  • "We're not breaking the law" is the best they could get out of Suella on Sky news. Seems quite a low bar.

  • https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-64884435

    Perhaps what we need next is UNexit as Brexit worked so well for us.

  • Well this is awks

  • IANAP, but apparently:

    The UK Modern Slavery Act is one of the most far reaching pieces of legislation in the world addressing issues of modern slavery. It consolidates current slavery and human trafficking offences, and introduces new preventive measures, support systems and a regulatory body.

  • a regulatory body

    "Office of fair slaving, gangmasters liaison unit, how can I help you today?"

  • Yes there is a modern slavery system with protections and legislation to prevent people from entering it and punish those who facilitate it. They are saying if you come illegally you won't be protected by that legislation which is whack as the system was set up to prevent vulnerable people from being sucked in to it in the first place.

  • Is it? Surely just more fuel to the EU (of course it's not actually them) stopping us doing what we want to.

    Best of all it will fail in the courts somewhere and lefty lawyers, human rights, etc can be blamed and they don't actually have to do anything.

  • Quite the overnight upgrade on a 100 million migrants wanting to come here.

  • We should let them all in.

    Then sneak out the back door, and take over their now completely empty countries.

    British* Empire 2.0

    * but mostly the English, obvs.

  • Apparently Afghanistan is stunning

  • "stop people jumping the queue" is so British. Reminds me of the last cuntry I left

    (nsfw but play it anyway)

  • I think the Russians might have something to say about us building a new London there though.

  • More in terms of doing media rounds speaking directly to gaslighting the public saying "with this bill we're not breaking the law" and then

    • separately admitting in the text of that bill that you can't make a statement that it complies with some laws
      -writing to Tory MPs boasting that some parts are more than 50% probably unlawful
  • The morning programs called her on this. Quite something when these interviews, that used to be soft PR exercises, now open with "so, why are you lying to the public?"... and this looks to be an actual Conservative strategy... and it works... (somehow?).

  • People here seem to be in denial about who the public is.

  • R4 repeated the questions she was asked a few weeks ago by another Tory* ('if you're a 16 yr old African teenager fleeing war/persecution and have family in the UK, is there a legal route?') - she still had no answer to it.

    *who now supports her new policy.

  • I get that right wing language works on part of the public, but open lying seems to be now a genuine strategy? "Oven ready deal, 40 new hospitals, likely billions wanting to enter the country" etc. That is the confusing part. At some point reality will catch up to short-termism.

  • Given the clear demand that Suella has identified, anyone want to join me in making small boats before Michelle Mone gets her contract awarded

  • It's not like those topics stay on peoples minds for long or the newspapers they read follow up
    on the results later. They just use some outrageous statement, people get the feeling the Tories
    are fighting the system, the nastier the better.

  • An apology wouldn't be seen by the target audience for the original message. The aim has been achieved internally and via the Daily Mail, get the core voters masturbating over the new policies and then frothing at the mouth if (hopefully) they get blocked.

  • I give it six months before we have a referendum/are promised a referendum on small boats and closed borders

  • Coupled with "Should Britain leave the Lefty Lawyer riddled, Woke Liberal Anti British ECHR?"

  • Simon Clarke was on the BBC news yesterday saying that if the ECHR tries to "frustrate" their latest nazi proposals then we should immediately withdraw the UK from the ECHR. They know it'll be contested as it directly contradicts the international asylum law. So in other words the whole policy has precisely sweet FA to do with controlling our borders and everything to do with distracting from the hancock WhatsApp messages/people starving/"Sir" Stanley Johnson etc. Whilst at the same time winning back the gammon vote AND removing any last remnants of any human rights UK citizens have.

    But its working isn't it? All I heard on the radio/TV news today was talk of small boats and Gary Lineker.
