    It probably would be if there were legal migration routes available from countries suffering civil wars, religious and political persecution but it’s apparently quite difficult to put a visa request in from Kabul, Khartoum or Damascus, particularly if you are anti-government.

    I suspect we might start to see more family members attempting hazardous journies with their ‘fighting-age’ spouses now that we have tightened up the rules for genuine refugees to later bring their families legally.

    This is what concerns me.

    The fact that we've cut off all legal routes is an abomination in my view and has directly played into the gangs who try to smuggle people in

    Unless that document (birthday card) is a complete and absolute fabrication with a photoshopped signature, then the sig looks 'real' ... it would be incredibly difficult for anyone to duplicate it freehand ... and surely the original could be time dated with all the technology now available ... and if it's dated to 2003 that's 3 years before Epstein's charges - so what would anyone have to gain with a 'Trump plant' at that time?

    So the birthday book now under the microscope, including the alleged 'birthday card' containing the 'Donald sig minge' and a reference to 'secrets' was actually compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell ... the same Ghislaine Maxwell who only recently downplayed any relationship/ friendship/ connections between Epstein and Trump ... perhaps she wasn't aware of who Trump was at that particular time <whistle>

    .... obviously she wasn't 'got at' in any way whatsoever...:)

    The Labour Party were involved in kiddy fiddling on Epstein island.


    Lord Mandelson called the late convicted *****phile Jeffrey Epstein his "best pal", according to a letter in an alleged "birthday book" that has been released by US lawmakers.

    In the message for Epstein's 50th birthday in 2003, Lord Mandelson - the UK's ambassador to the US since last year - describes him as an "intelligent, sharp-witted man" who "parachuted" into his life.

    The existence of the letter from Lord Mandelson was first reported by the Wall Street Journal in July, when the newspaper published details of the alleged birthday note.

    In fairness to Mandelson he's never denied it - just held his hands up and said he regretted being introduced to Epstein ...

    ... instead of threatening to sue the journal for billions because they published extracts from the 'Birthday Book' compiled by Ghislaine Maxwell... <whistle>

    Anyone who visited Epstein island should be sent back there and then just set the place on fire and watch them burn.

    He’s a ****ing fraud.

    It was only a few months ago he was getting paid £40k by Nomad Capitalists to give a speech on how foreign nationals and Brits could get passports and citizenship abroad, so that they could avoid paying tax in their own countries.

    Okay to try and get citizenship in a foreign country if you’re trying to hide your cash, not so much if you’re trying to flee war or torture
