I hate this government more by the day. Cleverly even said more bullshit about stopping boats, the cunt.

I mean, considering 5 people died today due to them, I really think they should be stopped
Oh don't be disingenuous.
There is a complete difference between stopping small boats by targeting the actual problem, and stopping small boats by deporting people to Rwanda.
If the government actually cared about stopping small boats they'd reopen safe migration routes. If you're going to be a government chill, at least be good at it.

To be fair, most people I talk to in the real world about this issue want the Royal Navy to just sink the boats 😂 It's a bit harsh, but the Rwanda plan seems pretty moderate compared to the general opinion.
You should remind those people that the Rwanda deal is two way, the UK is taking vulnerable refugees from Rwanda in exchange.
So that would embolden them further? 🤣
Wow super embarrassing
Just another Tuesday for the UK government.
International law needs changing.
It's being horrifically exploited.
As international law is basically a collection of agreements. That is sorta the plan.
I cannot see anything better ever happening.
