There's no need to descend to that sort of personal abuse... ;)

Quote:

In order to deport all illegal migrants in Britain, a Reform government will build detention capacity for at least 24,000 illegal migrants at a time.

They will not be able to leave the detention centres, and be held for a short period while they await deportation.

We understand people feel strongly about living near detention sites. So we make this guarantee:

Based on results from local elections and the next general election, no detention centre will be placed in any constituency with a Reform MP, or in any council area controlled by Reform.

Of the remaining areas, given the Green Party advocate for open borders, we will prioritise Green-held constituencies and Green-run councils to put these sites.

That still seems nonsensical to me, how do they expect to get into government if they tell people to vote Green.

Shockingly they want their cake and eat it, they're telling people that the greens will let anyone in but reform will save the day by removing the ones already here and that their voters won't have to put up with having detention centres in their constituencies, it'll work too I'll bet

It's an interesting suggestion by Reform but unless they have done their homework by knowing their locational options, there are too many spinning plates to allow that to be a reliable policy. It's uncaveated and thus somewhat foolish.

They're trying to prevent people from voting Green by saying that, if Green win, that this will result in more illegal immigrants. If Reform win then they will create detention centres and deliberately put them in areas where Green did win.

This lack of professionalism shows how worried Refirm are, now that their support is waning & the Green vote is rising. It's the sort of immature/spiteful language/policy that you'd expect from Trump.

Seriously, is that how you read it? Who wants illegals in their back yard?

Not according to the latest poll.

I agree with Richard, to an extent.

The detention centre announcement does lack professionalism.

Has peak Reform occurred?

I believe it to be a tottering lead and May 7th will be a big marker.
