Next they'll be saying we can't have blue passports any more.

Glad to see also they have bowed to public opinion, and dropped that ridiculous Reesmogg garbage about bringing back imperial measurements.
Honestly, that Victorian throwback needs lashing to a yard arm.

Rees mogg when he was a kid, jeez, who cut his hair? Stevie Wonder?

Poser wearing a monocle, obviously trying out his image as an eccentric anachronism.

Nice cashmere coat.

Are we left to believe that those "impositions" aren't actually that intrusive or important enough to change ?

Most of the EU rules we were severely subjected to have turned out to be pretty mundane and not worth changing.

They'll mostly be changing the ones about taxing the rich and giving to the poor.

The net migration figure for 2022, due to be released next week, is estimated to be at least 700,000 - according to analysis by the centre-right think tank the Centre for Policy Studies.
This would be a record high, driven in part by the Ukraine resettlement scheme, but mostly by an increase in people coming to the UK to work and study from outside the EU


And brexit hasn't cured the immigration issue either. Just changed where arriving from

Hitchens gave his view on the topic at the weekend. Aren't we doing well in the asylum rejection claims compared to Germany and the like.

It's not relevant how well or bad we do "against" others.

What matters is what's happening here, or not happening.

I thought having your claim rejected might lead you onto where it would have a good chance of being accepted.

Bananas grow curvy because of the way they develop on the plant in relation to the sun.

Bloody stupid to alter nature!
