You’ll be pleased to know that deportations are up under Labour too. Substantially in fact. It’s almost as if the Tories were deliberately making it a bigger issue than it needed to be.The backlog isnt the problem, the numbers are. It's easy to approve them and let them stay. Do you have data on net cases v repatriation?
I dont need a politicians answer. I asked for net which as you know is still more.You’ll be pleased to know that deportations are up under Labour too. Substantially in fact. It’s almost as if the Tories were deliberately making it a bigger issue than it needed to be.
We all know that the hotel approach was a) because councils had no housing stock and b) their Tory donating mates owns the hotels and made a fucking killing off the government subsidies.
Exactly, but if you say shut the borders until it levels people shout racist because that's easier to try and close down the argument than have sensible discussions on solutions. The numbers dont stack up and all we get is yeah but we need nurses. Im sure those thousands in hotels are enrolled in NHS training programmes.I’m not going to get into the whole immigration argument but theres been population growth of 6m+ (10%+) in 15 years. We’ve built 200k houses a year on average. Even taking kids into consideration people just need to do the maths.
Throw in right to buy polices, lack of replacement social housing building etc and where did people think hundreds of thousands of people per year were gonna go ?!
