I am being thick, or is the solution to immigration not pretty simple?

 

If you enter illegally you will be deported instantly.

 

Genuine asylum seekers, and immigrants who want to work will go through the system and be welcomed.

 

Is that too ridiculous?

100% 🙏
I genuinely think a handful of bus  trips from Dover to the airport and straight onto the processing centre in Rwanda would have put the message out loud and clear, it would have clattered the boat crossing trade big time. Unfortunately many including the current government absolutely fought tooth and nail to stop it. And here we are 5000 illegals since the election  that we know of.

It’s obvious to me Dave, and to literally every single other person I know.

And, like you, I have a diverse mix of racial and religious mates.

 

Why can’t we just crack on and do the obvious thing?

Because of woke people with loud accusations of racism towards anyone who thinks this way sadly.

From what I've heard, or how I understand it (which might be misguided), you legally can't deport anyone without proving where they originated, so if they ditch all their ID and don't admit to where they come from in interview where can they be deported to.

 

Genuine ones that come through accepted channels either apply in their country of origin or are housed here without being able to work or integrate until the decision process is completed, a process which is woefully inadequate and takes an eternity.

And unfortunately that.

 

I watched an interview were Starmer basically said what Mr Bolam said, send them back, and I agree 100%. If they won't say where they came from then surely it's jail time breaking rocks for an eternity. Or sweeping the streets since that job seems to have disappeared and I think it needs bringing back.

You need an arrangement with the country you're sending people to. Can't legally just dump them in Calais. Labour are trying to make such an arrangement with the French. That would deter boat crossings imo. Coupled with a safe route option for people with a genuine reason to come to the UK. Such an option doesn't exist currently, hence the lure of the boats.

Intervention as one in four school starters in nappies

A charity says it wants to help families struggling with toilet training ahead of September.

We are doomed , wtf is going on in this country...25% of all parents are now too lazy to do the basics of parenting...I would have put a 1 in 10 figure on it but this is shocking. 

And why are the schools accepting them?  When my kids were at this age the school had a simple rule that kids had to be out of nappies.  Not complicated.

Vote labour < the caring, honest party! #politics https://lnkd.in/eZZkJPy5

I can just imagine Labours reaction if this had been a Tory decision, seems the old habits of secrecy we saw a lot of in the Blair/Mandleson era are still ingrained in the parties dna. By all accounts any savings from this have  already been wiped out by the recent wage increase announcements.
