The challenge facing Joe Biden at the US-Mexico border – BBC News

Published

on



President Joe Biden has promised to address the migrant surge at the US-Mexico border.

In a change to Donald Trump’s policy, unaccompanied children are now not turned back at the border. Some are being temporarily housed in cramped conditions. But are Biden’s policies responsible?

The BBC’s Ros Atkins takes an in-depth look at the situation, and whether the president can match his words with actions.

    Wait a second, the first clip you roll Joe Biden says “ what do you do with a un-accompanied child that comes to the border? What do you? Do take them from their mother”?!?
    I thought the kid was un-accompanied! What a potato head, Mail-in-Order president. Worse is the reporter goes on as if that statement was smart. However we have to acknowledge that Joe Biden said Hunter Biden is the smartest man he knows. Hunter Biden: videos himself weighing out crack cocaine with his hookers. So ya, there ya go.

    THE FACTS NOT THE DEMS TRUTH

    China Joe is letting the Mexican Drug Cartels make $15 Billion this year – must be nice to have a US President backing you. It's not just the Drugs it's the Human Trafficking, Rape, Child Abuse, and Slavery – So that makes him and the DEMS accomplices

    I WONDER HOW MUCH MONEY THE DEMS ARE MAKING ON THIS?

    ALL PART OF THE PLAN – The Middle Class, and small business owners can't work in a True Socialist Nation – THE DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST are making sure of that

    WHO'S REALLY RUINING, UH RUNNING OUR COUNTRY?

    Progressives embrace freedom of choice in personal matters, but advocate for significant government coercion to control the economy and redistribute wealth

    Authoritarian Progressives aka DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST aka the DEM Party – all the same now

    Need deep dive reporting on the conditions in these migrants' home countries–to ignore that, as American media does, is illogical & dishonest. Also, deep dive reporting is missing, and much needed, on exactly which immigration agencies, procedures & protocols were utterly dismantled or gutted by T** admin.

    AOC prefers terrorist groups like Hezbollah and Hamas to fire missiles donated by the Iran regime and kill the people in the region?!
    – Where have illegal immigrants from Del Rio gone?
    Answer: Most of them are now staying in 4 stars hotels all over the USA, enjoying Joe's gift with USA taxpayers money!!.

As national media fangirls over Andy Burnham’s TikTok persona, we ask what the new prime minister is doing right online.

Is social media now the ultimate test of a politician’s authenticity, and could cosying up to influencers set a dangerous precedent in terms of transparency and accountability for those in positions of power?

Two die after helicopters collide mid-air in Greece while battling wildfires | BBC News

Published

on



Two crew members have been killed after two helicopters collided mid-air in Greece while battling wildfires.

A Danish pilot and a Greek fire service liaison officer lost their lives. A British pilot and another Greek co-ordinator on the second helicopter survived.

Video of the incident some 65 km (42 miles) west of the capital Athens shows one of the two Bell helicopters hitting the rotors of the other, which bursts into flames and crashes in a ravine. The other aircraft made an emergency landing.

Wildfires have broken out in Greece this week, leading to mass evacuations. Other European states, including France and Spain, have also suffered devastating blazes during prolonged heatwaves.

The two leased Bell helicopters collided while taking part in efforts to tackle a large wildfire burning on the Attica-Boeotia border.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis expressed his “deepest sorrow” over the accident.

The UK’s prison population today is about 86,500 and there are about 2,400 spare places. Overcrowding has caused chaos across prisons and the courts.

Prime Minister Andy Burnham has now changed the incoming early release scheme for some prisoners in England and Wales, to exclude rapists and some other offenders.

So – what other solutions are there to the increasing pressure facing the system? And can the UK look for ideas from abroad?
