The Law of unintended consequences

When will they start listening to the people of this country? Politicians are each following their own agenda without considering the wishes of the people. Are they even thinking about the effect all of this immigration is having on communities, not just the native British but the various different cultures of the immigrants. They are all being thrown together into some sort of social soup. There are already incidents of racial tension and it will only get worse.

If the politicians listened to the majority of the public, they would be treating the asylum seekers with a good deal more humanity than is being shown to them at present.

56% of people in the U.K. think that asylum seekers contribute positively to the country, with 54% saying that asylum seekers should be allowed to stay.

The Tories toxic rhetoric is largely rejected by the British public.

Braverman's job is to keep the immigration 'problem' in the public eye to attract votes for the Tories at the GE, not to solve the 'problem'. The longer the backlog, the higher the cost and money wasted, the more boats, the more squawking about luxury hotels, more looking tough, etc., the more votes from racists, anti-immigrants, BNP members, etc., they will gather in.

The “small boats” are certainly one of the wedges that the Tories are hoping to use - whether it is effective is doubtful.

But the fact is that they have not enacted the illegal immigration bill because of the consequences of the enactment.

Absolutely bizarre and another example of Tory incompetence.

Oh dear, same old, same old.

It’s a pity we can’t raise a petition to get a General Election before the New Year.

I imagine the Labour Party are up in the air about all this?
