Every single sentence in your post is untrue.
Labour’s 2002 ‘deal’ had very little long-term impact on migrants trying to sneak into the UK by lorry/container/vehicles. It simply moved from Sangette to other routes.
Between 2014-2019 55,000 came in that way — an underestimate since many came in undetected and disappeared into society. Unlike boat people, nearly all of whom are counted.
So it’s an obvious nonsense to say people weren’t being sent back because nobody was arriving. Tens of thousands were arriving.
They switched to small boats when major advances in technology, perimeter defence of lorry/container parks and detection made lorries etc too risky to take.
That’s why, from 2018 onwards, the small boat numbers grew fast.
Nothing to do with EU, Brexit, Dublin rules, fairy dust etc. Why do you peddle such falsehoods?
Oh dear, how sad, never mind. 🙂🇬🇧
The Czech Prime Minister clearly forgot that he shouldn’t be saying the quiet bit out loud. #Brexit #EU

Well? @andyburnham
Burnham has such contempt for the British public that he attempted to mislead us by implying that Russian interference had actually affected the #Brexit referendum in an ill judged attempt to smear the result in the hope of boosting the rejoin campaign. He’s out of his depth.
Oh dear. Andy Burnham's attempt to smear Brexit as the product of a sinister Russian disinformation campaign has already been exposed as nothing more than… disinformation.
During a car-crash set of interviews this morning, Foreign Office minister Stephen Doughty admitted that no Kremlin attempt to interfere with Brexit had succeeded. Not that Doughty didn't try his damnedest to avoid stating the obvious.

Plenty of foreign interference that you could highlight in the right hand column @andyburnham #Brexit
Burnham clutching at straws trying to discredit the 2016 referendum result. Is he really trying to say that 17.4 million people were persuaded to vote Leave because of supposed Russian interference. If so, he clearly doesn’t know the British people #Brexit
Andy Burnham becomes first PM to confirm Russian interference in Brexit referendum
@campbellclaret and @RoryStewartUK's exclusive interview with @andyburnham on tomorrow's episode of Leading is out in full at midnight.
A good example of why the right should opt for a new path in the future. If you’re not a British national and can’t support yourself, don’t expect the British taxpayer to step in. The Conservatives clearly think otherwise.
Perhaps the government’s new ministry for truth should start with itself and stop peddling lies about #Brexit
Exclusive: The proof the Government has been lying to us about Brexit.
In real terms the economy has grown, exports have risen – all according to official figures.

Pls re-post!
If this is true and I’m not doubting you June, why is the British government allowing France to get away with what they’re doing @ShabanaMahmood @Nigel_Farage @ZiaYusufUK #IllegalImmigrants #StopTheBoats
Talking to a French coastguard contact (Gus) today - his English not perfect but the point was clear:
So I looked it up he's right!
♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️
Under UN Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) and UNCLOS, the duty of a coastal state is to STOP overcrowded, unseaworthy vessels leaving its ports.
👇👇👇👇👇👇
If such a vessel is at sea and a French vessel is the first to it, the duty is to take it back to the nearest safe port - which is France.
It is NOT the duty of the UK to then take over the chaperoning of an unsuitable vessel across the Channel.
Stop them at the point of departure. Return them to France if intercepted by French assets. That's what maritime safety law actually says.
It's all in The UN document
👇👇👇👇
SOLAS Article 98 /Chapter V

When it comes to immigration, Labour has gone back on everything it said it would do.
This week's Brazier. With @ColinBrazierTV.
Only on @OutpostStudios.
Andrew Neil and Liam Halligan paint a very gloomy picture of the UK economy and it appears the #Labour government are not doing us any favours either. In Liam’s words they are guilty of ‘fiscal mismanagement’. #LabourOut
Tells you why @UKLabour aren’t keen on cutting the welfare bill. #LabourOut
The perpetrators are no doubt amongst those being imported into our country on a daily basis. Enough is enough. This has to stop now before the British people take it upon themselves to sort it out! @ShabanaMahmood @andyburnham #IllegalImmigration #StopTheBoats
It’s just a matter of time before those not politically engaged will realise that everything Burnham says is 🐂 💩 and just echoed by the MSM without question. #LabourOut

Burnham has ensured that another big argument about the EU is coming soon.
Those who believe in national independence need to gear up for it, and treat it as a first order fight.

“The fasten seat belts sign is on”.
This is a message I received early this morning from one of the UK’s most experienced, savvy and respected financial traders. Someone I have come to know and trust for the last 25 years.
10-year bond yields are now almost 4.5pc - up some 50 basis points over the last month.
30-year yields this morning went above 6pc - a 28-year high.
Yet the UK’s political and media class continues to focus on party posturing and folksy rhetoric, ignoring the slow-motion disaster that has been happening on the UK’s sovereign bond markets for at least the last 18 months - a disaster that will inevitably, unless we drastically change course, turn into a fully blown market meltdown.
At that point, the UK government won’t be able to borrow enough money to finance our already spiralling debt interest bill.
Britain’s financial management will be taken over by overseas technocrats - that will be the condition of additional borrowing, to maintain the basic functions of the state, as happened in Greece and Italy back in the early 2010s and here in Britain 50 years ago this year (when we were forced in 1976 to apply to the IMF for a bailout).
The austerity then imposed on Britain would make 2010-2019 feel like a picnic - far, far worse than it would be if we took serious action now to control our public finances.
Lower-income households would suffer most - and there would be serious damage done to the UK’s already rapidly-fraying social fabric ….
I have been warning about these looking fiscal dangers publicly, in my newspaper columns and elsewhere, since at least early 2024.
Doing so hasn’t been easy or fun. I have been dismissed and derided by numerous economists, “economists”, officials and policymakers - as well as lots of journalists.
I absolutely don’t want a disastrous 1976-style outcome - which is why I’ve taken the blows and issued the warnings.
The state is too big. Public spending is out of control. Our fiscal rules are a convenient nonsense - designed to kick the can of financial reality into the future. We need to get real … and take bold action to tame the growth of spending, push back a now totally over-bearing state and snap the British economy out of today’s high-tax-high-borrowing-low-growth doom loop - the result of myopic, counter-productive policy-making by successive governments for the last decade and more …
Other prominent economists who agree with me - ie who are financially-literate, can read a yield curve, have a passing interest in economic history and who understand the dangers of some 80pc of UK government borrowing going on debt interest as it currently is - need to chuck “career risk” in the bin, and start saying publicly what so many of them have, for quite a while now, only had the bottle to say to me in private …
Remember: “The fasten seat belts sign is on”
Very sinister and dangerous. #Blacklist
The Government is keeping a blacklist of people who question its policies, with social media posts criticising the Government being monitored and investigated by officials. dailysceptic.org/2026/09/30/…
