Suella Braverman declares “…there are 100 million people around the world who could qualify for protection under our current laws. And let’s be clear: they are coming here…”
UK was 16th out of 28 of Euro countries destination of choice for asylum seekers per capita in 2021:
Germany took 190,000
France took 120,000
Spain took 62,000
Italy took 53,000
UK took 50,000March 11, 2023 at 1:10 am #241388alanjjohnstoneKeymasterGary Lineker taken off the BBC for his view on new refugee policy.
March 11, 2023 at 10:48 am #241421alanjjohnstoneKeymasterThe BBC didn’t expect such a show of sympathy and solidarity with a sports presenter’s suspension over his tweet comparing Braverman’s language to 1930 Nazis.
Will the sentiment spread generally in condemning the draconian and illegal acts of the Tories to deport (genuine or not)refugees,

March 12, 2023 at 11:35 am #241467alanjjohnstoneKeymaster68% of Britons believe the fact that the UK has taken in more than 150,000 refugees from Ukraine is a good thing and only 17% think it is a bad thing.
88% of people who took in refugees from Ukraine would do so again, compared with 3% who would not.
Many hosts were willing to support guests from other countries.
Seven in 10 of hosts ready to house a refugee again saying they are open to supporting either an Afghan or Ukrainian refugee.
Three in 10 hosts saying they would support an Afghan refugee currently in hotel accommodation across the country.
March 12, 2023 at 3:58 pm #241482rodshawParticipantThe BBC tries to be so pally with its viewers and spends a lot of airtime vaunting itself and its wonderful programmes. And yet is there any clearer example than the Lineker fiasco that it is an organ of the state, implicitly supporting the government’s dreadful policy? It dresses up acts of censorship and gagging with its line of supposedly being impartial and all-embracing. And all the while at least one of its top nobs is publicly donating to the tories.

March 19, 2023 at 5:51 am #241640alanjjohnstoneKeymasterThe Ministry of Defence has apologised after an investigation found Afghan applicants to a resettlement scheme were told they could only come to the UK if their documents were approved by the Taliban.
The UK government promised to resettle up to 20,000 eligible Afghans – including 5,000 in the first year – but has been criticised for delays in the process.
While 11,212 people were resettled in Britain under Arap, the number of admittances fell in late 2021, after the Taliban took over Afghanistan.
According to Home Office data, more than 6,200 Afghans were relocated under Arap between July and September 2021. This dropped to 732 in the last quarter of 2021. One year on, only 743 were admitted in the last quarter of 2022.
As for ACRS, only 22 Afghans eligible under the scheme’s second pathway – designed for vulnerable fleeing refugees referred by the United Nations high commissioner for refugees – were resettled by the end of December.

Under the new rules, people seeking asylum can be detained for 28 days without the right to access a lawyer or apply for bail.
Terrorism suspects can only be detained for 14 days.

What is this government, Braverman on?
She says the high court found Rwanda safe?
It has to be said she sounds more like Churchill with his: wailing Jews in Nazi concentration death camps.
I don’t wish my enemies harm…..I’m seriously beginning to think that the knife attack and murder of Tory MP* karma….what goes around comes around. As with Trotsky you play with fire
