  1. This is basically just a weather report. I actually think things _are_ improving, but this itself doesn’t really mean much

  2. I know “small boats” is the narrative, but don’t most illegal immigrants come here via plane anyway?

    Problem with this is those who swallow the farage lies to the point of rioting and hanging flags won’t believe it. They will demand ridiculous levels of proof it’s not a lie…proof they don’t demand of the other side

    I mean that’s great news, but that subheading isn’t great reading…

    “So far, 39,292 people have crossed to the UK aboard small boats this year – already more than any other year except 2022.”

    Because the weather was shit and we had a bunch of storms in a row.

    That is it. That it all.

  6. Tomorrows headline:

    >Labour wastes hundreds of thousands on bloated border force for none existent migrants.

    I too wouldn’t want to be a dinghy right now. If I wanted to get to the promise land, it probably makes sense to wait until it’s a bit more likely I’d get there in one piece.
