    I see that #Burnham is just as happy as #Starmer was to let black and brown people risk their lives crossing the channel rather than giving them safe and legal routes to claim asylum, just so he can show the tabloid press and racist voters that he can be mean to foreigners too.

  9. Stop the boats? Contrary to what many will tell you about the UK having open borders and welcoming arms, if it was even slightly simple to halt unofficial migration we'd have already done it.

    You can't contain things that are that keen to escape their containment. You can dam a river, and it will stop it for a while until it flows around it or suddenly bursts — and then you have a worse situation to deal with.

    Excess migration can only really be solved at source, which in this case means tackling conflict and human rights issues in the originating countries, plus – and most people don't want to hear this – tackling climate change, because I can assure you that nothing is gonna cause mass migration quite like vast swathes of the planet becoming uninhabitable.

    I see the BBC are deploying significant investigative resources to make sure they remind us plebs that the real threat to us all comes from poor brown people on small boats.

    Perish the thought that they should deploy those resources on investigating rich white people defrauding the taxpayer or buying influence over government.

    It would never do to let the plebs know what the real threat is, would it?

  21. Europe moves toward a shared approach to Channel crossings.

    As the Franco-British ‘One in, one out’ migration deal is set to expire in October, the European Commission has unveiled an action plan that France sees as recognition of Channel crossings as a European issue.
