I personaly don’t care about these semantics, it’s purely a distraction from right wing excesses coming to fruition.Cruella De Devilled is not being ironic, Nige Farage wasn’t being Ironic with his posters of brown people crossing hills during the brexit debate, David Cameron didn’t use the phrse “hordes” to be cuddly, It was part of shaping a mindset that poor desperate people coming to gut us. The profiling of Albaniains as gansters,just another tier to their disgusting hill of hate.
As for illegal ,don’t make me laugh,not ione of these people cares about the illegality or otherwise of crossing as ea and handing yourself into authorites,or their saftey. Every right winger on this site was moaning about immigration for years ,then they cottoned on to adding illegal” tpo their sentence to appear not racist.Now it’s oretending it’s about safety. I’d respect them more if they were truthful.
The reason these peole have to use the channel is every safe channel has been blocked,we also take in considerably fewer than our neighbour in Europe,not even in the top ten.
