Tiny village votes for 'independence' from UK amid asylum seeker row(manchestereveningnews.co.uk) |
> the Government announced plans to house 1,256 male asylum seekers in a nearby former military base.
It seems a bad idea to put them all in one place where they will outnumber the local residents almost 4-to-1
I'm not even 100% clear whether they're allowed off the site!
The asylum system leaves people in an extremely unpleasant limbo for a long time while it makes decisions, based purely on the false belief that they're uniquely likely to be criminals.
This is why the hotels and bnbs were a bad idea.

And the mice voted to bell the cat.
It's been going on for some time now.
Oh no, the people are at a breaking point about their taxes being spent on migrants who increase the crime rate, have raped 200k white women/children in the past 2 decades.. All while their own children can't afford rent to live on their own. Those darn racists.
How did the migrants get to Martha's Vineyard?
They were of course removed from the community swiftly.
There's a rather uncomfortable interview with a local resident (of many years) who is Australian with a Jamaican husband, saying "well great now I know all my neighbours hate foreigners".
> Although their travel to Massachusetts was facilitated by DeSantis, the migrants who arrived on Martha’s Vineyard on Wednesday came from Texas. The DeSantis administration paid an aviation company, Vertol Systems Company Inc., $615,000 to transport the migrants from San Antonio to the exclusive vacation enclave.
So Florida spent $615,000 to pick up some people from Texas and dump them on an island in Massachusetts?
...and you imagine that this makes the people in Massachusetts look bad?
Yeah. I don't know what to tell you, dude.
EDIT: other than RoI.
This is why the problem hasn't been fixed. You can't say "just do X" when X isn't legal. Do you really think nobody's thought of this? That the government actually likes being in this position of the past decade or so?
So don’t be so sure about “can’t” versus “won’t”.
But that aside: why come to the UK?
The UK chooses to interpret and enforce them as they do. Other european countries are within ECHR limits and deal with it entirely differently.
The UK elites no longer have the EU to blame for their policies, so they speak about ECHR. On the continent people barely know ECHR exists.
Boris Johnson did Brexit "to stop the immigrants" ... and opened the floodgates. The very opposite of what his campaign promised. The very opposite of WHY the British public wanted Brexit.
