[@1rickslater]

@@rivgacooper5330 yes the tories slowed down the asylum process to act as a deterrent. 🤷‍♂️ in the meantime they were to house them in hotels because believe it or not they’re not allowed to work or pay their own way until processed all accommodation is done at the tax payer expense. It really winds their base up and makes them focused on asylum seekers instead of the mass legal migration implemented by the Tory government that really suppressing our wages.

It's a pointless discussion. Labour and Conservative know exactly how to solve the problems of crime and immigration and they're deliberately not doing it because to make it worse serves their purpose. Illegal immigration could be stopped literally overnight by paying France to host our own troops on their soil and prevent a single boat from leaving. Prison overcrowding could have been solved 20, 30 years ago by... drumroll... building more prisons! It's literally that simple and don't think for a moment that any MP is confused about it.
