You're a high ranking government official and you shouldn't make things up.
Your 70% number is just a fabrication.
And it's TOTALLY not true that "every single" person you detained is here illegally. For instance, many were allowed in so they could apply for asylum.

The UK is losing up to £250m a day in lost tax revenue due to the economic impact of Brexit, House of Commons Library analysis for the Lib Dems suggests.
Brexit has blown a "black hole of [up to] £90 billion a year in the public finances" the party says. Even under lower estimates the hit is ~£65bn

The administration seems to forget that in 1994, the U.S. and NATO made a commitment to protect Ukraine from Russia on the condition that Ukraine give up all its nukes, which they did. And now Ukraine is being thrown under the bus and labeled ungrateful when THEY met their end of the bargain.
