Will immigration/Boat people be a feature
In the July 4th general Election.
Immigration is normally low down on the list of the voting public priority.
But with high immigration and a high number of refuges crossing the Channel and Rwanda plan.
Will it feature in people voting.

It is a priority issue for Tory voters - hence why their support has collapsed.

I'm voting "not sure".
In fact, I think the current 25 point gap will be much less before the election as people see the possible horrors of Lammy, Rayner, Reeves and Starmer being at the helm.
They can do far more damage than a few immigrants.

Lefties tell us that Sunak has failed to reduce the numbers of illegal immigrants crossing the channel and Tory supporters have said the same .
Both think it’s because Sunak has been ineffective and or disingenuous.
How could it not be a part of the election narrative?

It will be a factor for some, but not the biggest. People worry about things that affect them personally most. Like the cost of living crisis, energy prices, housing, NHS etc.

Lefties tell us we need more and grown ups know that we do not . |

Like the cost of living crisis, energy prices, housing, NHS etc. Cheap energy and net zero. Better affordable housing and mass-immigration. Things cheaper with a wave of a magic wand. NHS for the world.
I doubt anyone cares about the machete waving third world gangs.

Maybe Labour will tell us where the money will come from .
If they are honest they will admit it will come from pensioners and middle class taxation ..
Anyone doing well will be taxed to the hilt.

Like the cost of living crisis, energy prices, housing, NHS etc. More and more immigration legal and illegal is having a negative effect on individuals and families. Communities are fractured, local work is snapped up, wages continue to be depressed, translation costs soar, history is negated, education suffers, health queues increase, importation of those who hate us carries on apace. It impacts everywhere and it is not just blaming migrants but it is clear immigration is a severe problem for many. |

Will immigration/Boat people be a feature In the July 4th general Election. It should be, but I suspect that both sides will be keen to play it down seeing as neither have any real plan to deal with it. Immigration is normally low down on the list of the voting public priority. Indeed, although I suspect that many have had enough of it - especially those that have seen the effects first hand. |

www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/more-than-10-000-illegal-migrants-have-crossed-channel-so-far-this-year-gb-news-reveals/ar-BB1mYRpc?ocid=msedgntp&pc=U531&cvid=3232bbcd31944ef6a86e8a8e1a3f71ff&ei=24I love the Government maths, spend untold millions setting up a scheme to send a thousand illegal immigrants to Rwanda, this will deter others, what about all the others who do keep coming? oh, we give them an amnesty, but haven't you already done that several times at Westminster party HQ? well yes but this time it's different, how so? if you had secured the borders the day you said we had left the EU it would have saved untold billions not cost untold millions in a scheme that was a complete red herring. Whilst in the background the billions keep escalating. Now you have a party that has committed political suicide on behalf of what exactly? Even in the midst of Covid border force were at the beach with tea and sandwiches to greet the new arrivals, how is this a border force securing a border? What you are is born liars and society on the whole is relied on to be same.

The cost of housing Unlawful entry into the UK is costing much more than the Rwanda scheme about £8 million per day, on top of that the admin costs, the cases being heard in our Courts when we try to deport the undesirables, even if they are convicted of serious crimes, some Countries in the EU are looking at similar schemes as Rwanda.
