You were worried enough to start this thread in the first place. “It’s absolutely out of control” was your opening gambit. Compared to visa overstay? Not even close. Unless you start inventing numbers the size of Sheffield to get angry about.

You’re inventing imaginary numbers to get angry about when the real illegal immigration numbers are much much worse and actually numbers. It’s only going to get worse too. The numbers arriving then overstaying has doubled in the last five years, 100k in 2020 alone adding to that ever growing...

Visa overstay numbers are constantly over half a million at any given time, actually closer to three quarters of a million most of the time, I see your imaginary Sheffield and raise you real life Leeds. And unlike the people crossing the channel, the majority of which are legitimate asylum...

Well, Albanian crime gangs are one of the main groups we’re facilitating in opening a market for so that makes sense.

Albania? Just in the grand schemes of anything immigration related alone. Immigration hasn’t gone down since brexit, the government has just sent a delegation to India and the Philippines in an attempt to recruit the 160K workers we’re short in the care sector, about 90% of actual illegal...

They’ve quietly slipped through that human rights records will no longer be a consideration when negotiating post brexit trade deals. Project fear once again is project here.

Not just sewage. Run off from farming also. It’s a real issue, especially with chicken farming. When they empty the sheds they clean them out and spread it on the fields, that washes into streams and rivers. Chicken shit is really high in phosphates (hence why they put it on the fields) so when...

I think you’re overplaying LNG, it’s a historically unreliable source yet still equates for about a fifth of our usage. It’s unreliable for many reasons. The biggest producers are Iran, Russia and Qatar and we’re only on trading terms with one. We don’t have a lot of long term contracts for...

I wasn’t surprised at all by that having had a five minute conversation with my postie on Thursday about it. The union clearly delivered a clear and concise reasoning to their members as my postie was all over the details on pay and conditions, didn’t mention the Luxembourg takeover but he...

A very different character to Mick Lynch but equal in his ability to deliver his message. Interesting that they seem to have broken the news of a foreign takeover #takingbackcontrol and clever use of using the government’s own words in his delivery and explanation of the importance of the...

She’s already got an outfit picked out for when they meet

It’s a choice now? Has he also suggested cutting back on eating to beat the cost of living crisis? Still, as long as his horses are warm.

No news? I thought today was another D Day for a bond announcement?

The chancellor briefly put his head above the parapet, only to tell us it’s all our owns fault because we use too much fuel.

The next couple of years are going to be fun

Word for word ;)

Currently have our military on joint manoeuvres with theirs. Which has been a constant for decades and rightly so. It’s just more red meat for the nutters.
