A major policy announcement of this type should be fully clarified at the time of broadcast - at least in a publication that indicates the law changes that will enable all this, including the deportation or resettlement of ineligible asylum seekers of military ag.

I don't think so, Seph. The final details will be revealed closer to the election. We don't know the details of any policies to be introduced by the other parties yet, so we'll have to be patient. A lot can happen in four years.

Envy over what? Incidentally, I think Farage was talking about not allowing immigrants to draw pensions unless they'd been paying into the scheme. But the devil will be in the detail.

Actually, while studies don't show a causal link, they have not been conclusive, and I think that's what Trump is alluding to, but he's jumping the gun, I think. He should wait for better evidence before he trots out something like this.
Farage is just saying he doesn't know. That's honest. He's not jumping on any bandwagon and just parroting what he's told to say, which is what we normally expect from leading politicians..
