To think this is why Reform will win the next election “Epping hotel asylum seeker mistakenly released”

Considering a lot of defectors are tories it would be easy to see them pair up.

I don't know
I wouldn't be surprised if reform and conservatives joined ..they ould balance each other out a bit

That was just another promise they made in their election manifesto that they’ve failed to deliver on. Same as their promise not increase taxes on working people 🤡🤡🤡

And nobody thought Brexit would win but here we are expect the unexpected when people are fed up and scared.

No one. but labour will have parties that will join with them. No one will join with reform it’s a dead party.Farage is the right wing equivalent of Corbyn all talk no trousers.

Why didn’t donkey’s years of conservative governments do that?

Yes I wish this would happen

Especially when so many go home for holidays once given status.

Nail on the head. If it was so unsafe where they've come from, they wouldn't have left their children and female relatives behind.

They CLAIM they're in fear of their lives. There's a big difference between reality and what they claim.

What planet are you on
Come on ..they are 99% young men
No granny's or grandad ,no mums aunties sister niece
All females left behind
No disabled ,no injured
All left behind in a supposedly unsafe country they originated from.
Not safe for these fighting age men to stay ..yet safe for everyone else not strong enough to make the journey
Come on ,make it make sense

Exactly. They are in France - a safe country. Then they make the decision to risk their lives coming to the UK via boat across the English Channel. There must be a pretty strong incentive for them to take such risks.

Anyone can claim asylum in any country they want. The vast majority go to the neighbouring country. They are not obligated to stay in France.

Simply untrue

Give over
They are coming from France
Definitely not in danger for their life

What young children
They are all men ..
I think there was one child at one point , getting dragged across from France ...a safe country

It’s a choice to and in a way a privilege to country hop deciding which one is the best one to try and claim asylum in. Only those with money get to pay the people smugglers after all.

Those who are poor and in fear stand no chance.

Again mainly men as well. I’d support bringing women and children over with support.

If they are refugees then be definition they are here because they are in fear of their lives. I'm not sure it's much of a choice.

And when this means young children living on the streets? What then?

Pontins is empty these days.

But exactly. No money given zero. No hotels with three meals a day.

Ex military bases not good enough for them but good enough for military. Pfft.

If you want to willingly come here support yourself. NHS included in that stance.

Who will get over that?

I'm almost at the point now where I think it might be time to lance the boil. Let Reform win and let their idiot supporters feel the pain when they realise how monumentally stupid they have been.

But then I fear that that might not realise things might just spiral further into chaos. And I worry about how many innocent people will suffer.

The problem is not that the Reform voters will make life terrible for themselves. Frankly, they deserve whatever chaos is coming. The problem is that they will drag others down with them. I feel very sorry for those who will not have anywhere else to go.

The easy solution is to withdraw benefits..
Basically even if granted asylum,they can't claim anything..no housing ,no money ,no disability benefits
And stop using hotel and houses and having them roam the streets,but use old army barracks or disused prisons ,..there's a floating ship that the army used ,but yet it's not good enough for asylum seekers
So stay and build life here if you can support yourself.. but no financial help will be offered.
I expect boat crossings with stop immediately

Unless things improve economically, standard of living improves for the majority and we have less people coming into the country either on visas or claiming asylum I fear Reform have a very good chance of winning if they don’t implode

they will use straight forward slogans how it shall be implemented won’t matter to many voters as what is in place and has been in place isn’t working for too many

We are paying France to diddly squat
Should stop paying them any money at all
