I think the real question is, why do they want to come to the UK and not stay in other European countries.

The vast majority of asylum seekers stay in other countries rather than travel to the UK, so don't think we're viewed as some kind of Disneyland. The proportion that travel here have multiple reasons such as family, language or because we are seen by some as a tolerant country. I wouldn't say we're a softer touch though. Historically we've rejected a large proportion of asylum seeker claims compared with other European countries. More recently about 2/3 ended up being granted which is similar to other European nations.

Following the news that former health secretary Matt Hancock will be entering I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! the response at Westminster and his West Suffolk constituency has been swift.

Mr Hancock, who was a surprise extra name added to the list of contenders, said he would use his appearance to promote his work on dyslexia.

But it will mean being away from parliament and has prompted the Tories suspended the whip.

In Mr Hancock's constituency, Tory councillor Ian Houlder said the former health secretary was "very blinkered" for deciding to do the show.

Asked if it was fair on Mr Hancock's constituents for their MP to appear on I'm A Celebrity, Mr Houlder said: "Well, I don't think he represents them anyway.

"I mean he's got one of the safest seats in the country, or had, and I think it builds a certain amount of arrogance. He's very blinkered.

"He does pop around the big towns from time to time, but he's always stuck in Newmarket with his racing mates."

And Andrew Smith, a Conservative councillor on West Suffolk Council, said he could see why Mr Hancock might want to appear on I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here! "given what's happened to him and his personal life and his career".

He said: "I can see why he might want to do it, given what's happened to him and his personal life and his career."

He continued: "If I was him I wouldn't have done it, to be perfectly truthful, but I'm not him.

"It's not a show I would watch or indeed I would personally do - I don't like eating things that I don't know where they've come from, if you get my drift."

However, Tory councillor Carol Bull said she hoped that appearing on the show would be the "right decision" for the former health secretary.

"He's made the decision, presumably he's thought about it carefully and hopefully it will be, for him, the right decision," said Ms Bull, who represents the Barningham ward.

She continued: "At the end of the day, it depends on how he does and how he's perceived.

"There will be some who think it's really good and others who don't."
 
Lots of mines and Farage on a big old Gatling gun, it’s the only language these people understand. Anything to stop Jonny Foriegner landing on this green and pleasant land, and nicking all our biscuits!

Sadly, during the early Months of Covid, he looked and sounded like he cared.

Agree...I think though that he thought he would get big accolades and mass adulation for the COVID work...but then there was that infidelity occurrence and he went to pot after that...

What we think they are…and what they’re really are… seems mile’s away.
I couldn’t put an ‘X’ to any mp in this country at this time.
Shysters the lot of them.
 
I'm rethinking the political events of late ....and much as we have derided Johnson for his Partygate shenanigans...I would have felt safer with him in position as PM for foreign affairs and security whilst Putin is in this terminal lunatic mode...and affecting much of the troubles we have...
Because Christ on the Cross, the rest of the f√cking Tories are scaring the motherf√cking sh*t out of my head....
Sunak...ye Gods...following the horrors of Truss's Mickey Mouse misdemeanours.... well it's very much Punch and Judyesqueolgy innit...and that with the Ghoulish Gove f√cking about with clockwork behind the carousel....
The Hancock scandal has hit the tracks now...to try and deflect and derail the journo's attention....from this Braverman Sorts treachery of office.

If Matey-boy Starmer with the help of the Jock Pugnatrician ...Blackford ...cannot find a way to force an earlier General Election,..then we are in for a proper fookin Hoot watching the Tories on a hugantic, ginormous and ricketty skimmity-ride this next two years !

You’d feel happier with Johnson in control with all the money he took from Putin and his mates?

No ..because of i'm not aware of that...oh I guess it's possible.but until proof of that is known for sure it's not worth considering.
I wouldn't care to have Boris back because I don't think 'returns to power' work too well ( same with football managers generally).
All i'm saying is ...is that I don't think there is anyone in the Tory Party capable of handling Putin...so I would have ' felt' safer with Johnson staying, for leadership and experience ...in comparison to his two successors !
If your correct about his association with Putin then I'm wrong thinking that - for sure !

A great example of one of the great truisms in this country. It doesn't matter how poor you are at your job, if you are posh enough people will assume you are capable despite mountains of evidence to the contrary.
 
Has anyone noticed how, if you put a small collection of conkers on your window ledge, it stops spiders coming in when the weather turns.

I know this has got nothing to do with Liz Truss, but nor have the majority of posts on this thread.

Does anyone else have some useful non- chemical recommendations for keeping out non-welcome pesky visitors?
 
I think the general British Culture is going to rapidly accelerate at some forthcoming Tipping Point into something quite different ..jettisoning the rampant 'Cad and Bounderism' of the Far Right over the port side and the Abject Lunacy of the Far Left over starboard....it has to happen...and at the same time Celeb Culture to wither and die at the foot of its mast after a damn good flogging ..as we sail further into the 21st Century....Normal Folk leading the way assuming said normal folk can 'identify up' from somewheres, from the bilges of insanity, as a force for Good Ideas !
And I don't mean Woke or PC..or any other of numerous insipid sects currently in vogue..they are cry-baby, misguided and ineffective narcissists in the main....No Batman !....I mean Grippers of Reality...Sages of Survival and Security... that kind of thing...know whut ah mean ?
That'll do for now.

Its the self serving minority who spoil it for the rest. The decline and fall of the conservative party is excused by tarring all mps with the same brush.

There are elected members in all parties who earn the support of their constituents.

I like spiders, so actively invite them in, by leaving dead flies on my shelving
