No just the BBC & Guardian (slaver)

You would have thought a migrant cattle drive would make the papers!

The US Democrats are to the right of the Tory party. So while Priti Patel is all talk they actually action things like this - https://www.cbsnews.com/news/immigra...eback-haitians

The US has like over a million people illegal cross their border every year. Central and South America is the most violent region in the world with the most murders per capita. Mexico is a capitalist country with a properly elected government with no citizens facing persecution from the government. 100% of those illegal border crossers are illegal economic migrants.

Sure that's bad optics but its absolutely insane what they allow to happen, there isn't another country in the world that can even compare to what's happening in the USA with its southern border.

Essentially, Mexico is to the US as France is to the UK (just on 'slightly' different scales). People pass through these countries to get to the fabled promised land.

So they have the equivalent of 0.3% of their population as illegals every year? 1M/333M people.

Migration watch estimate 70-150,000 illegals a year in a population of 68 million. that is 0.11->0.22%

Thats a million just crossing the border illegally, doesn't include visa overstays. There's like 10k people who cross English channel a year.... and I do believe most british would support almost any means necessary to make it stop.

well as we don't check how many go home its likely a lot more overstay in the UK. As above it could be 150,000 a year or more.
