The high Minister’s horror tales about an inflow of illegal migrants if we depart Europe are just scare tactics – Margaret Thatcher wouldn’t put up with this farce

David Cameron warns that, should we leave the european, camps of unlawful migrants will spring up at Dover for the reason that French will now not let UK officials make immigration checks at Calais.

surely our top Minister should be dimly conscious that it used to be the women and men of these isles who saw off the Luftwaffe? Does he in point of fact consider that, in simply 70 years, we’ve change into such world-class wusses that we’re unable to maintain out 7,000 Moroccans with a dog on a rope?

If he does consider that, let me with politeness counsel that he’s within the fallacious job. Defeatism isn’t a excellent search for a prime Minister.

imagine the perspective of Australia, to take only one example of a country that is aware of how to give protection to its borders. flip up in ounceswithout the best visa and you will be returned to the purpose of departure, at the service’s price, sooner than you could say “Strewth, mate”.

“in line with european legislation chiefs, our right to not get murdered by way of Islamist lunatics is trumped with the aid of any international criminal with a baby born within the european”

conscious that the public is deeply underwhelmed with the aid of the high Minister’s eu renegotiation – “he asked for nothing and he bought nothing” was once one damning verdict – in a Corporal Jones-model panic he has launched “challenge fear”: scare the British people into staying within the ecu by way of making us feel we can be dangerously isolated in an unsafe world.

Isn’t the opposite proper? best this week we saw how the united kingdom is powerless to kick out the Moroccan daughter-in-regulation of Abu Hamza, who used to be jailed in 2012 for trying to smuggle a Sim card to that terrorist in Belmarsh jail. the eu courtroom of Justice says that, “in principle”, the lady’s deportation would deprive her son, a British citizen, of the “proper to a family life”.

Mr Hamza was once hellbent on depriving British citizens of a household existence. by using blowing them up. yet, in line with european regulation chiefs, our right to not get murdered by way of Islamist lunatics is trumped by any international felony with a toddler born within the eu. How safe does that make you’re feeling?

it seems that there are “exceptional circumstances” during which the home Secretary might deport a foreign criminal with a baby who’s an european citizen, and the european court docket could have just a little suppose and a double espresso and let nice Britain know when that could be. Merci beaucoup!

can you imagine Margaret Thatcher’s reaction to this mortifying farce which places the protection of the British people beneath the rights of a overseas felony? i will. So, subsequent time, the PM tries to scare us with certainly one of his Brexit horror tales, I suggest that we reply with the words of the woman herself. “No. No. No.”
