      Not enough! Only Boris and Farage can save us now, Starlink Starmer is trying to keep the unions happy with cheap labour, we see though you Mr Toolmaker

      It’s such a simple solution, it’s surprising that it isn’t the norm.

      This was always such a straightforward and simple thing to implement. It’s frustrating it has taken this long. It’s very simple, if you won’t take back your criminals, we don’t want your students, workers etc.

      Next cut their foreign aid if they refuse to take their own back. Money always lights a fire under peoples arses.

      What’s the point of this if the main reason we can’t return asylum seekers is because they are fleeing a credible threat in their home country and therefore we have an obligation to provide them with refuge under our own laws, international law and the ECHR?

      As I said. This guy is gonna be the best prime
      Minister of the last 15 years simply because he’s not a fucking incompetent idiot. He has problems but he knows how to work.

      This only punishes the people trying to enter through the correct schemes and will only encourage more people to come illegally

      And of course the image uses a photo of people on small boats, even though people travelling on small boats don’t have proper visa’s in the first place, and I thought they were already coming from countries they can’t return to.

      This might reduce visa overstays, but using a photo of a recently graduated uni student just trying to earn a living wouldn’t make as good of a narrative, would it?

      This should have been done ages ago. But it should also be tied to a cutting of overseas aid and a tax on remittances sent to the country from the UK.

      I mean it makes sense to bargain like this.

      A lot of countries heavily benefit from their citizens remitting funds back, returning with their money earned in the UK.

      But which visas? Visit visas? Work visas? Family visas? Knowing our courts they’d say it was discriminatory and side with the foreign citizen.

      Has he finally redefined what an illegal migrant is?
      That’ll have the reform voters stampeding back to Labour.
