    Because it would mean people trying to get to the UK illegally from a safe country would be sent to Rwanda instead. So unless they are trying to get to Rwanda intentionally, they’ll stop coming into the UK

      I have to assume at this point you are deliberately misusing words? Because I believe both you and I know that it’s not illegal to cross into the UK from France to claim asylum. And I’m fairly certain we’ve established this.

      Can we carry on in reality instead of in your Dreamworld?

        It should be illegal. That’s why people are annoyed.

          Why? And also, it’s not? So why are we having this conversation

            That’s the national conversation. Might be why people are flying the flags.

              Ahahah there we are. I figured the mask would slip eventually.

              So in your view “ignore the law or we’ll be racist” makes sense?

                Flying the flag of England isn’t illegal.

                  No but not processing asylum claims and resting refugees as criminals is.

                  You said so earlier, you were speaking second hand about flags in England as you had no first hand experience

                    That doesn’t mean I’m not British, what are you on about.

                    And you’re the one saying I’m not well researched
