After a violent protest occurred outside a Merseyside hotel housing migrants last week, Sangita Myska challenged this caller who said he wants 'absolutely zero refugees and asylum seekers in Britain - ever'.

As a British person, I can confirm I'm part of the one third that doesn't want to live in Britain.

[MrA]

As someone born in the UK I feel a lot of people think like this bloke that the UK is the greatest place on the planet and everyone in the world wishes they lived there. Having moved to Australia 18 months ago I can see a massive difference in living standards and the UK only seems to be getting worse.

Can someone ask these people who's going to pay your pensions when the baby boomers retire? I'm an ex-pat living in Canada and have no desire to return to live in the UK. I have 2 uncles buried in North Africa fighting with the British Army against the Italians in what is now Libya, yet, while I grew up in the UK I was always reminded that I was a "foreigner". I believed that the issue was generational and when the younger folks grew up this "superiority complex" would end. Clearly I was mistaken and, if anything, Britain is more polarised than it has ever been. I wish all my friends well and pray that you get out of this apparent mess.

Nick is suffering from the delusion that this country is still one of the most desirable and prosperous places to live, when that hasn't been the case for years

What we learnt here, is that just because someone sounds educated it doesn't mean they are intelligent.

[nickhamil]

This is very worrying, the bloke sounds quite intelligent till you listen to what he's saying.
This country is in deep trouble, people are looking for someone to blame for this mess we're in.

Nick "2/3 of the world wants to come here"
Sangita: "So 1.3 billion Chinese want to come here?"
Nick:"Let's stop bickering about who wants to come here"

[mattarnold]

The sad thing is, you could talk through slowly all the evidence to disprove the caller and they’d still hang on to their frightened opinion… It’s genuinely sad really.

[andylane]

We warned our kids about violent video games. Perhaps we should have warned our parents about reading the daily mail...

[junior]

Hahahahahahaha!!!
He came up with his own facts and got really upset because she made him realise how ridiculous it sounded.

[claudettejones]

I think 2 thirds of Brits would secretly love to leave the sinking ship.

[Blorp_]

This bloke is the embodiment of pub politics

[royw-g]

So many EU citizens have gone home since Brexit, a lot of them in vital public service jobs.

[Glugskiclumfum]

This is the first time I've listened to Sangita. It won't be the last... Brilliant!

[mistervo]

People like Nick is how Brexit happened.

[RaxLakhani]

I've become a huge fan of Sangita's show over the past few months. Her background in journalism allows her to use hard facts to support her arguments.

[Kevinacharles]

The scary thing is this man could pass for an intelligent person.

[alan-xx]

Love the way he makes things up and gets upset when he's challenged for lying.

[aliciamuir]

Nobody tell him that 4/5 asylum seekers stay in the region of the nation from which they were displaced.

[alwhyte]

"The social services of the world"? The worst social services in Europe, the worst benefits in Europe, taking in the lowest volume of asylum claimants in Europe. Okay then Nick.
