It'll get a lot better once we aren't in the EU ... oh wait, we left at the end of January.
Wasn't Brexit going to fix this???

If it were not for Nigel, the stealth invasion would be able to continue indefinitely.

The left-wing media would rather use any distraction methods possible than report the truth.

I see we are welcoming up to 3 million Hong Kong residents to the UK ..
Three million Hong Kong residents 'eligible' for UK citizenship

They will fly in though, so Farage won't have to skulk around small harbours he can stay at Heathrow.

But, I thought this country was FULL? Where will we put them all? Won't they take all 'our' jobs?

If Phoney Blair had not opened the UK borders willy-nilly, there would be plenty of room for the deserving.

We took in those escaping Nazi Germany and they integrated very well.

We took in the parents of Priti Patel and she has integrated very well.

Those suffering in Hong Kong will integrate very well and it will be a smack in the face for the CCP.

Ah, so those from war torn countries with starving children won't integrate

Provided they are legal ones as those from Hong Kong will be, but we must stop illegal immigration.
So you're okay with refugees from Syria living in the UK, after all. Good.
I was afraid that you would reject people based on where they come from or what religion they have, but it seems like you're one of the good guys, after all.

@Notanumber

Why do you think people fleeing a civil war do not qualify for refugee status, but the citizens of Hong Kong, who officially suffer no persecution, do? Is it because the latter involves the PRC?

If so, then you are mistaken. The Geneva Convention makes no distinction between the citizens of China vs. the citizen of any other country when it comes to granting refugee status.

(And of course, we know how the fate of Hong Kong refugees would play out. They would become trapped in the same bureaucratic nightmare as any other person fleeing persecution. Nobody would care about them past their initial 15 minutes of fame in international news, as at that point, they would cease to be of political value to the UK government.)
