    First flight couldn't take off due to strange rattling coming from the engines - Rishi attempted to to pass the noises off as nothing more than good vibrations ... but Health & Safety weren't buying it ...

    We should celebrate the news that Labour have ditched this ideas to send refugees to the nearest faraway place

    No Labour did it the simple way in the first few days and sent them back to France <laugh>

    It really tickled me when I first heard that, but apparently if someone needs urgent medical assistance you take them to the nearest port which was the French side....something like that anyway.

    So if that twat Rishi had been a bit more savvy the dumb fook, he could have said they all needed urgent medical assistance and turned them around lol.

    For the bantz, one reason I'd like Harris to win is just so I can see the reaction on Vance's face, once he realises he chose the wrong team and his deviousness didn't work this time, in his desperation to get to the top.

    Bibby Stockholm contract will not be renewed. Shocked I tell yer. It's going to be moved further along the coast and docked in Cornwall instead, to house all the poor people that have had their homes stolen by Londoners. <whistle> #bike

    I don't honestly know what the real answer is. You shouldn't be taking hotels up with them, unless not used, you shouldn't be using barges like Bibby. And we don't have enough houses for folk that already want houses, so them you build, whether private or social housing is not going to be available for migrants either.

    I know Tories wasted shhite loads of money, but even in the immediate future, we are going to have to fix our own problems first. If migrants already have family here, with housing, then yup that's an avenue, I can see temporary accomodation being used, but what about minors, they need specialist care, but would agree the £720 million wasted on Bibby alone could fund the kids brought over.

    But we are still going to have a housing problem with whatever we do. People think I'm anti migrant for asking these questions, I'm not, I'm happy to take in working migrants, ffs we need them, but we can't allow uncontrolled immigration (no matter how small the percentage), it's ridiculous.

    Hopefully Starmer holds all these answers. Get rid of the back log and go from there, but does that mean they get priority over those who were born and live here who face their own social problems as a citizen of this country.

    Lots of points there ... but here goes:

    Firstly - absolutely no - care of asylum seekers should not take precedence over looking after those that were born and live here - the number of homeless on our streets is a damning indictment of our society ... there should however be a fast track claims processing for particularly vulnerable asylum seekers as below...

    Part of the asylum 'problem' stems from not just under investment in the process leading to the backlog of claims, but also rounds of cuts to numbers of civil servants over many years as part of governmental cost cutting - the money that has been wasted on crackpot schemes could have been used for creating many jobs in that sector which would have eaten into the current backlog and facilitated speedier future claim checks / processing and potentially repatriation to source where the claim fails ...

    Priority application consideration / decisioning must be given to families / women and children ... not to single males travelling in groups or on their own - particularly those from countries where there is no obvious known risk to life etc for individuals ...

    Rant over <laugh>

    No mate - I don't hate migrants - but I do dislike anybody taking the piss <laugh>

    There is a lot wrong with this country that could easily be addressed with some common sense government ...

    Immigration / asylum is one - the welfare state is another - but the biggest single farce is infrastructure - the transport system is ****ed - the Utility companies and the Banks are morally bankrupt and the NHS, Police and Fire Service are overworked and underfunded...

    Now it's a real rant <laugh>

    I'm drawing up the plans for Keir as we speak, I've found this lovely little spot in Cornwall, where we can send absolute thousands, fear not. They can ride pushbike all day, eat bubblegum ice cream, sold nice and cheap at Safeways I'm realiably informed. I've even suggested holding the next monster truck show down there. It's all in hand bro, worry no more. We might have to kick a few londoners out, but they bring nothing to the town.

    Was it, yeah John McDonnell is often looking to stir it...sorry I mean to express his views lol.

    I'm not sure lifting the child two benefit cap is the right idea anyway, surely it's better for it to be targeted? (to those in need I mean).
