Well only if you stop reading after the first line.
It is fairly obvious to me (and it appears many others on here) but maybe it should have been reworded to;
'Vote Green, and you absolutely WILL get illegals’
Just to avoid any confusion, it is obviously saying that ‘by all means vote Green if you want, but Reform will be the next government and will make sure that all the camps*, sorry detention centres, will only be placed in Green-voting areas.’
Now maybe Green-party voters will have the courage of their convictions, they support immigration and so certainly won’t mind having these camps, sorry again, detention centres, in their locale. In reality, I suspect a degree of NIMBYism will come into play here.
It could well be a fairly effective scare tactic, but they can backfire, offering threats rather than positives and improvements doesn’t always work.
Actually, if the inmates aren’t allowed to leave, then does it matter where they are? Will Reform only have prisons in Liberal voting areas?
The more I think about it the less sure I am that this was well thought through.
