“Stop the boats within 48 hours”

Hahaha. There is literally nothing you or anyone can do about that. It’s also not anything like as big an issue as people make out, just tabloidthink shit for simpletons. You should have said speed up asylum application processing.

To make the UK stronger we should also join the EU single market & customs union, better still would be Schengen. That would give us the strongest possible policy on “small boats” for those who worry about that.

I wouldn't vote for you because you don't seem to have the faintest idea how government works and what powers an MP has.

MrsBennetsPoorNerves · 07/03/2024 12:39

Given your comments on other threads, I don't think you're in a position to help anyone "see the light" because you come across as being blindingly ignorant yourself.
