The previous government were looking at Rwanda, but this mob canned it. Apart from the purportedly legal mass migration, there are at least 50,000 illegals (almost all the "religion of peace" and young, fighting age men) arriving per year and being put up in 4 star hotels.

Does that mean the UK is off your "move to" list? ;)
 
I saw this petition on X recently, wow that's actually a pretty big number.

Fair. But there are concurrent rumblings going on, rumours of a leadership challenge, #raisethecolours and widespread hotel protests.

IMO there is probably Buckley's chance of an early GE unless something big happens, but wouldn't be surprised to see Starmer punted.
 
Good to see Brexit stopping high rates of foreigners entering the UK

And that's the point. With Brexit the UK has the wherewithal to cancel treaties, tell the ECHR to go f''' themselves, stop illegal immigration and trim legal immigration to reasonable levels.

But they didn't do that, the govt and the bureaucracy betrayed their constituents.

The govt can still do these things if it has the will, but it it controlled by the ideological poison of leftism and the malintent of its minions.

This is why everything it about to blow the @#$& up.

...and probably coming to a pockmarked South sea, nation near you.

Not so easy for the UK to stop illegals, just a short trip from France.

Maybe put 50% tariffs on all European goods if they don't co-operate. :smuggrin:
 
The problem with putting 50% tariffs on EU goods will come back to bitem in the posterior.
They do a lot of trade with EU, going both way.

Human respond to incentives. If you escort then to plush hotels, give them food, money, a phone, free health care etc, you will encourage more to come.

If you put them in cold, uncomfortable camps with no benefits, they will soon stop coming.

I mean dammit, the Brits discouraged the Nazis from invading, there is just some other agenda.

The desire not to appear to be a$$holes to the rest of the world?

Maybe as far as other countries you want to sell stuff to.

Other countries do it. The US most recently, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and others, even us (Aus is just pumping legal migration to absurd levels).

Interestingly, the penalty for illegal immigration to most of the countries they are coming from is very severe, up to and including death.
 
Angela Rayner, the deputy prime totalitarian has just resigned caught out for tax dodging.

 
It's getting stitched up for "mortgage fraud" the new digging up old tweets and Facebook posts to take down politicians???
