Embarrassing.
There’s only one lot frothing on here at the moment.A little bit of meat thrown to the frothers to distract from the PMs law breaking. Can we get any lower? I'm sure Johnson will find a way.
Fantastic idea, might put a few off coming in the first place.Embarrassing.
I assume that was Boris idea and they jumped on boardDenmark has been doing it for a while
More obsessed with Cake-Gate than anything else.There’s only one lot frothing on here at the moment.
true. They are only happy when they have something to moan about. It's what keeps them going. It's what they live for.There’s only one lot frothing on here at the moment.
Exactly this, it’s on the up as a country, what’s wrong with Rwanda ?What happens if I claim to be an asylum seeker for a free flight to Rwanda.
I have never been there
No, we don't."T and we have a labour shortage."
If we have a labour shortage then the points based system is designed to bring in people through the correct channels to offer the country something we need, not anyone and everyone will do approach. It doesn’t work.No, we don't.
They signed the deal last year although haven't sent anyone as yet.Denmark has been doing it for a while
The numbers arriving here are still very small compared to other European countries, correct. We are also, in land mass terms, very small compared to other European countries.The Danes do something similar and have also signed an agreement with Rwanda. I don't know if any are sent there in practice.
Still feels bizarre though. The numbers arriving are still very small compared to other European countries and we have a labour shortage. I wonder if sub-Saharan Africans can go straight to the Rwandan centres and miss out the getting-to-Kent bit.
You would have to claim asylum in Rwanda. There would then be a chance of your asylum being granted and you may be sent to Preston, are you willing to take the risk.What happens if I claim to be an asylum seeker for a free flight to Rwanda.

Does land mass matter, especially compared to Scandinavia (for example) where half of it is virtually inhabitable?The numbers arriving here are still very small compared to other European countries, correct. We are also, in land mass terms, very small compared to other European countries.
It matters when immigrants illegal or otherwise all want to be in the major cities. I don’t know if they want to live for example in the highlands of Scotland or on dartmoor.Does land mass matter, especially compared to Scandinavia (for example) where half of it is virtually inhabitable?
But it's the same for other countries which is my point, they're not living in huts out in the Fjords.It matters when immigrants illegal or otherwise all want to be in the major cities. I don’t know if they want to live for example in the highlands of Scotland or on dartmoor.
This country is overcrowded, end of.But it's the same for other countries which is my point, they're not living in huts out in the Fjords.
Enjoy your tripWhat happens if I claim to be an asylum seeker for a free flight to Rwanda.

So landmass doesn't matter?This country is overcrowded, end of.
Obviously it's more populated than Pakistan as half of that is the Himalayas, which again is my point.As is most of Scotland and Wales, The Lake District, The Peak District etc.
The UK is one of Europe's most heavily populated places. It's more populated than Pakistan.
Just exactly, apart from disagreement for the sake of it, is your point.Obviously it's more populated than Pakistan as half of that is the Himalayas, which again is my point.
That depends on how much of the landmass is habitable and fertile for growing crops, building reservoirs, sewage treatment plants etc.So landmass doesn't matter?
Exactly.That depends on how much of the landmass is habitable and fertile for growing crops, building reservoirs, sewage treatment plants etc.
But how much of Britain's fertile landmass will be used up to create the necessary reservoirs etc to cater for an increased immigrant population, never mind the increase by birthrate of the current inhabitants? How many more villages would you be prepared to put under water?Exactly.
We've not put a village under water since the early 60s despite there being 20 million more people here since then.But how much of Britain's fertile landmass will be used up to create the necessary reservoirs etc to cater for an increased immigrant population, never mind the increase by birthrate of the current inhabitants? How many more villages would you be prepared to put under water?
Precisely, so landmass doesn't matter, like I said.Population per square miles.
Pakistan 690
UK 717
England 1,118
And how long can we go without doing so?We've not put a village under water since the early 60s despite there being 20 million more people here since then.
That's real scary!You would have to claim asylum in Rwanda. There would then be a chance of your asylum being granted and you may be sent to Preston, are you willing to take the risk.
60 years so far.And how long can we go without doing so?
If the utility companies got their arses in gear and actually maintained the network instead of paying dividends, there would be billions of gallons not leaking away like now.But how much of Britain's fertile landmass will be used up to create the necessary reservoirs etc to cater for an increased immigrant population, never mind the increase by birthrate of the current inhabitants?

Fair point, not long ago we were living in a “pariah state...plague island...” food banks everywhere... abject poverty...health services in tatters,soon to be only available for the wealthy... need I go onExactly this, it’s on the up as a country, what’s wrong with Rwanda ?
That doesn't answer the question, Lytham. Like Wiz says, one way the utility companies could delay the necessity for a greater water supply is proper maintenance, but sooner or later we'll hit that wall.60 years so far.
If they stopped the free benefits nhs and housing that would deter the illegals from leaving the safety of France and coming here.The human right lawyers will be making thousands with all the court cases to come.Looks like the idea has already upset a few LWMA's.
Hopefully all the illegals that are already here are rounded up and also shipped Rwanda.
This country has been a soft touch for too long.
And there's never been a higher rate of covid in the populace, the health service has the highest waiting lists its ever had and there's never been as many going to food banks. So yes, you need to look at the facts.Fair point, not long ago we were living in a “pariah state...plague island...” food banks everywhere... abject poverty...health services in tatters,soon to be only available for the wealthy... need I go on
