The UK Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, has stated that looks for ways to “stop the invasion” of immigrants crossing the English Channel in small boats to Great Britain.
“Let’s stop pretending they are all refugees in distress,” Braverman has indicated in an appearance in the House of Commons after a reception center in Dover (southeast England) was attacked with firebombs by a 66-year-old man who immediately took his own life.
The Labor opposition warned that this center is overcrowded in “inhumane” conditions about 4,000 immigrants, despite being designed to accommodate 1,600 people, and various outbreaks of disease have been detected there.
The Home Secretary explained that this year they have reached British shores close to 40,000 immigrants, more than double that in the same period last year, and has highlighted the increase in people of Albanian nationality trying to reach the United Kingdom from the French coast.
“People who arrive here illegally from safe countries are not welcome and should not aspire to stay,” Braverman said, calling “unacceptable” the economic cost of hosting thousands of immigrants in hotels while their cases are processed, as has been done so far before lack of places in migratory centers.
“This government is committed to making illegal entry into the UK unworkable. Trying to do so is unnecessary, deadly dangerous, unfair to law-abiding immigrants and unfair to the majority of law-abiding patriotic Britons,” he said.
Faced with criticism from the Labor opposition, Braverman has argued that “the British deserve to know who is serious about stopping the invasion of our coasts and who does not”.
The British Executive planned to begin this year to deport asylum seekers who arrive in its territory to Rwanda so that the African country can process their requests and offer them shelter if you consider it appropriate.
The judges, however, paralyzed those plans, whose legality is being analyzed by the High Court in London. “We must be clear with citizens. The system is broken. Illegal immigration is out of control,” assured the Minister of the Interior, who stressed that she is working to speed up the expulsion processes. “I speak for the majority of decent, law-abiding patriotic Britons, from all walks of life, who demand security.”
Some xenophobic comments for which the Minister of the Interior is once again in the spotlight, who since her appointment has been involved in various controversies.
