I TOTALLY agree with correspondent Ian Greenhalgh.

We have got involved in wars which have caused more problems than solutions.

I remember my mother saying that we always have to stick out oar in, and this was more than forty year ago.

For decades we have had refugees coming here, a country that has been overpopulated for as long or longer.

Of course the people of these troubled countries have never stood up to those responsible — their leaders. If others get involved, the situation is further inflamed.

During the war many came here to escape Hitler. Had Hitler won the war and occupied our country, where would we go?

Would Sweden have had us? Had we lost, would Hitler have allowed Sweden to remain neutral?
