Re: Conservative Party's chronicles

I would be surprised if this is what people want. The polling suggests otherwise.

This isn't a tightening of immigration rules; this is a huge deportation effort. I don't think it's practical, but leaving that aside, when you get to the tens of thousands of people being deported, many of whom may have been here most of their lives, then I think there will be a backlash.

There are so many people whose entire lives are here, such as those who moved here legally from the EU as far back as the 1970s, who will be subject to deportation from the UK for nothing other than not being British citizens. It doesn't matter if they followed the rules, did everything asked of them, and contributed to society. Few exceptions will allow them to stay. I believe there are 4 million or so EU citizens with Leave to Remain, and because of how long that EU route has been open, many will be retired and therefore subject to deportation.

This is online brain rot from the Tories and Reform. Too much time engaging on X, getting angry at the online left, and radicalising themselves from ordinary people who'll want immigration curtailed and order restored, but have shown little support for deporting the people the Tories are now intentionally going after. The right are just as capable of living in a bubble and getting carried away with recent success to understand there is a limit to what people will accept.
