London transport staff warned of razors inside Covid conspiracy posters: https://www.theguardian.com/society...ned-of-razors-inside-covid-conspiracy-posters This is an old far-right tactic. The NF and their various offshoots used to do it. I've seen quite a few of the anti-vax stickers and posters on and around public transport recently. Nothing booby-trapped, though. Similar stuff to the Brexit marches. Probable crossover.
Three Tory MPs have been given an unimportant day off for trying to rig a court case: https://www.politicshome.com/news/a...-natalie-elphicke-roger-gale-theresa-villiers They should locked up with the sex-case that they were trying to get off.
I've been tempted to take a paint scraper with me when I leave the house to de-sticker a few lampposts around my neck of the woods, as they're covered with the things The stickers, that is, not the razor blades
All them desperate migrants that are willing to risk their children's lives in a rubber dinghy to escape the tyranny of France and the EU. You have to feel for people in a situation like that.
That would be the police who Priti Patel is telling to mistreat them, while also threatening to cut British contributions to them if they don't mistreat them so badly they can't make it to the Channel
Ahh right, so the UK still has power over EU countries Seriously, we are accused by the few of being a seriously racist/prejudiced/insular country so why would France (and other parts of Europe they have travelled through) be so hated by migrants ?
No, just financial contributions to the French side of the Channel which Priti Vacant is threatening to cut as if that wouldn't further encourage the French to just shrug and point them in the direction of Dover This also underlines how she believes that there should be gendarmes the entire length of the Normandy coast as if that is financially or logistically feasible, or that the French would be willing to deploy hundreds of officers to that neck of the woods to help the Tories dogwhistle about immigration to distract the easily distracted from that tax hike which breaks two election pledges at the same time they bulldozed through yesterday As for why migrants don't stay in France, it's quite simple: they deport around 30,000 illegal immigrants a year, which is around 1/3 of the estimated migrants entering the country a year - while the UK only bothers to keep track of the numbers for when the government needs to distract the population
But they do that now so what are we paying for? Does anyone pay us for policing our own borders? Oh, hang on, EU country right UK wrong. Got it now Shame the French can't seem to stop the influx from the rest of the EU
Because it's a treaty between the British and French governments and has nothing to do with the EU In other words, it's an example of that "sovereignty" that everyone is so determined we have...which was signed in 2004. With the French paying us. Which wouldn't be an issue if the UK Border Force had more than three vessels to cover 7723 miles of coastline And that last statistic really says a lot when you compare the various border forces listed in government documentation Italy: 600 vessels for 4722 miles Greece: 240 vessels for 8497 miles Spain: 147 vessels for 3085 miles Turkey: 107 vessels for 4473 miles Netherlands: 16 vessels for 280 miles Croatia: 9 vessels for 3625 miles UK: 3 vessels for 7723 miles of coastline That is why we are paying the French. Because we can't be arsed to fund our own Border Force, but nobody notices because that detail is perpetually left out of all the dogwhistling about migration
