    During the incident, the RNLI said it also helped to ensure the safety of anti-migrant protesters who had entered the sea off Portsmouth.

    Shouldn’t have bothered. If they don’t want lifeboat services, they shouldn’t get in to situations where they need them.

      Are you really dense enough to believe that this country’s problems are migrants’ fault, and not the privatisation of everything, and the inevitable myriad tax loopholes/“strategies” exploited by the companies that run the aforementioned everything?

      Before you reply, consider how much the toad lookalike figurehead of the right wing party (that’s up to their ears in dodgy grifting before they even have any power) has invested in certain US based “private healthcare providers”. He’s not even sly about it, his full throated calls for the UK healthcare system to resemble the US model leave no room for misconstruing his intentions.

      This is basic level stuff, but so many allow themselves to be led along by their prejudices, which history has shown, leads nowhere good.

        Are you dense enough to understand that maybe, just maybe, people don’t want entrants from cultures that treat women and LGBTQ+ people horrifically Brits and sponge off the state (that’s us)? The constant news cycle of migrant crime has helped people like me make up my mind.

        That fact you think this is a right wing talking point is hilarious. I’m a Lib Dem party member.

        Companies are shit, government is shit, don’t need to make it worse by getting r4ped going to middle school. Who wants this cheap labour force anyway? Must be the oligarchs and CEOs, cos they’re the ones that benefit.

        Note we are talking about illegal migrants and failed asylum seekers here.

        Afghans have never done anything to hurt me or my friends. Dickheads like you, meanwhile…
