    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.

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

    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.

    We could mix it with spices to get rid of the taste, and call it Chlorination Chicken...
