Meanwhile, in South Africa...

They're busy killing illegals in South Africa. The BBC goes all out to emphasize that this is "xenophobia", trying desperately to get everyone to associate such behaviour with ignorance and unreason, hoping that the scorn of Europeans will suffice to shame Africans into submission. Of course, there's absolutely nothing "xenophobic" about this. Nothing "phobic", even. It's a completely rational, self-interested reaction. This is an example of the poor having an inconvenient amount of education. They know enough economics to understand that open borders keep the labour market effectively bottomless, so that even if they're able to get jobs, they have no leverage to insist on better pay or working conditions. That's what fuels this. And, of course, there's no ready solution, since an open labour market is at the heart of the globalist economic agenda.
