I’m in the UK. There is strong anti-ILLEGAL-immigrant sentiment, because hundreds of thousands of undocumented men originating in Africa and the Middle East have illegally crossed the English Channel from France and then made asylum claims, meaning the UK taxpayer is forced (by treaty) to house them and feed them. These are quite evidently opportunists. A large proportion are young fighting-age men, and most are fleeing countries where there is no current conflict.

As a taxpayer in a cost of living crisis I resent seeing hotels full of these chancers.

And I don’t think women and girls are safe with them around, given the staggering sexual crime statistics

Call me “anti-immigrant” if you like. I don’t care. I’m voting for fairness and safety in the next election.
