They would get a UK lawyer to say they get travel sickness and are a conscientious objector. ????

Travel sickness could not be an objection. How else did they get to the UK without travelling?

 

Conscientious objectors could be trained as stretcher bearers and medical assistants. 

 

https://www.sss.gov/register/alternative-service/conscientious-objectors/#:~:text=A conscientious objector is one,of moral or religious principles.

 

Conscientious objectors opposed to serving in the military will be placed in the Selective Service Alternative Service Program. This program attempts to match COs with local employers. Many types of jobs are available, however the job must be deemed to make a meaningful contribution to the maintenance of the national health, safety, and interest. Examples of alternative service are jobs in:

conservation
caring for the very young or very old
education
health care
Length of service in the program will equal the amount of time a man would have served in the military, usually 24 months.

 

They would also get food, accommodation, a small salary, perhaps even learn a trade.

https://www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles/conscientious-objectors-civilian-public-service

 

Meanwhile in the UK, there are thousands of homeless British people and thousands of British families families partly or wholly dependent on food banks.

 

They should have the highest priority for access to accommodation, food and jobs. Everybody else such as illegal immigrants which is basically what the thread is about should be much lower in the list.

 

If this sounds racist (and it will to a lot of people) they should seriously think why many British people are suffering, whilst illegal immigrants, which is what they are, get a greater priority.

Tories have to replace the cheap workers they lost through Brexit.

(their corporate donors demand it)

& Labour figure the new immigrants (new poor) will vote for them.

So everyone's happy (apart from normal UK citizens - esp. the poor who have to compete for jobs and housing with this foreign peasants).

 

And PURLEEZE, these <>s are NOT asylum seekers - they're just chancers being encouraged by WEF types.

 

In reality, both party 'leaders' are globalist WEF sock puppets so things will have to get a LOT worse in the UK before they get better (assuming the people ever demand change/put their foot down - unlikely).

 

Seems 'THEY' (wokey neo marxists) have completely captured all parties in the UK (& Europe) and UK people won't be able to vote ourselves out of this ongoing <>show.

 

I've switched to watching US politics - much better characters and plotlines.

TBH it's just as fake unbelievable though.

 

PS. I wouldn't be smug about 'escaping' to Thailand - if the west continues to 'fall' you will feel the effects (see the fallout from the alleged 'pandemic' for starters). 

If the weight of all the limitless print and spend & mental woke policies cause the financial system, markets etc fall apart, CBDCs introduced etc, where will that leave foreign retirees? Idk and nor do you to be honest.

 

Good Luck.  Interesting times

I am not sure how you reached that conclusion, but IMHO it is completely wrong.

 

Do you have a link for that or are you expecting posters to simply accept your word?

 

Because I did a simple search and came up with this link.

 

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/tripling-of-fines-for-those-supporting-illegal-migrants

 

Fines are to be more than tripled for employers and landlords who allow illegal migrants to work for them or rent their properties, in the biggest shake up of civil penalties since 2014, the Home Secretary announced today (Monday 7 August).

The civil penalty for employers, which was last increased in 2014, will be raised to up to £45,000 per illegal worker for a first breach from £15,000, and up to £60,000 for repeat breaches from £20,000.

 

and this one.

 

https://www.gov.uk/penalties-for-employing-illegal-workers

 

You can be sent to jail for 5 years and pay an unlimited fine if you’re found guilty of employing someone who you knew or had ‘reasonable cause to believe’ did not have the right to work in the UK.

This includes, for example, if you had any reason to believe that:

they did not have leave (permission) to enter or remain in the UK
their leave had expired
they were not allowed to do certain types of work
their papers were incorrect or false.

 

Now what employers would willingly face penalties like that? No sensible person of any political party or even the WEF, would be willing to face a penalty such as that.

 

There is more information in the link.

More candidates competing for finite unskilled work = lower wages.

More people competing for finite housing = higher house prices / rent

 

That's why 'normal' people don't want immigration.

And also why 'elites' / rich people do.

 

Understand?

Not failing. You are wrong.

 

As with most things, you fail to look at the bigger picture. There is a backlog, I agree, but applications are being processed. 

 

It's not a case of "oh look. He looks OK. Rubber stamp". It's a long process. Add to that the major rise in arrivals and applications, there are always going to be delays.

 

 

OK, if you say so:

I am extremely confident that our corrupt government has given a ridiculously overpriced contract for the provision of a poor quality service at an overinflated price to one of their own. That's what corrupt governments do and that is what our corrupt Tory government has done in this case.

They didn’t have to come to the UK, could have easily stayed in France, oh wait a minute. I forgot they can get a better deal in UK than France or any of the other countries they transited through. Another thing, why is is so many supposedly refuges are young men. More than 87% who arrive on the small boats are your males.

Utter garbage.

 

Nobody objects to bogus asylum seekers being deported.

 

The problem is sorting out those who are bogus,

 

The Government has failed and is failing to clear asylum applications.

To do so would entail first reviewing their asylum claims, something the Government is failing to do, hence the ever increasing backlog.

It’s the woke attitudes like yours that has the UK and other western countries forking out huge amounts of cash to address the problem. This money could and should be spent on pensioners and our own homeless. I’m sure many sleeping on the street tonight would love to be offered a bed on the Bibby.

Nope. It's the ignorance of people like you who don't understand three simple concepts:

 

 1 - Failed applicants are deported

 2 - Successful applicants can be put to work in one of the many industries that have been struggling to fill vacancies since brexit, thus boosting productivity and tax revenues than could be spent on funding the pension and homeless issues 

 3 - If you choose to not process claims, as the current government is doing, then the cost of housing the pending applicants will continue to increase.

 

It's so simple, I'm always surprised that anybody ever falls for it. Lucky the amount of people in the UK that are getting taken in is statistically irrelevant these days. They seem to be overly represented on this forum, for some reason.

 

It's fine to be angry. But please just do the most basic level of research, try applying just a tiny amount of critical thinking, and channel your anger at the correct people.

IMHO the correct people are those that choose not to use the correct channels and simply turn up.

 

They are called illegal immigrants, which is what EVERY person who tries to enter any country without a legal entry visa is.

Asylum seekers have been told boarding the Bibby Stockholm barge is "not a choice" and those who refuse will no longer receive government support.

 

The first group of 15 people boarded the vessel on Monday, but 20 refused.

 

If they do not move on to the accommodation barge by the end of Tuesday, their housing assistance could be withdrawn, government sources said.
