It's ok

'The Coop' has got this

The Home Office confirmed Labour's new Border Security Command "is gearing up" after the number of migrants crossing the English Channel in small boats topped 19,000 this year so far.

Yvette Cooper will today reveal plans to recruit 100 new specialist intelligence officers for the National Crime Agency and increase immigration detention spaces in a bid to enable more returns.

According to the Home Office, Labour believes it can achieve "the highest rate of removals of those with no right to be here, including failed asylum seekers" since 2018.

Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper said: "We are taking strong and clear steps to boost our border security and ensure the rules are respected and enforced.

"Our new Border Security Command is already gearing up, with new staff being urgently recruited and additional staff already stationed across Europe. They will work with European enforcement agencies to find every route in to smashing the criminal smuggling gangs organising dangerous boat crossings which undermine our border security and put lives at risk.

Ms Cooper added: "And by increasing enforcement capabilities and returns, we will establish a system that is better controlled and managed, in place of the chaos that has blighted the system for far too long."

So far that's just talk. Lets see it happen and then they can brag about it. And I wonder what the ECHR have to say on this as all they have to do is contest the deportations because they have a cat in England and within two weeks they'll have a paid for council flat in Slough.

I'm glad you all came out to refute my claims, safety in numbers and all that.
And the special award goes to Hallam for his 25th quote of me.

You dropped yourself in it this time. Hoisted by your own petard, (whatever one of those is?)
And I don't quote you anymore than anyone else does (er...apart from here).

Rees Mogg was on tv last night doing his tedious show that is probably watched by less people than voted for him in the last GE

He was speaking from his cosy armchair in his living room at home

He gave a rousing speech about how the working from home culture is so dreadful

From his living room

At home

With a straight face

I loved that a German navy warship came up the Thames yesterday with all the crew on deck, playing the theme music for Darth Vader.
That is good German humour.

It gives me a warm glow inside (all I've got now, it seems) to know that my Winter Fuel allowance will go to a good cause paying the extra money those train drivers seem so desperate for.

Thanks Barmy Starmy

Lazz and Co are noticeable by their silence to my post, but I expect it has hit a nerve and they won't admit that their great leader Barmy Starmy has stuck his foot in his gob.

Gets comfy chair, popcorn, box of chocs and awaits red faces, as they go on a fulminating and spluttering apoplectic rage

(Oh, and blame it on 14 years of misrule - I wonder how long they will trot that one out to cover the shortcomings of the present load of pink knobs)

You made more sense when you were typing in German

Jawohl! And I'm very surprised I wasn't accused of being racist

Businessman Mike Lynch's body found in that sunken yacht

He just won a huge million dollar court case in America very recently with a co-defendant - which they both expected to lose

Lynch and his co-defendant are now both dead

Both killed in tragic accidents within a short time....

Hmmmmmm....

I made my opinion clear on the Winter Fuel Payment on a post ages ago.
You need to keep up Herc.
People will think that you're losing it.

Done it again. Edited a post and deleted it by mistake.

Jermaine Jenas sacked by the BBC. It comes after he branded referee Robert Jones a "complete s***house"
