I suppose it's inevitable we have to cycle through the "Brexit was mishandled" denialist bullshit
Before the UK's polity settle on the obvious
"No Brexit always meant this & it nonsense on stilts - shit in any timeline"
It seems ppl at large are already there - 5 years ahead of HMG et al

This is genocidal logic, but it's also just deeply embarrassing magical thinking. The "facts & logic" crowd insists I can't be a woman because they've convinced themselves that would require some woo woo notion of "gender identity", but they find this fucking volksgeist nonsense totally plausible?

All the Right Wing apologists are cheering the fall in UK immigration announced today while missing what could be a huge problem - 99% of emigrants are under the age of 35. That’s a big brain drain.

This is who we're deporting while we're importing sex traffickers like the Tate brothers and white supremacists who are nostalgic for Apartheid.
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

Among other travesties in this statement, National Guard soldiers are not "law enforcement"
REPORTER: There are people upset with the president, believing the National Guard members shouldn't have been there
PIRRO: I don't even wanna talk about whether they should've been there. We ought to kiss the ground and thank God that the president said it's time to bring in more law enforcement

i half joked on an internet forum 15 odd years ago that one way to lower immigration was to make the country so shit no one would come and ppl already here would leave
Remember -
Net migration rises: The government has lost control of the borders
Net migration fails: The government has trashed the country so badly that no one wants to come here

The "Salazar Gambit"
At this point, I wonder if he isn't lying when he says he has "my highest Poll Numbers, ever" since it's entirely possible that's what his aides are telling him. It's quite likely that there's an entire Potemkin village built around Trump right now.
