Woke watch
"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

Re: Woke watch
"Fifth Column 1:58 Mon Mar 25 I think that the policy/process is a good idea - no idea why Rwanda was selected, probably an Arsenal fan civil servant collecting ""favours"". The UK managed to declare a part of the Netherlands as British for the purpose of the Lockerbie bombing trial, as the Dutch themselves did with part of Canada during WW2, so a precedent has been set; we can negotiate with any nation we so choose to do the same thing; why not offer to take Ceuta and/or Melilla off Spain's hands for 5 years and process potential immigrants there? Two birds dead right there and no small boats required. As regarding the courts, I do think we need an independent entity to push back on some of the more radical & headstrong government proposals - If I've got it right, that was meant to be the role of The House of Lords, following the formation of the House of Commons, but that's on offer to the highest bidder now, so not independent (if it ever was)."

Re: Woke watch
The whole idea is batshit mental populism designed to snare the usual braindead gammons. And the wasted money is of course getting trousered by the usual floppy-haired chinless wonder Alistairs in the public school network.
Re: Woke watch
Fifth the whole reason it costs 1.8 million per refugee is because so few have been sent due to the legal challenges. If it was allowed to work as intended the cost would be no where near that figure. See how easy it is to shape the narrative by using figures in a misleading way.

Re: Woke watch
"Mike I don't have an issue with off shore processing of asylum applications. It's a good idea in principle. However, the Rwanda thing is bonkers. We are paying Rwanda £1.8 million per asylum seeker. £1.8 million. It's just a distraction from the problem with the aim of the government being to go ""look at Labour, they're against border security"". It's insanity to spend £1.8 million per asylum seeker to send 1% of those arriving on boats each year out there. It's just a gimmick and won't deter anyone from coming. In relation to the point on the courts, we need independent courts because otherwise we end up living in a dictatorship where the government can do what it wants without any brake on its power. So I may not like any particular decision of the court but I'm glad the courts are there. Are you actually saying: a) You think the Rwanda policy is a good idea and b) You think the courts shouldn't have the right to form judgements on legality of action by a government? Or am I misunderstanding you?"
Re: Woke watch
Who is Randa? Is that your lastest victim taken to your mud hut in the poverty stricken village near the Cambodian border? That needs further investigation as sounds very unsafe for poor little Randa

"So had the courts declared Randa safe and the government felt it unsafe without further investment, who would you back?"

"I am convinced that the vast majority of the British public have real concerns about the level of immigration into this country, and want the boats stopped. The courts, the media and the unelected peers etc. are behaving the same way as they did when the country voted to leave the EU and sabotaged it at every opportunity, while screaming racist at all who disagree with them. This is an existential crisis, we are allowing in large numbers of people that we can not accommodate, not to mention the amount of gangsters, and terrorists who are slipping under the net. We need drastic action now, not squeamish unelected do gooders in the House of Lords"

"A good chunk of the world's population likely have compelling, legitimate reasons for wanting to leave their homeland and come to live in the UK. Billions rather than millions of people. What's the cut-off point debs?"
Re: Woke watch
"Debs there’s a legal process for applying to come here if they already have family here. There’s a reason they don’t follow the legal and structured route of coming here. Jump on a boat then claim asylum when you wash up, knowing you won’t be sent back. There are no horrors in France, they’re merely chasing a pound note and a load of free stuff."

"Mike the home office has accepted refugees from Rwanda and the courts have declared it unsafe so are you suggesting that the government should ignore the law? That sets a scary precedent, we have a separation of powers for good reason. Violator I said that might be a possible reason Anyway at work now have a good evening folks."

Re: Woke watch
"A line HAS to be drawn, Examples MUST be made and made known globally that if you attempt to circumvent the established and internationally accepted national immigration process you will not be residing in the UK whilst any case that you may have is under consideration. The UK have declared Rwanda as a safe place, the media even accept advertising it as a suitable holiday spot for global football fans, so how can it be regarded as dangerous? Who are those claiming it to be so and where is their incontrovertible evidence? If they pass the criteria for legal immigration, they'll be allowed into the country, which is, I'm sure, what everybody wants. ""If"" is not ""When"", which it seems certain people can't accept for some reason."

"Mary they’ll be differing reasons, they may already have family here or they may speak the language, or in the case of some of the Afghans who were promised a safe haven but didn’t get one are coming to escape certain death after having helped us in their country. Goose if they are here illegally because they have been trafficked there they wouldn’t be entitled to the things the likes of you claim they get and are probably living as modern slaves, unable to get help as they hadn’t claimed asylum. Not sure what loopholes you think they are getting through"

"Darlo Debs 8:41 What you are overlooking is the numbers of refugees from Syria and the like are taken in by Turkey and Greece. Most do go to neighbouring countries. Not gonna dispute that Debs as is almost certainly the case. But what I can't get my head around is what would compell someone that's managed to escape 'poverty and persecution' in their own country and find a safe haven in France/Italy/Spain/Greece, only to make the far riskier decision to cross the channel on a lilo to come here to the UK? Is it these 'safe' EU nations surreptitiously moving them on, or our generous benefits system? Fucked all ways round imo."
Re: Woke watch
It’s also illegal if they don’t claim asylum. It’s a loophole which makes it easy for absolutely anyone to come here. These people pass through dozens of safe countries to come here and be given a free pass.

"No matter how many times you say it the legal Position hasn’t changed and this crossing on boats aren’t here illegally until they fail In their asylum clai. About 75 - 80 per cent have their claim successfully agreed. We could process them in France of course, but our government didn’t agree to that as they wouldn’t ave had small boat crossings to wind the likes of you up with"
