Ann Widdecombe calls out the contradictions in claiming economic migrants are asylum seekers

Published

on



‘What genuine asylum seeker who is really fleeing somewhere, having arrived in a place of safety, would throw himself onto a boat and go to sea, courting enormous danger just in order to reach another place of safety? Makes no sense at all.’

Ann Widdecombe on economic migrants.

    Actually….even in the US….I’m all for helping asylum seekers. But the majority of those trying to enter The US, Canada and England are NOT SEEKING asylum. It’s very sad, nevertheless. Where ever they are from they have no future, no work, no food, no way to make a living. There are NO (or few to none) programs in their own countries to help people and families. They live on the streets, or dirt roads or in shacks with no plumbing and likely hijacked electricity. The governments DO NOT HELP THE MASSES and there are more and more desperate people leaving those countries everyday….just to survive. They want better which is a human condition. The US, Canada and England ARE UNABLE to HOLD, HOUSE and feed the whole world knocking at their doors. This is a 3rd world country problem and those 3rd world countries are VERY HAPPY TO SEE THEIR POOR PEOPLE LEAVE. The top 3 prior mentioned 1st World Countries should MAKE ARRANGEMENTS with the 3rd world countries WHOS peoples are doing the most migrating
    to give those populations a REASON not to migrate and stay within their countries and culture. IT IS IMPERATIVE the nations act on this VERY SOON. 80 or so years ago many of our global countries came together and created NATO. Global countries have created the United Nations. IT IS TIME the global countries come together and create a “United organization” to help people’s IN NEED all around the world where large populations have no way of getting sustenance. This is imperative. LOOK AHEAD. What is the benefit if this is accomplished. And what is the DOWNSIDE if this is NEVER accomplished. Think about it.

    Well watched news yesterday and as many as 250.000 British familys with kids are living in tents. Bloody fumming because the government stated that it's against human rights to put illegal immigrants in tents but it's ok for British familys who have paid their taxes and voted for this fu*##king government to live in shit in tents'. Oh Rishi what have this government done! I cry for my people!!!

    As I keep saying, our Government is a foreigner so he has no interest in Britain. They're deliberately letting these men into our country, because when there's enough of them, they are going to loot our shops and homes, and kill us. It's so bloody obvious.

    Hello Anne, our main problem is our "great friend" Emanuel Macron, a man who, in truth, wants to see GB sink into the abyss. Here is a possible answer to our problem, and it would be a win win for us. Tell Macron that if he does not end this invasion {that is what it is!) all French fishing licences will be cancelled, effective in 24 hours. He will either comply, at least to some extent, and British fishermen will be ecstatic. Win/Win.

    Also crack down on these once wonderful Border force people, for they are fast becoming complicit traitors. Lastly a few motor torpedo boats sailing up and down the channel would not be amiss. Damn him he even refuses to allow UK to send men to France to help him. What more proof do you need to see what a treacherous "friend" he is?? And lastly for goodness sake STOP paying him…not 1 more pound. The win win for us, either less or no invaders or NO French boats plundering our fishing waters.

    This is ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFULL, British People have the Pleasure of paying for these Illegals, Britains need to Demonstrate and Riots, bring the Country to a Standstill, to get them all sent back, we are being INVADED

    Send France and the EU the bill to pay for all the costs we have to bear dealing with them . And insist they must pay it , it is not optional. Bet they would police it better then. Giving them money hasn’t worked so let try charging them instead.

  18. @kenny7395

    The migrants would swim back across the channel if we told them they'll get a bill every week for their keep.these migrants are after money.thats it.

    We signed The Deal in the 50’s, to accept migrants and I really don’t see ANY PRIME MINISTER getting us out of this mess, created by US in the first place.

A.I. facial recognition tool to detect adult migrants posing as children

Published

on

By



An AI facial recognition tool that aims to detect adult migrants posing as children will be deployed at the UK’s borders next year.

The software will estimate a person’s age by analysing photographs of them taken at the border.

The Home Office says the technology will make it easier to identify adult migrants “attempting to game the system”, after initial testing indicated “promising performance and accuracy”.

But Human Rights Watch urged the government to scrap the scheme, describing it as “unproven technology” that will undermine the protections vulnerable children are entitled to.
