Thought you’d be all for it while we suck it up quietly being asked to work years longer than our French friends.

Who said I wasn’t ?
Always had admiration for the continental WC, who are more than happy to take to the streets to fight for their rights. Still think the Neo-Libs are a bunch of ****s though

I've heard the word sovereignty mentioned once or twice. Much easier to deal with the migrant boat crisis on our own without the pesky French getting involved you see.

From that right-wing rag, The Guardian March 9th:

"The UK lost the right to return migrants to the EU after Brexit, although in practice relatively few people left the UK on such routes. Under the EU system, British authorities were also obliged to consider taking in asylum seekers with family ties in the UK."

Glad it works nicely in theory. Going so well in reality too right?
 
not much going on then



DUP MP Jim Shannon has tabled an Early Day Motion to mark the 50th anniversary of Dolly Parton's hit song I Will Always Love You.

It's simply that the idea that we would have been better off staying in the EU from an illegal migrant perspective is false.

We lost the right to return migrants after Brexit, but were no longer obliged to consider taking in migrants with family ties.

Crazy experience if Khan's London walking through St James's Park today. A bloke was shouting at and trying to nick bags off tourists. One guy slapped him and he produced a knife. He then started running at people. I was walking towards him and realised I am a coward.

I ran off to the Mall and flagged down a policeman outside of St James's Palace. Told them a bloke had a knife and was attacking people. To be fair the copper wasn't a coward, cycled into the park, the maniac had a teenage kid round the neck and then six police descended on him.

2 things struck me: no one else did a ****ing thing and there has been no news coverage. I don't need to describe the attacker or his beard. ****ing scary but full credit to the police for not stopping to question his gender or my description of him.
