And my point is you are in a world of make-believe. What you want to be able to do is impossible, you are in unicorn land much like the Brexit charlatans and the Irish border in the famous venn diagram. You have to propose a real world solution, you do not have one.

I know that's your point, but this is a basic economics question. If you incentivize people to get on those boats, they will get on the boats. Period end of story. Pause new asylum applications until the boats stop. That isn't make believe, it's pragmatism.

Except it has been done and failed catastrophically. Turns out if we pause new applications the boats don't stop. We end up with a massive and growing bill for housing unprocessed applicants. That is the ridiculous mess Sunak's Tories got us into and Labour has started to dig us out of.
