Well actually it says more about the British people and their desire to inflict self harm on themselves a second time. I can't imagine there is anyone of any political persuasion that is happy with the state of the country right now. However, 14 years of Tory rule, austerity, Brexit, Truss amongst other things are not going to easily be recovered from, and that is proving to be the case.
Are Labour getting everything right-no of course not. Small boats are a good example. We all know the crossings are weather dependent. The weather has been good and so crossings are high. But the key thing is that the boats are being launched with more people in them. The figures are up 28% on the same period, but this is by no means a record.
It is key to remember however that it is not illegal to cross the channel:
"As
FactCheck has previously reported, it’s illegal to enter the country without a visa or special permission – but people who arrive by small boat are protected by international law if they claim asylum once they arrive."
Until the issue is addressed at source or en-route breaking up the gang networks the issue will continue
But considering we are supposed to have a relatively well educated population, the thought that many are actively emboldoning the likes of Farage, Tice, Anderson as some sort of bloody nose to the other parties proves those people have learnt nothing from the 2016 debacle.
I have to say I was always giving you the benefit of the doubt that you were "lending" your vote to Reform. Reading your posts today suggests otherwise.
