Well if one of the arguments for them coming is because they already have family here then I'd say it's a pertinent point .Blair had an open door policy of which society is still coming to grips with. |  |

| Rwanda flight on 12:47 - Jun 23 by Dr_Parnassus | What is being blamed on the left here? Those in power are actively trying to fight illegal immigration, nobody is blaming that on the left. What is being blamed on the left is the opposition to that, which is allowing illegal immigration at the cost of the people that live in that country by stretching already thin resources. The amount of people unable to follow a conversation is staggering. |
"The left advocate systems which make people’s lives worse, or intolerable in some instances in order to push agendas." They have had no control for 12 years, in those years people lives have gotten worse. Theres no need to imagine the left making anything worse. The right wing tories have already done a good enough job of that. |  |

Blaming for what? Factually noting what they stand for and what policies they push isn’t blaming them. |  |

| Rwanda flight on 22:35 - Jun 22 by Dr_Parnassus | Nonsense again. Nothing gets “taken”, they get thrown away. It’s by design. If you have documents then they can send you back to where you came from. If you are undocumented then they have nowhere to send you. It’s not a punishment, it’s part of the process to enter a country illegally. It’s a paid for and desired service, not a kidnapping. The left, would prefer to be seen as virtuous even if it’s at the expense of home based deaths and illness. They have no qualms in destroying peoples lives in order to pander to the woke. |
In some cases the documents are “taken” but in other cases the documents could be “lost” or disposed of. People trafficking isn’t straight forward and there are lots of drivers and lots of victims. Some countries don’t actually want their citizens back ( I’m thinking more about the economic migrants) as managing them and reintegrating them in to more “controlled” societies can be difficult as they’ve seen the world beyond the home countries border. Don’t agree with your last paragraph. [Post edited 23 Jul 2022 20:41]

| Rwanda flight on 11:22 - Jun 23 by Boundy | And the last left wing government allowed over 2.3 million into this country , a fact that Blair admitted surprised him when asked.And before you repeat the mantra new labour wasn't left wing , yes it was |
And immigration over the last few years is at record levels. We’ve come out of the EU for a number of reasons including taking control of our borders and numbers and it’s actually got worse. The party who are controlling our borders are doing a great job - not. |  | |  |

I don’t think it was ever about effective immigration policy. It’s a dog whistle to keep the right of the party happy while record numbers cross the channel after we’ve ‘taken back control’. I reckon we’re about to reach peak Tory (of the latest incarnation with Nadhim Zadawi. If an immigrant shoplifts they want want them sent home forever. If an immigrant evades paying tax on millions they make him chancellor. |  | |  |

It’s not Ukrainians who are/were being threatened with Rwanda. They’ve got a legal route to arrive and be processed. Afghans, Syrians etc. haven’t. I don’t think it’s necessary race related. More nationalism used to blame the wrong people. |  | |  |

Yes I’d agree it’s nationalism. But we also have to accept that nationalism is a perfectly acceptable way of thinking and not the evil many try to portray it as, or link it to racism. You can disagree with nationalism of course, but it’s a perfectly acceptable view. Nationalism is wanting the interests of your own habitat served, which is natural. Racism is an explicit hate of another based on their race. This doesn’t seem racial to me as you say, but a desire to protect the limited resources of the country someone lives in that is already facing severe shortages in many key areas. You just had a ridiculous Government try to solve it with one of the most ludicrous ideas I’ve heard in a while. |  |

Its very deliberate though. Johnson is a journo. They know what plays well with the Tory hard core vote. He set this up to deflect from partygate. Thats who he is. The public money wasted and the fairness means nothing to him. |  |

I don’t really agree. When people start talking about “dog whistles” then I tune out. It usually means there is nothing to rationalise their view. It’s a bit like accusing someone who won’t rise to abuse as being “passive aggressive”. It was clearly a deterrent, which is no bad thing. They just went about it in the most ludicrous of ways from what seems like yet another useless Government. |  |

The Ukrainians arriving here are economic refugees, as most of the Ukraine has seen no fighting at all. Some even get to choose which country |  | |  |

Go away , look up the definition of refugee (yours doesn't count by the way ) then report back to us |  |

I think ‘dog whistle’ is an appropriate term in this instance. It’s a technique to keep the party together without actually achieving anything. |  | |  |
