You can’t put a minimum income threshold for refugees if you have banned asylum seeking people from working. You can’t expect kids fleeing a warzone to have school level English. And none of this will “stop the boats.” You need safe routes. Honestly, they can’t find anyway to defend this.

They know it wouldn't solve "small boats" or anyway don't care much whether it would or not; they know it'd cause a problem for Northern Ireland, and don't really care. But they'll claim any fake upside and deny every real downside, because what they really do care about is Brexit 2.0.

The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.
