Law and order for other people. Young or old, rich or poor, black or white.

But particularly the young, poor, and black.

I am yet again bewildered as to her stupidity - and that of Sunak - that they don’t see the next step down this horrific road they desperately want to drag us down is that under a different but ideologically similar regime that’s only a smidge further on, they themselves would find they’d suddenly been redefined as ‘undesirable’ and eligible for some sort of one-way trip to somewhere awful.

The Farages and Yaxley-Lennons don’t just want to stop immigration and asylum. They want everyone already here, born here, had generations of family here, gone as well. Because they don’t care where you’re from, what your policies are and how aligned with them they may be, or even how cruel you are. Their sole in/out criteria is ‘are you white?’. And Braverman can be as mean-spirited and heartless and callous as she wants - she’s never passing that test, so will never be more than a useful idiot.

We know what these people are like. They’ll be saying it’s a great policy, but also joking in their WhatsApp and FB groups that she can go too, and take Rishi with her.

Only they’re not really joking, and never are.

Spot on.

They may not say it, it may not be their policy, but there's no doubt that the next step will be repatriation. It won't be compulsory, it won't need to be. Just a bit more encouragement in the right ears, a bit more inflammatory language, perhaps floating the idea of making it easier to return 'home'. Bricks will be going through front windows again and families will be leaving.

Well she’s put me to shame on this prophecy

It finally dawns on me, (thick as fucking mince but the penny does drop eventually).

"International law" is merely "stinking forriners telling us what to do." That will always go down well with the 24%.

And UK law is merely "Lefty lawyers, interfering with our campaigning"

The entire Brexit/modern right wing thing is basically an overgrown manchild screaming "Stop telling me what to doooooooooooooooo!!!"

Who needs laws?

Tories already have those votes so this boat stuff is hardly going to widen the tent.

Braverman claiming the email with her name on it wasn’t really from her.

And is too thick to understand that civil servants saying "no" isn't being woke lefty snowflakes blocking her marvellous policies, but actually just civil servants doing their job - to ensure any policy they're instructed to follow is actually legal.

Some big boys did it and ran away [/chinnyreckon]

The hamster-faced fascist landing herself in hot water over emails and the ministerial code. Again.

And all during a day of the BBC leading with Lineker being on the naughty step. That particular corner of the world is worryingly broken.

The obvious giveaway here is, it’s written in exactly the way she would write it - full of loathing and badly composed.

This, but also then screaming “DO WHAT I TELL YOU TO DO!!’

A thought: this policy is clearly horse shit, but if it goes ahead even for a bit it will mean thousands of extra detention places are needed ASAP.

This will put huge pressure on the areas where people are moved to.

Would it therefore be out of the realms of possibility to suspect the areas chosen will be Labour-voting, AND that the raised tensions - when they inevitably result in violence, egged on by Braverman’s usual fascist-adjacent rhetoric - will be used to justify further laws and restrictions that claim to be related to the situation but are in fact just designed to further limit options for dissent, protest and scrutiny?

Because right now I can’t see any purpose to this other than as an ultra-short term distraction destined to backfire.

I don't think it's a plot to bring in more fascist legislation.

One of the places they're considering is the recently closed RAF Scampton, in a very Tory part of Lincolnshire.

I think they're just flailing around trying to find some sort of policy which will appeal to the masses, and they haven't thought it all the way through. Which is typical of these intellectual lightweights.

Tough talk, perfect for armchair warriors.

If they actually did dispose of every migrant, and things were still shit, people might realise that migrants aren't the problem.

Thus the conceit. That hungry little ball of ugliness lurking in each of us, but some of us are more prone to let it take the wheel than others. 'I'm OK Jack, you're OK Jack, they can get fucked, Jack'.
