Some good news:
HTML https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2021/nov/12/brexit-easier-small-boat-crossings-to-reach-uk-refugees-say
[quote]Refugees living in northern France say Brexit has made it
easier for them to reach the UK in small boats, as it emerged
that record numbers of people crossed the Channel in one day.
Despite the worsening weather conditions and the UK government’s
attempts to deter them, 1,185 people made the crossing on
Thursday, according to the Home Office.
Refugees who have fled a variety of conflict zones including
Sudan, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and Eritrea told the Guardian
they believed the fact the UK was no longer part of the EU made
it more appealing to risk the dangerous crossings because they
could no longer be sent back to other European countries under
EU legislation.
...
Previously, when the UK was part of the EU, under a mechanism
known as Dublin the UK could ask other EU countries to take back
people they could prove had passed through safe European
countries before reaching the UK.
The UK could make “take charge” requests and officials were
often able to prove that asylum seekers had passed through other
countries thanks to the Eurodac fingerprint database. But since
Brexit the UK no longer has access to that database, so it is
harder to prove definitively which other European countries
small boat arrivals to the UK have previously passed through.
...
One 19-year-old man from Sudan who is currently in Calais said:
“We believe we will not be safe unless we can reach the UK. Here
the French police beat us and evict us every day from the places
where we are sleeping outside. It brings back bad memories from
Libya where I was locked up and beaten many times by
traffickers. Because of Brexit I believe that once I reach the
UK I will be safe at last. No Dublin, no fingerprints any more.”
He said he had no money to pay smugglers and would try to find a
way to cross with a small group of friends in an abandoned
kayak. “Every night we go to the beach to look for small boats
that have been abandoned and we will try to cross that way.”
[/quote]
But eventually the supply of refugees from France will dry up
unless it is made easy for refugees to reach France. This means
at least keeping Spain and Italy out of rightist control.

But more bad news:
HTML https://www.yahoo.com/news/leave-drowning-migrants-die-face-175734645.html
[quote]Leave drowning migrants to die – or face prosecution,
sailors warned
...
The row centres on a clause in the Home Office’s Nationality and
Borders Bill which removes the words “for gain” and increases
the sentences for smuggling into the UK from 14 years to life
imprisonment.
...
“It is extraordinary that the Bill, and this clause in
particular, seeks to make UK citizens bad Samaritans.
“The clause requires turning a blind eye. It requires people to
watch other people die. It is a sickening extension of the
culture war. It is in breach of our international obligations
and law.
“The proposed changes risk UK-flagged vessels being pushed into
a Kafkaesque Catch-22: assist those in distress and risk
criminal liability or do not assist, breach duties of
international law and witness the deaths of other people.
“This risks criminalising voluntary assistance while failing to
provide for a humanitarian exemption.”
...
“It potentially criminalises people for trying to save life and
putting them on a British shore. That can’t be right,” he
said.[/quote]
So will anyone start assassinating all the MPs who voted for the
bill? They should be the ones dying every day, not refugees.

instead of us just sitting in the Atlantic on fire, everyone is
on fire so we don't look as bad comparatively.[/quote] :D

HTML https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/12/10/anger-boils-as-uk-parliament-endorses-obscene-nationality-bill
[quote]London, United Kingdom – The UK’s controversial
Nationality and Borders bill passed through the House of Commons
this week, prompting outrage from citizens, politicians and
activists who fear its potentially dangerous effect on ethnic
minorities.
Clause 9 of the bill is of particular concern as it will allow
the government to deprive a person of citizenship without having
to notify them.
...
Conservative ministers reportedly cheered the bill’s passing in
Parliament on Wednesday night, with Home Secretary Priti Patel –
the bill’s main backer – saying she was “delighted”.
Amie, a campaigner at No Borders Manchester, said while the
bill’s success in Parliament passing was “disheartening”, it was
not unexpected.
In the run-up to the House of Commons vote, No Borders
Manchester had been organising action around the bill, using
Twitter storms and knowledge-sharing workshops to spread
awareness over its contents and potential effect.
Another clause in the bill would criminalise anyone taking part
in refugee rescue missions in the English Channel.[/quote]
Patel was previously covered here:

