    London iPhone Queue



    OK immigration is seriously out of control.

    Has Apple opened a Sangatte?

    If you want a graphic illustration of how unfettered immigration has changed the demographic make-up of Britain, look no further than the picture in Saturday’s Mail of the crowd waiting for the Apple store in London to open.

    It looks like the queue for the lorries at Sangatte. There’s even a bloke wrapped in a blanket. I shan’t speculate as to how they can all afford £599 for a new iPhone, although apparently some of them were paid by others to queue up.

    Plenty of readers did a double-take, even those who live in our multi-culti capital city.

    No doubt the usual suspects will howl ‘racism’, but it is remarkable that the only white face belongs to a blonde bird in a hi-viz jacket.

    And she’s probably Polish.

    Good old Daily Mail - They probably sent a hack specially down to the Southall branch of the Apple Store.

    (Mind you, I agree that immigration is out of control.)

      It's not just the Daily Mail, it's Richard Littlejohn in the Daily Mail. A nastier combination is hard to imagine

        Could they not find the AppleStore in ChinaTown, or are pictures of Oriental people deemed less offensive?

          Its a picture showing a queue for a generic device which shows 99.9% of people in the queue are asian, in a country with allegedly 8% ethnic minorities.

          Its a fact, you can like it or not but you can't dispute it.

            I must admit I was surprised when I found a similar picture which I believe mudskipper found was the IPad release...

                Yep, looks like Covent Garden to me.

                  Don't think it was me - I normally avoid immigration discussions as my logic wrestles with my inner leftie.
