London Is Europe’s Tuberculosis Capital, But Guess What Everyone’s Forgetting To Mention… Migration

How lovely it was to flick on my television to see Emma Thompson, the star of Saving Mr Banks, Harry Potter, and Love Actually. If I’m honest we all know Ms. Thompson’s movie star stuff is just a little bit of a hobby. Her calling in life is to save the world, obviously.
A member of the Labour Party and supporter of radical
left-wing leader Jeremy Corbyn, Ms. Thompson is single-handedly going to
take down evil capitalism with her eco-warrior work with Greenpeace.
She’s also fighting that nasty Israel place by actively supporting those
feminists and LGBT activists in Hezbollah and Hamas. Yes, she’s
involved with the Palestine Solidarity Campaign.
Emma Thompson even popped-up during the summer’s migration news cycle — now eclipsed in the minds of TV producers by lottery winners and dead celebrities — to remind us that we are all racist not taking in more migrants.
Emma Thompson calls UK “racist” for not taking
more refugees. She’s worth $64m. Why doesn’t she build houses for them
in her garden? Racist.

She said in an interview with BBC Newsnight: “We’re not
even missing our quotas. That’s really shaming. So I think it’s got a
lot to do with racism. If these people were white, European, that were
coming from some dictatorship in Bosnia… I think we would feel quite
differently about it.”
Knowing what a good egg Emma Thompson is, I was relieved
to see her doing the media rounds on Wednesday in her new salvation role
as London Mayor Boris Johnson’s ‘Ambassador for Tuberculosis (TB)’.
Ms. Thompson’s Ambassadorship comes on the back of the news that London is the TB capital of Europe.
2014 saw 2,500 new cases in the 611 square miles of the city
boundaries. London’s TB rate is higher than most nations’ totals. I
don’t just mean countries like America or Germany. I mean that parts of
London have TB rates higher than nations like Rwanda, Iraq, and Algeria.
If the UK really wants to tackle TB we need to start to
looking at the reasons why a disease which was considered to be almost
eradicated here in the 1970s is now back. The problem is we are not
permitted to state the real reason behind this TB outbreak, so I will
just whisper it to you: ‘uncontrolled migration’.
The Migration Observatory at the University of Oxford notes:
While reactivation of latent Tuberculosis has been identified as a significant factor, this also highlights the possible importance of other contributory factors, such as low income and poor living conditions in the UK, especially documented among recent migrants – for example, poor nutrition, sub-standard and overcrowded housing in areas of deprivation where many newly-arrived migrants live.…There is evidence that the highest rates of TB among migrants occur among people who are recent arrivals in the UK, possibly reflecting prevalence rates in countries of origin, but less than a half are diagnosed within five years of arrival.
Yes, you read that right. ACTUAL SCIENTISTS have said the
reason why London has a TB outbreak is migration. Obviously this means
they’re racist scumbags. And I’m a racist scumbag for quoting them. If
you tell Emma Thompson, I’m sure she will verify my racist scumbag
status.
And Dr Onkar Sahota, the chair of the London Assembly
Health Committee is obviously a white supremacist, racist scumbag too.
Just look at her name!
She said: “There is a clear link between TB and migration”
and found that 80 per cent of TB sufferers in London were born abroad.
It’s obvious that TB was reintroduced to London by the
UK’s open door migration policy. Just look at Romania. It has
one-quarter of all TB cases in the EU and European Economic Area, even
though it has just under 4 per cent of the area’s total population. Due
to Romania being in the EU, Romanians can travel to and live in the UK
without any checks.
But don’t stop with racist scumbags like Dr Sahota. What
about that notorious National Front sympathiser (no evidence of course
but he DEFINITELY is!) Professor Alimuddin Zumla, of the University College London. He estimated Romania had 30,000 to 35,000 TB suffers, with 1,000 of them with the horrifying multi-drug resistant strain which has a mortality rate of up to 80 per cent.
It was believed many of the Romanians infected with TB
were undiagnosed. And the country’s problem became ours when we opened
our borders to Romania on January 1st 2014. But don’t worry. There was
no major rush on January 1st from Romania. So the media stopped paying
attention, and even mocked those who worried about how many people would
come to the UK. And then this happened. See here for more.
Our open door to mass migration has become a back door for near eradicated disease.
Opponents to this will point out even if 80 per cent of
all TB suffers are non-British born, they may not have been infected by
TB until two to three years after they came to London. But where are
they picking up TB in London? Tuberculosis is normally found in people
in poverty, those who are sleeping rough or in poor quality, overcrowded
homes with unsanitary conditions. The perfect breeding ground for TB
are the ghettoised conditions that a significant number of migrants to
Britain live in.
British hostels are at breaking point due to migration. Breitbart London reported
last year that 36 per cent of London’s rough sleepers came from
European countries. The sad choice faced by many migrants is to either
sleep rough, or head to a slum-like accommodation.
A police raid in London last October found fifty migrants
crammed into four, two-bedroom terraced houses. This may be the sharp
end of the stick, but crowded conditions are unfortunately not rare.
These slums existence is due to migration as there isn’t the housing to
accommodate the mass of people now living in London.
The hard truth is if we are really going to be
compassionate to migrants and to stamp out TB, we need to have proper
controls on migration, and proper targeting of UK aid. We shouldn’t be
helping spread the disease back around the world because our
post-colonial consciences tell us to throw open our borders. And we
shouldn’t be confining people to ghettos to contract diseases and die.
But then again I would say that. I’m just a racist scumbag.
