UK set to criminalise illicit refugee crossings....

And in "hot take of the day news"...

Dover residents are "horrified" after a fire attack at a Border Force migrant centre at the port, a Kent county councillor says.
Two or three devices - described as petrol bombs by a witness - were thrown by the suspect, who was found dead at a nearby petrol station on Sunday.
Another device found in the man's car was later made safe by the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit.
Nigel Collor said residents were "horrified at the overall situation".
The Conservative county councillor said: "I'd like to see them stop the boats coming across.
"I know this is something that's been going on for a few years and if they stopped the boats coming in you wouldn't have the problem.
"We've got to work closely with the French, haven't we? It's where they're coming from."

Yep. It's all the people on the boats that caused this bloke to throw firebombs at the Border Force centre and then top himself.
This is an actual opinion from an actual Conservative councillor.

It just makes you despair...

Sadly, that's 'Normal for Dover' and moch of the locale.
In other News, local MP Nathalie Elphicke says nothing of value on the subject....

Very enlightening, is there a point to all your links and quotations or is it just a public information service?

You'll be alright in Devon though.

Just listened to somebody Saunders senior immigration something or other in the govt. He needs taking outside and shooting for supporting Rwanda, and suggesting a cruise ship detention centre in international waters. The final straw was saying that the conditions in Manston are no worse than the conditions they were in in Calais....

Kevin Saunders is a former Chief Immigration Officer - a retired Senior Civil Servant.

Part of his shtick is a cruise ship in international waters mid channel.

For the most part the Channel is either French or UK!!!

A terrorist incident, surely?

Don't be silly, he'll be a 'loner' who wasn't in the slightest bit affected by inflammatory anti refugee language .

That was the knob!
Yes, a prison ship in international waters! AFAIK that's some way off of Land's End in the Atlantic...that's going to work well (unless the Channel Islands count as 'International waters').
How do these people hold-down jobs?

Did you hear the interview and what was actually said?

I'm surprised Braverman hasn't recommended a prison ship in international waters off the Rwandan coast.

Was it so bad that he deserves to be killed for it?

I'm told Lake Kivu is very nice at this time of year.

Come the glorious day Comrade; come the glorious day.

I don’t think this sort of comment is acceptable, regardless of how foul someone’s political stance is.
