Barking Moonbat Candidate

Rachael, from England, and her website "Smells Like Teen Armpits" vie for the honor of initial inclusion in the Barking Moonbat link category.
I haven't quite decided yet, but have a look for yourself.

Now, if our buds in England had French folk coming into the UK by the thousands to stay, find jobs, and establish beachheads of French culture in the British Isles I have little doubt that Rachael would change her tune in about 5/10ths of a second.
The US border controversy isn't about keeping people out. It's about having an idea who's coming in and having the capability of controlling who comes in.
England is far pickier about immigration and visitors than is the United States; Rachael needs to redirect her indignation and go fight for the right of Iranians and Palestinians to settle in London--hopefully right next to her flat.

Update:
For what it's worth:
While we appreciate the valuable contribution that many earlier immigrants have made, we believe that the numbers have now become too great. Foreign immigration has reached 342,000 [is that a lot? --bww] a year, far higher than at any time in our history.

Our concern is widely shared by the public. According to recent polls, immigration is rated second only to crime as the most important issue facing Britain today and 76% want to see an annual limit imposed. (source)
