Cannot wait for the Brexiteers to reignite their Francophobia and show how out of touch they are with most of the good people in the UK.

Brexit was never about illegal immigration it was about legal immigration from the EU that we needed control of – which we now have.
What. An. Idiot.

Why does the media always talk about people “blaming” Brexit?
It’s like they are trying to suggest that there is any question about the undeniable facts of Brexit’s detrimental effects so far.
It was almost a decade ago. We need to stop the culture wars tribal nonsense, admit we made a terrible error, and try to navigate this while also having a pandemic and global tensions rising.
But obviously we can’t make cuts anywhere, they went for the wealthy and the media cried. Now they’re pushing the “millionaire exodus” which has been threatened since the dawn of capitalist media. It was the same apparatus which provoked Brexit in the first place.
“Blaming” Brexit is disingenuous and the blame really is on the ultra-wealthy who pushed all this through by sheer media control. We unfortunately seem to have fallen for the idea that we are still a “British Empire” without realising how much we relied on Europe as an outcome of the war.
Now we aren’t in that Union and this small island is just that. We now see just how bad this is with the necessity we have to bend over for the true superpowers – turns out its not so nice on the receiving end.
The media is to blame, and Brexit was the result.

Yet it’s happening in every western country in the EU, except Poland?

It nothing to do with Brexit.
I think it mainly due to Merkel and her opening the gates. It caused massive migration into Europe

He’s right if U 🤔.
UK had more power in immigration control within the EU than out of it.
If U follow the the money, who would benefit from the largest increase in legal immigration?

Well, yeah. Our border used to be on the French coast. Now it’s on our coast and, boom, Sangat goes seabourne.

he’s 100% right nowhere else do illegal immigrants get free hotel, food, days out, driving lessons, healthcare, phones, weekly cash and then benefits for their families.

There’s zero excuse for France letting those people go into the channel on shitty little boats risking their lives. Nothing to do with Brexit, just France would rather we deal with them even if we were still in the EU.

I blame France for not doing what they were paid to do personally.

Macron blames Brexit for his dog’s flatus smelling of French food.

Why would Brexit affect immigration, if our economy is going down hill because of it then surely this would make the UK less attractive.
Or is the rise because France reacted spitefully and wanted to punish the UK over Brexit and are deliberately working against the UK interests.
