@JackVinson911 I principle, I know you are right. In theory, I hope you are right. With how hard Trump is going against this I’m assuming you’re wrong and he really is trying to bury it but every bone in my body is praying for some 4D chess and we’ll see some justice soon

By his own admission @BenWallace70 is responsible for the coverup of the leak and subsequent importation of tens of thousands of Afghans. This man and anybody else complicit should be arrested for treason immediately.
I think Reform are the only vehicle for actual change left unfortunately, and I agree with you that they seem to be compromised. If Reform don’t pull their heads out their ass soon then the final outlet for people will be sectarian violence and that just isn’t good for our communities.
HSBC have left the net zero alliance - pleased to say we just left them and took our £600m Green economy turnover elsewhere. All companies that believe in net zero, aka the green economy - should ditch HSBC.

We must not accept these migrants from Afghanistan in such vast and unsustainable numbers.
Resettle them in a safe, third party country closer to Afghanistan- geographically, socially and culturally.
The interesting thing I keep reading is that ‘oh well these Afghans helped our troops so they’re the good guys! Anyone with a semblance of knowledge on how tribal the Middle East is knows how even radical Islamist’s will side with the West to fight other, stronger, radical Islamists only to go back to being radical Islamists once the stronger radical Islamists are defeated. It’s not rocket science. Our troops trained these men in how to conduct warfare not how to queue in Tesco or order a pint in the local. To say that importing them is fine is ludicrous
Lots of debate about the cover up, but almost none on the consequence - shipping in Afghans on an industrial scale is utter madness.
It’s a backward country. Afghanistan is not a place that shares our principles or basic values. It’s just not. To welcome thousands and thousands of these individuals to our country is not the way, and it’s a process that should be reversed.
We need to urgently establish an agreement with a safe third party country where we can relocate these people to. One that is geographically, culturally and socially closer to Afghanistan. That country is not Britain.
Those in genuine need, following intense and proper vetting, should be safe from the Taliban following our catastrophic cock up, but that does not have to be in Britain.
I’ve been informed that the checks taking place are woefully inadequate - the system is being vastly abused. Our generosity is being exploited, again.
Afghanistan is rife with violence against women, religious extremism, forced marriage and more.
Corruption, tribalism, oppression, sexual assault? Do we want to import even more of that? In the many, many thousands? No, is the answer. Definitely NOT.
Ask yourself. Is an establishment that was incompetent enough to leak the data, competent enough to properly vet the 100,000? Absolutely not. How many rapists are in that number? Criminals? Terrorists? Islamic extremists? We do NOT know.
Just say no. Sorry, but they are not welcome in Britain.
We can’t take the risk, and we shouldn’t take the risk.
@PrittyKat@Nigel_Farage The article says yes, but this can only be done by leaving the ECHR which isn’t Reform policy (yet). I suspect Reform have not gone full throttle to avoid the ire of the mainstream parties but with this Afghan story we’ll see them get a lot more radical (I hope)
