Now, I don't think they'll do it either because it's unpopular and unworkable.
But that is what the proposal is. They like to signal one thing to one group, i.e telling the more radical right they want to do what the bill as introduced says, whilst then pretending it's liberal scaremongering when challenged on it.
It's not a healthy place to be when politicians are proposing wildly radical ideas, and we simply think they won't actually do it.

It’s the North African, and Middle Eastern backward cohort of Islamic “doctors and engineers” we would like removed.
