Tories are stunned to discover that if you cut funds to public services they tend to do less well. Brexiters are stunned to find out that borders have two sides, and that if you refuse to co-operate with your neighbours borders become more difficult to manage, not less difficult.

All small-boat migrants will be in the UK for at least a year while waiting for asylum claims to be processed, officials say.

The delays signal a 'collapse' of decision-making and mean people arriving on small boats end up staying in taxpayer-funded hotels 'for years', MPs claimed last night.

It comes as last month the backlog of asylum claims reached a new record high of 175,457.
