The UK’s unworkable immigration plans allow the government to blame others for its failure

[Still Waters]

The illegal migration bill, which purports to end small boat crossings and would effectively bar asylum seeking, has made its way through committee stage. The controversial policy is more likely to be challenged in international courts than to curb small boat crossings. So why is the government pursuing it?

This is arguably not a law intended to end dangerous boat crossings. It’s possibly not even intended to be implemented. It is performative politics, designed to distract from the failures of government and put the Conservatives’ opponents in the firing line ahead of the next election.

Let's put it this way, the governments of countries from where these illegal immigration happens have failed first, I don't see how other nations government can be held accountable or considered failure for conditions of citizens of other nations.
