5 years of national service if you arrive without documents and have no place for deportation.
They will have food and a place to sleep, even learn the native language. Also earning a wage while doing national service for the country they are looking to call home.
There’s definitely something fishy going on with this sub
It’s becoming very common to see these small boat stories (not actually ‘news’ by the way, we all know it’s happening), which see some very quick responses with the usual dog whistles.
Over time, the more sane elements of Reddit will engage and balance out the comments.
Really feels like right wing astroturfing, and it’s been going on for at least a year.
I often see these posts quite early also, and usually challenge the loonies, usually rewarded with a couple downvotes. But again, this balances out over 24 hours or so.

And crudely £25,000,000 has just been added to the tax bill (and straight into the pockets of hotel owners most likely – am assuming £1000 per week crudely, even if not all of it goes on accommodation I’m assuming some will). They need to have genuine legal routes in (which I believe already exist) and robust processing and routes for removal. Like on a crude level – I’m sure that £25,000,000 could be repurposed to fund a processing centre? E.g. say 100 staff on £30K per year average = £3,000,000, find yourself a Government building a Council wants to offload or rent and start processing? (Multiply by 3 centres say for £15M total?). I’m sure I’m grossly over simplifying but keep doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome is nuts.
Seems this would only stop if they run out of boats.
This Rwanda plan must come into force. Anyone landing illegally goes there to be processed without a timeline. Australia did it with Nauru. Wha’s stopping UK?

Are these daily stats not getting boring now? We’ve been reading these same numbers almost every single day for years.
How about this, every morning you wake up, just assume 500 – 1,000 new people have washed up on these shores.
Then just remember to keep calm and carry on folks.
Stop any and all forms of benefits, housing, health care etc for non citizens. These would stop sharpish. When these working age men realise they don’t get money and hotels immediately and had to live on the street they would stop.
Are we ever going to do something about this, or is this just life now… Im tired boss…

What’s up with this data – is it trying to say that irregular migrants only come across on boats on the weekend …
