You're quoting the statistic about how many people were stopped on landing or shortly afterwards to tell me how they're arriving "unchecked".

Theresa May introduced the Hostile Environment, and Priti Patel made it even more strict. If the Home Office could refuse asylum applications for any reason whatsoever, they would. Despite that, the vast majority of asylum applications are successful.

So they are not cheating the system and they do have the right to be here.

Besides which, how many people do you think we're talking about? Small boats. The clue is in the name. It's not like Dunkirk out there.

Since the republicans won't do anything about gun control, the boys will probably find them useful to plug gunshot wounds.

You think that the small boats are unchecked? That they are not intercepted and the people detained?

In any case, that is only illegal because the last government made it so that you cannot claim asylum upon landing. They are not criminals in any other sense.

Criminals are not being let into the country unchecked. That is not a valid concern.

A valid concern would be that foreign actors are feeding false information to the British public to destabilize the country.

Inciting religious hatred is what it is. That is a crime and it warrants prosecution, not criticism.

He has those weird psychological tricks, like standing funny, having a long tie, and the handshake thing. Getting people to say "hello, how are you" to him is probably one of those, and he's upset that she sidestepped it.

No argument with the other points that you made, but I would much rather that they make the journey times longer and accurate, than shorter, but unlikely. Once a train is running behind and off-schedule, it only gets more and more late.

Let's start with judges who were appointed by Trump recusing themselves from cases involving Trump.

He's just a confused old man.

You're thinking about Mr Biden again, sir. Don't you worry about it. Let's check your diaper and get you back to the TV Room, OK? Don't forget your special red hat.

It would be the maximum possible sentence for assault.

On Armistice Day, EDL protesters marched towards the Cenotaph (without permission) and launched fireworks that were intended to hit people and did strike policemen in the face. Let's see if they get 5 years.
