Refugees: Gary Lineker destroys troll and it's wonderful

As you will probably already know the BBC attempted to sack/silence etc etc Gary Lineker from the BBC, but after a strike by his co-presenters he is back presenting Match of the Day.

A refugee who Lineker housed told The Mirror how much he loved living with Gary.

Gary tweeted the article and wrote: ‘Ah Rasheed, how sweet of you.”

Someone called Christine replied with: “The ‘refugee’ was a fully vetted law student. GL is good at pulling the wool.”

The 'refugee' was a fully vetted law student. GL is good at pulling the wool.

Dear Christine

I am unclear what point you are attempting to make. But I suspect this tweet isn’t the winner you think it is. I am sure the law student can assist you to do better

Yours Sincerely
A well meaning friend ❤️

Wait till you find out some of them are doctors, lawyers, surgeons. Capable of contributing way more than you do. Can we not swap? See how you like it where they come from?

You can be a ‘refugee’ (no idea why you’ve used inverted commas) & come from any walk of life. You can be a barrister or a bin man. Being a refugee is not a dirty word, it doesn’t automatically equate to being a criminal or rapist or conman, they’re not all out to leech off us.

Christine learns a refugee was a highly-educated law-abiding person and thinks this is somehow an own of Gary Lineker rather than a reason we should be bringing more refugees in and allowing them to work. https://t.co/NRPLR7qUQr

Gary’s last word

Here it is, he tweeted: “All refugees that are granted asylum are fully vetted. You can’t host them until they are.”

This response might speak to you…

“If you like refugees so much, why don’t you let one live with you, eh??”

Gary Lineker: “I did/do”

“Yeah but…that’s a vetted one”

Gary Lineker: “Yes, they have to be”

“Yeah but…”

“Yeah but…”

“Yeah but…”

“Yeah but…”
