It seems that Britain’s borders are fraying at the seams. Far from successfully policing the country’s borders the British state instead appears complicit in the large-scale illegal entry of the country. While the Home Secretary pledges to conduct an urgent investigation into the “uncontrolled landing” in Folkestone, and the Government remains committed to its policy to “smash the gangs” and stop the small boats, its revealed preference suggests it is more interested in the direct opposite. Large numbers of police officers have been deployed across multiple counties on the south coast to ensure illegal immigrants are brought ashore and into Home Office reception centresas quickly as possible. Protesters have started tracking these movements, and the Government has pledged to use the full force of the law against those who disrupt them. Evidently state capacity does exist, even in such constrained times, to encourage illegal entry into the country. While those who engage in violent disorder should expect to be prosecuted, this whole affair is creating a crisis of the rule of law. People who have broken multiple laws by breaking into the country and looked after by the state, at taxpayers’ expense, and activists who try to stop this from happening are punished. With the creation of a new government unit to counter supposed “disinformation” and “false narratives” around the state of Britain today, it seems like the Government is tooling up for a wholesale push against dissenting opinion and dissenting media around the illegal immigration crisis.
The Government seems to think the best way forward is to disperse illegal immigrants around the country, as wealthier areas need to “do their bit” and share the burden of accommodating men from around the world who have broken into the country in their neighbourhoods. Villages like Piddington are in open revolt, and more may follow. If Andy Burnham wants to stop this crisis he would close the asylum system and automatically detain every illegal entrant to the country before deporting them to their country of origin or a third country, like Rwanda. Nothing else will do. Who knows, it may give him the polling boost he needs to call that much-rumoured early election.
