The Labour Government

No they didn’t.

You are confusing asylum applicants with regular immigrants who require visas to live here.. which are not granted unless they have skills the government of the day considers we are short of. Like nurses or midwifes.

You see, complex issues don’t admit simple solutions. Turns out, leaving the EU means we don’t have a ready supply of mobile labour any more. So when we don’t have enough nurses,say, the government understands we either grant visas to nurses who want to come here or we carry on with the shortage.

So apart from visas granted because, say, an English bloke marries an American and they decide to set up home here, visas are granted to people we need.

Because If they hadn’t we wouldn’t have enough nurses. Or midwifes.

Turns out saying “no immigration” isn’t the simple answer even the last Government thought it was.

And none of this has anything to do with small boats and asylum seekers.
It should also be pointed out that EU immigrants usually came, worked, then went home.
 
I am not confusing anything you are confusing everything. Your VISA figure was wrong I haven't mentioned Asylum YOU have.

Don't make the mistake of putting words in my mouth it wont end well for you,just admit your VISA figure was wrong and move on from there.

Just because the Tories did something it doesn't mean what they did was right.

Get a grip man.

You said they tried to send them to Rwanda. They didn’t. They tried to send asylum seekers there. Not regular economic migrants. Who we need. You have obviously confused two different things. Never mind, it happens. (Or why else did you mention Rwanda?)

On the number its irrelevant whether its 1.5m or 3m its a huge number either way, but FWIW you are probably looking at the figure for all visas rather than just economic migrants.

It is ironic that a bloke who writes barely intelligible posts full of grammar and spelling errors goes out of his way to pretend that someone with a fairly broad Stockport accent can’t be understood.
To be having a go at the Northern accent, on a Manchester City forum, should rule you out of any real debate.
