    The cleaning up council estates includes removing well behaved tenants e.g. the elderly. However the badly behaved ones because they are always "vulnerable" will be able to find a home on them.

    None of the news I read seems to talk about this....
    well every so often they clear it and the UK takes a few thousand ecomigrants to help, obviously we only take the ones named Benjamin Button. The politicians can't quite see why this is a bad idea.

    The only fix is to declare we observe the original Dublin agreement and refuse anyone point blank who has passed through safe countries. We can take orphan children direct from the refugee camps to do our part.

    A centrist labour party is far more dangerous than the current incarnation because people will actually vote for them & while they are trumpeting about things that make them look more right wing, you can bet your bottom dollar they'd still be up to their loony left skullduggery while everyone is looking the other way.

    Why do you think the Corbynists call Blairites right wing?

    I'm glad you read the manifestos of those parties like the creators of such charts do. Or do you think like you they make these things up on their prejudices?

    They at least publish their methodology. You just spout your unsubstantiated opinion.
