This government system we have is weak and complacent to the point of instituting complete social meltdown with its disdain and revulsion at the former population of these Islands.

I do not think the problem is just parliament as the law courts have just condoned a physical attack on one of our MPs. The immigration lawyers will just defeat anything Parliament does so it is a deep seated problem of an entire system of state order well past its use by date.
