UK will finally off shore illegal asylum seekers crossing the channel

Research by whom?

Yes, I do have a fundamental problem with the existence of nation states, so too does the USA, the EU, Russia etc., but don't let that stop you repeating how 'odd' you think it is.

I think it's clear now who is struggling at reading and interpretation. A very basic concept of you not having an influence on who or where you were born seems to have gone right over your head, deary me.

AND. I assume you mean your Republican ancestors here. Who fought against a tyranical oppressor, and hold on, it's name escapes me, it's just over the Irish Sea there.... but anyway... yes, they fought for a better life for themsleves against the country I can't think of (help me out) - and what are these immigrants doing

If they are working in the black economy and are in a country illegally, then they have no rights whatsoever and are wide open to being exploited by their employers (it stands to reason that their employers must be criminals if they are hiring people illegally and off the books).

The idea that the refugees in the black economy are the ones gaming the system and milking their host country is a bit hard to believe, given the vulnerability of their position.

Asylum seekers would actually be willing to work in the NHS, care homes, etc. which are so chronically understaffed and on the verge of collapse.

Unlike these useless freeloaders:

There was an interesting quote in the New Statesman from someone said to be au fait with what the government are really up to : “They never expected the flight to take off. The point of the exercise was to create dividing lines ahead of the next election, which is going to be fought, in part, on a manifesto pledge to leave the European convention on human rights and repeal the Human Rights Act.”

This sounds extremely plausible. Johnson probably is not bothered in the slightest about immigration or refugees crossing the Channel. It's much more about creating divisions in society and the Tories thinking such divisions are a potential vote winner.
