    I said this recently. Starmer, as prime minister, needs to put his big boys pants on and announce that this is a threat to national security which requires cross party support. For too long this been used as a political football.
    At the same time he needs to acknowledge that this is going to cost a significant amount of money, which could need a tax rise to implement. I think the public would support this, as long as every additional penny raised was spent on tackling the problem.
    To start with, we need to close loopholes which allows for families to join migrants if they are given permission to remain and other benefits in kind, massive investment in border services and police (which could also help with the antisocial behaviour of our own youths), processing centres and accommodation facilities and whether we like it or not, significant investment in the countries where these migrants come from. IMO, the way to stop this migration is to make staying “at home” more attractive.

    One big plus about Starmer's obvious incompetence, is that people are now starting to see, and speak out about the issues others have been pointing out for years, such as removing the causes of them leaving, and reducing the incentives for them to come here.

    Many of us took a fair amount of abuse for pointing out what they are only just starting to accept.

    I've long argued that taking the best from impoverished regions is a huge downward spiral for them, and building future problems for us.

    People are starting to see that the current tolerance and cost of migration and in particular illegals is to the detriment of those in genuine need.

    It's progress, but not as Starmer or the left would have hoped for, and it is absolutely **** all to do with skin colour or racism.

    She actually said people like her should be charged 300% council tax on second homes so she's not being hypocritical as she hasn't said stop the purchase of extra homes

    Who worked ten hours a day, five days a week in a factory all of his life. He certainly made at least one tool.

    Foreigners claim £1bn a month in benefits

    Universal Credit paid out to foreigners in March: £941m.
    Winter Fuel Allowance scrapped.
    Two-child benefits cap.
    Disability benefits cut.
    More than 17,000 foreign criminals awaiting deportation, including murderers and *****philes that have used ‘human rights’ laws to remain thanks to Starmer’s mates.

    Welcome to the total failure of the loony Labour government, with Rachel from Accounts encouraging foreigners to get in boats. The black hole in the country’s finances keeps getting bigger.

    The Roman army that invaded Britain in 55 BC and 54 BC was comprised of approximately 10,000 soldiers in the first invasion and 30,000 in the second. These numbers include legionaries, cavalry, and auxiliary troops.

    No wonder they're so desperate to escape the EU. It looks awful there.

    I wonder what changed?

    Look at all the resources and legislation that went into football hooliganism. Was it worse than what we see in so many places today?
