Government failing on their illegal immigration and asylum pledges.

[Brigadier]

"an economist" warns. and arguably a "tory economist warns". Based on his CV.

Should be well-qualified on how to run a tight ship then, wouldn't you think?

oh dear - back to posting Boll@x when you don't like the facts.

"Migrants are sneaking into the UK in lorries while police are focused on small boats crossing the Channel, a watchdog has said..."

Pretty clear

Did you imagine the word "increasing" in there?
Or was it just your flawed perception that caused you to post your typical nonsense?

The beeb is reporting long term fall in net migration.

UK net migration almost halves in 2024, falling to 431,000, ONS estimates - follow live

The ONS says the drop is "driven by falling numbers of people coming to work and study, particularly student dependants", following previous policy changes.

a different subject

checks on trucks coming through customs

"a different subject" says Motorbiking


Brexit has led to less checks on lorries coming to UK, ergo more people trying to get in that way

I have said take backs are not legal without agreement.

you have claimed that picking up migrants in French water can be taken back to France

they can not

 

[Notch7]

Did you read the thread title?

net migration has halved under this Labour government

I am sure you must be pleased about the fall in numbers

[Mottie]

Net migration halved?
Wow.
Keep up the good work Sir Keir.

Yeah. Let’s stop those talented individuals from coming here and incentivise the wealthy to leave. That’ll do it.

So now Mottie wants 1 million net migration

incentivise the wealthy to leave

the ones that would leave don’t pay tax here anyway.

Isn’t it funny how the people screaming loudly how the wealthy would leave if taxes were put up a bit for the wealthy…..are always the rich.

 

[Notch7]

Did you read the thread title?

Yes.

Labour Party have massively cut Net migration.

 

[Mottie]

No need to leave then, is there?

 

[Mottie]

Did you read the thread title?

Yes.

Labour Party have massively cut Net migration.

You obviously didn’t. The thread is nothing to do with net migration. Illegal migration is up.

 

[motorbiking]

you have claimed that picking up migrants in French water can be taken back to France

they can not

I have not - unless they are rescued under SOLAS reg 33

And then they would, out of courtesy and advice, communicate with the French for landing instructions, and for medical assistance to be on hand, etc.
