Least worst is the filth to go up automatically, because that means we’ve still got a chance of promotion ourselves

So it’s daft wanting a problem solved but not being too hung up about by which method it is achieved, but sensible for wanting a problem to continue because it’s not your preferred solution that’s being trialled to fix it?

There are far too many variables involved in crime and prisons to try and link it a to simplistic argument about deterrence with immigration. However for examples of deterrence working there’s obviously Australia where the number of boats increased dramatically when their offshore processing was suspended, as well as in the States when the number of migrants crossing the border massively increased once Biden reversed some of Trumps harsher policies

No, but it sounds incredibly partisan to me as I believe anything that severely reduces the number making the journey is by definition done properly. I don’t care how it’s achieved (within reason obviously before anybody starts spouting exaggerated scenarios) as long as the boats stop coming

I misread the title, yes that’s the worst option

Why is it a stupid question? Herman above has said he hopes the policy fails because it’s not his preferred one, and by the diversions from yourself I’m going to assume you think exactly the same. Also a significant reduction is exactly what the policy is supposed to achieve. If you think any policy is ever going to be 100% successful you’re living in a dreamland

Nothing will change

That’s the answer I was expecting. You want the policy to fail because it’s not your preferred method

I define success as a significant reduction in those crossing the Channel. If this policy helps achieve that then I will deem it a success. If it fails then I hope the next idea that’s tried is successful. Do you WANT this policy to reduce the numbers making that journey, even if you don’t THINK it will?

Because I’m interested to know whether you don’t want to stop the boats at all, or whether you just don’t want this policy to succeed in stopping the boats because it’s not one you approve of?

Another one that won’t answer the question asked, you’d make good politicians Do you want the policy to succeed or fail?

So you only want the problem fixed if it’s done via your preferred method? I personally don’t care who stops the boats or how they do it, as long as they are stopped. It’s a problem that has been allowed to fester for too long, and I want a solution before we start seeing the violence that’s happening in Ireland where hotels housing migrants are now regularly being attacked

Beat us in the playoff final obviously

Because Starmer is a retail politician who doesn’t believe in anything. Nationalisation of the railways is popular with the electorate, but would involve taking on the vested interests of the rail companies so instead he finds a fudge that sounds like he’s bringing back under public ownership while in reality still letting private interests cream money off the top

Ben-Gvir?
