didnt take him long did it.....................


The government has defended the early release of prisoners after it emerged a former inmate allegedly sexually assaulted a woman on the same day he was freed.
Amari Ward, 31, was released as part of the policy, which aims to ease prison overcrowding, on Tuesday.
He appeared at Croydon Magistrates' Court on Thursday charged with sexual assault and is due to appear at Maidstone Crown Court next month.

"While we cannot comment on the details of any single case, those who break their licence conditions or commit further crimes will be punished."

Yet they’ve effectively made political prisoners from social unrest while letting out genuine criminals
 
Eight people have died overnight while trying to cross the Channel from France to England, French police say.

The rubber vessel left with 50 people on board and started to sink not long after leaving the coast.
It comes less than two weeks after 12 people, including six children and a pregnant woman, died when a boat carrying dozens of migrants sank.

There has been a spate of crossing attempts in the last two days with the arrival of calmer weather.
French maritime authorities said that 200 people were rescued in a 24-hour period over Friday and Saturday.

The French coast guard and other first responders rescued people onboard four separate boats - one with 61, another with 55, and two others with 48 and 36 each.
Eighteen attempted crossings were monitored by authorities over the course of the day.
Including the eight latest victims, a total of 45 people have died in the Channel this year - the highest reported number since 2021, according to the UN's International Organisation for Migration.

More than 21,000 people have crossed the Channel this year.

.GOV so far have not released any figures for 6 days but 18 attempted crossings stopped and 4 being rescued would indicate the possibility of over 1000 having tried!
 
.gov has just released the figures for those landing on our shores in last 24 hours another £600,000 per week load just 801 to take landings of just known boat people to 9613 or more! since July 4th ...
THATS ALMOST half of the number since Jan 1st.... and added a cost of around £350,000,000 per annum and if rumours are correct another 2000 next week will really upset the apple cart ... no deterrent and promise of 100,000 free passes and likely hood you might be only one of a handful that doesnt make it ................... so far this year just
£764.400, 000 pa added to annual bill....

AT THIS RATE liklihood will run out of hotels within 2 years and UK CITIZENS AND VISITORS will need to holiday abroad, / not come here as hotels full.. or start camping!

As of 4 September, 21,977 people had crossed the Channel in 2024.That is more than in the same period in the previous year, but fewer than in 2022.
In 2023 as a whole, 29,437 people came to the UK in small boats.
The 2022 total of 45,755, external was the highest since figures were first collected in 2018.
Since 2018, more than 135,000 people have come to the UK by this route.

Just over 97,000 people claimed asylum in the year to the end of June 2024,, external according to the most recent figures.

The number of annual applications for asylum - including dependants - peaked at about 103,000 in 2002, as people fled conflicts in Afghanistan, Somalia and Iraq.

Claims then fell sharply, dropping to a 20-year low of 22,600 in 2010.
However, numbers rose again throughout the 2010s, as refugees fled Syria.
In 2022, the number of applications reached almost 100,000 again.
 
How many asylum cases are waiting to be processed?
Some people wait months or even years for their claims to be considered.

At the end of June 2024, external there were 85,839 cases relating to 118,882 people awaiting an initial decision.

Former Conservative Prime Minister Rishi Sunak pledged to clear older claims by the end of 2023, but 4,500 "complex cases" were still awaiting a decision at the end of December.
The latest official figures showed that on 14 April 2024, 2,377 of those applications were still waiting for an initial decision.
In the year to the end of June 2024, 7,190 people who were not granted asylum were returned to their home country. This is up 48% from the previous year (4,873), mainly because of a rise in Albanian returns.

In the same year, [ 12 month's ] 2,336 people who arrived in small boats were returned. Between 2018 and June 2024, 3,788 people who came to the UK in small boats were returned, which is 3% of all small boat arrivals in that period.

backlog going dowm ... well done .GOV [ TORY ]
 
Intercept them and return them to France, Belgium, Germany, Italy etc or any other safe country they’ve visited on the way to the land of milk and honey while this Government rob the OAPs
 
the 3% is equal to about 3,788 from 126,000 that means pre Labour .GOV. in 6 years.
About 83% of small boat arrivals [circa 30,000] in the 12 months to June 2024 were male [ 24,900 ] and - where age was recorded - more than 40% were between 25 and 39 years old [ 10,500 ] .

some do most just herd them on ... and therein lies the problem.

there is some 000's of young couples, married or waiting to , [waiting because cant get a house /flat ] British Citizens, likely paid a few years tax and their parents certainly will have, who are now struggling to find a house or flat because councils / housing assoc: have had to give PRIORITY to Asylum seekers who came here illegally! Probably similar to other EU countries.
 
another 292 illegals arrived Yesterday, another £ 204,400 on the weekly bill and under Labours watch now into 5 figure 000's in just a matter of 10 weeks [ and thats only the known ones! ]
 
friend just told me there are more immigrants [ boat people ] than the population of Bath or combined Taunton& Bridgwater or Clevedon portishead & Weston S Mare.........

how much £trn and time and space would that take up mind boggling................. needed a reservoir as big as Blagdon ........60,000 houses .... probably 8 new schools ... a massive sewage works .... 5 supermarkets minimum ... at least 1 large hospital as big as RUH IN BATH [ or BRI ] and a couple SMALLER ONES! [ EACH AREA ! ] ... new police station with at least 200 staff? new ambulance station / s
IN the meantime some 100,000 young British citizens /couples are on the streets/ cramped in with parents.

It is nor houses we want it is blocks of flats like some of the more "advanced " countries of the world .... 30 stories high with 180 flats in each 40 of these in spread amongst the 20 biggest cities would house over 20,000 people

uuummmm penny dropped theres over 100,000+ so need 200 x 30 floor blocks of flats [ and of course at least a share of all the stuff above water/sewage etc etc etc ]

Nothing wrong with having a grievance, rioting or inciting violence is another thing.

Totally agree with your point about Edward’s, should have been locked up and the key thrown away.
