wounded hardly get a mention.....)
Contrast this with the every (work-)day battle that goes on at the Immigration Offices in Croydon, and elsewhere.
The story so far......
The Conservatives failed to keep their 1979 election promise to end the concession whereby foreign men can live and work in the UK through marriage.
One reason they didn't is because the European Commission of Human Rights determined in favour of three women whose husbands were not allowed to live in the UK.
That was 12 May 1982, when the Falklands Conflict was at its height. 255 British servicemen died (a similar number has, apparently, subsequently committed suicide).
Then as now, while British servicemen are being killed and wounded, foreign and Commonwealth men are being allowed to occupy these islands.
The reason the European Commission of Human Rights was established was to prevent a repitition of some of the atrocities of the Second World War. Therefore, the last thing it should do is enable people from outside Europe to take up permanent residence in member states.
A basic tenet behind the concept of "rights" is Equality.
But, there is no Equality between British servicemen and foreigners occupying the UK. Nor with the army - an army arraigned against native British men - of people employed on large salaries in the Equality industry.
