That's as much as I could expect. It will be interesting to find out their reasons. I would hope that some checks on them have been taken at our end, but my expectations are low. I can imagine Rwanda jumping at the chance to offload those it sees as undesirable, and on our side, doing a...

I don't miss the point at all. I respect your opinion and knowledge of Rwanda, but you are wrong when you claim Rwanda to be safe. It patently isn't. If rebels cross the border intent on continuing genocide, then Rwanda is not safe! What needs to happen before you concede that it is unsafe? I'm...

What does Joey Barton think of this news?

6 nil then. We've played a blinder. Took back control, got Brexit done. What a result.

But during the intervening periods between the genocide and the multiple fatality incidents, Rwandan society is incredibly tolerant, peaceful, safe and positive.

Why isn't Rwanda in the list of top 11 safest countries in Africa in that link? You need to go to Rwanda and meet some Rwandans.

Why are people in exile? How many are in exile? If the number is more than zero, there is at the very least, a question mark over whether Rwanda is a safe country, no? If it were a safe country, they wouldn't be in exile would they? They would be living happily in Rwanda. If a Rwandan-in-exile...

You're going to have to come up with more extreme views than that. A few years ago, Priti Patel came up with the idea of a wave machine to deter the boats. She evidently thought that asylum seekers hadn't undergone enough trauma sailing over treacherous waters, so the ones that survive should...

I remember that leaflet. It was a shocker. Notice that in addition to the countries 'set to join the EU', Syria and Iraq are coloured in pink, a lighter hue of red, to signal that they could be next.

I pointed out a couple of contributors had noticed inaccuracies in a short comment by @Flagship. What was his response? He asked if he and I were neighbours and then a day or two later, listed all the pubs in Fiveways and Patcham he thought I might have been in. i.e. he went off on some...

Breaking stop the boats news: Record numbers of small boats are forecast as migrants bring forward their sea crossings so they can arrive in good time to watch Nigel Farage on I'm a celebrity.

That's the first time I've come across that speech. I'm drawn to this: '“People who choose to come across the Channel illegally from another safe country have already showed contempt for our laws,” she said. That's 'showed contempt for our laws'. She has just written in the Telegraph...

Here's the BBC article on Suella Braverman's plan: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-67446101 The highlight for me is this: 'Mrs Braverman said the PM's proposed legislation should ignore "the entirety" of the Human Rights Act and the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), as well...

I don't know. What football team do you really support?

Two other contributors have corrected you on two inaccuracies in your short sentence. Best of luck with your next post.

I've had it up to here with facts, experts and their data. 'I have it on good authority, from Professor Ludwig von Krumbein, Emeritus professor of FACTS, UCL London, et cetera, et cetera'. It's all f*****g bollocks. Give me opinion, assumption, supposition, implication, inferences, voices in...

'I suppose by implication you will now claim that the arrival of thousands of illegal and unchecked immigrants every year is something that the majority of the British people relish.' You made a prediction. Like, in the future. Like, it hasn't happened yet. So that isn't true either.

Nobody is claiming that.

He's got potential. 'Good morning, from a lonely beach in Kent. I've interviewed the passengers who have just arrived on a small boat, and they all confirmed to me that the Rwanda scheme is working as a deterrent' - Home Secretary James Cleverley.

Just think. Liz Truss cost the country 30 billion, so the Liz Truss fiasco cost the country 214 times the cost of the Rwanda fiasco (so far). Therefore the Rwanda operation is a bargain. You can prove anything with statistics.