HTML https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/12/14/new-free-speech-law-protect-against-wokery-cancel-culture/
[quote]Dominic Raab, the Justice Secretary, wants the
“quintessentially British” human right of freedom of expression
to be given “extra weight”, because of his concerns that it is
being whittled away by privacy concerns and the rise of “cancel
culture”.
His proposed new Bill, to be foreshadowed in a consultation
paper on Tuesday, will reinforce the primacy of Parliament to
protect free speech against the “back door” introduction of
privacy laws through court cases, such as the Duchess of
Sussex’s legal victory over the Mail on Sunday.
It also follows public figures being barred from speaking at
universities and other institutions because of their outspoken
views. In the most recent case, Rod Liddle, the columnist, was
“cancelled” by students when he started speaking at Durham
University.[/quote]
Again, Cancel Culture is not a violation of free speech. No one
was saying Liddle should be charged with a crime. We were merely
saying that hosts are not obliged to amplify his speech.
Cancelling someone is in itself an exercise of free speech by
hosts, each of whom can choose for themselves to amplify some
speech and not other speech according to personal preference.
[quote]The new Bill, overhauling the current Human Rights Act,
will also enshrine another “quintessential British” right to a
jury trial. However, this will be balanced by restrictions on
criminals’ ability to use human rights laws to evade deportation
...
Mr Raab is proposing a new “filter” to weed out “spurious” human
rights cases before they get to court. All cases will have to
get permission to be heard by the courts, with those deemed to
be without merit barred from being put before judges.[/quote]
About Raab:
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominic_Raab
[quote]Dominic Rennie Raab was born on 25 February 1974 in
Buckinghamshire.[1][2][3] He is the son of Jean, a clothes
buyer, and Peter Raab, a food manager for Marks & Spencer.[4]
His father, who was Jewish, came to Britain from Czechoslovakia
in 1938
...
Raab was an active campaigner in the 2016 EU membership
referendum, advocating that Britain should leave the European
Union.
...
On 3 January 2020, the high-level Iranian General, Qasem
Soleimani, was assassinated by the United States, which
considerably heightened the existing tensions between the two
countries. Raab backed the strike, describing the American
action as self-defence.[72] He said that his government had
"always recognised the aggressive threat posed by the Iranian
Quds force".[73]
...
After the 30 June 2020 imposition by the Xi Jinping regime of
the national security law in Hong Kong, Raab described the
following day in the Commons what he saw as a "grave and deeply
disturbing" event
...
Raab welcomed the peace agreement between Israel and the United
Arab Emirates,[87]
...
Raab also welcomed the normalization of relations between Israel
and Sudan saying that it is "a positive step between two valued
friends."[89][/quote]
So, as usual:
HTML https://trueleft.createaforum.com/true-left-vs-false-left/jews-have-nothing-in-common-with-us!/
As for Liddle:
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_Liddle
[quote]Liddle's Immigration Is a Time Bomb was broadcast by
Channel 4 in 2005.
...
In November 2009, again for The Spectator website, he offered "a
quick update on what the Muslim savages are up to,"
...
In August 2018, Liddle wrote an article in The Spectator in
support of Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson's controversial
comments regarding burkas. The article included the subheading,
'My own view is that there is not nearly enough Islamophobia
within the Tory party'.[43]
Giving a speech at Durham University in December 2021, Liddle
claimed that "It is fairly easily proven that colonialism is not
remotely the major cause of Africa’s problems
...
The Guardian reported on 8 January 2010 that the expected
purchase of The Independent by Alexander Lebedev, a Russian
billionaire, would be followed by the appointment of Liddle as
editor.[45][/quote]
Just as Lebedev's amplifying of Liddle is Lebedev's free speech,
our cancelling (ie. not amplifying) of Liddle is our free
speech. Raab wants to make it illegal for us to exercise our
free speech, while calling this "free speech".

HTML https://www.yahoo.com/news/military-set-tackle-channel-migrant-172824334.html
[quote]Military set to tackle Channel migrant crisis as Priti
Patel orders ‘pushback’ of boats to France
...
The Armed Forces will be able to deploy Naval ships, boats and
sophisticated surveillance technology to bolster Border Force,
which is limited to just five cutters.
The Navy will step in if Border Force officers go on strike or
refuse to deploy the pushback tactics, where jet skis block and
redirect migrants’ boats back towards France.
It is designed to combat record numbers of migrants crossing the
Channel in small boats, but has not yet been used - despite
being legally signed off by government lawyers in September.
The Public and Commercial Services Union, which represents some
border and immigration officials, has said it “totally opposes”
the policy and has threatened strike action. It has also joined
with the Care4Calais charity to seek a judicial review of the
tactic, which it claims is illegal.[/quote]
It is! Patel should be assassinated for issuing the order.

Will Ukrainian refugees be sent to Rwanda? We all know the
answer to that. In fact they won't even be sent to
insufficiently luxurious accomodation:

Boris Johnson shuts down calls for second Scottish referendum
[quote]PRIME Minister Boris Johnson has SHUT DOWN calls for a
second Scottish independence referendum.
The leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP) Nicola Sturgeon
today called for a second vote on Scotland's position as part of
the United Kingdom.
The Prime Minister though was quick to dismiss the idea,
claiming people should 'respect the result of the previous
vote'.
