Sad to hear Lee talk as though this issue is a political football. Parties MUST start putting nation first and not party.

[clairehall]

Can't we have a net zero illegals now that would be great

[bigCyril]

Stop these criminals landing in the first place.

[karenfox]

The ECHR should keep their noses out of British decisions.
This is the problem with weak politicians not finalizing brexit.

[robertedwards]

The Uk is the most welcoming country and proud of its overseas aid. We’re full!

[bringriffiths]

Nothing will change, could be stopped overnight

[kateeast]

What about the British people's human rights that are being abused?

[wolfu]

"Incompatible rights to incompatible people". I like what you're saying, David.

[rayalbion]

never voting labour or tory ever again fullstop

[wyattfamily]

DON'T go out to get them. IF they land, arrest them and place them in tent camps surrounded by barbed wire, advise them that they will NEVER be given citizenship unless they return to their place of embarkation and apply lawfully. The United Nations Convention on Human Rights ONLY entitles them to seek safety at the NEAREST SAFE HAVEN, anyone who bypasses countries to seek out the most generous nation is NOT ENTITLED to apply OR SUCCEED in their application.

[sorrysirmygunisoneba]

Dr Starky absolutely put them in their place. Well done 👏

[padiedo]

NOTHING WILL BE DONE THEY KNOW WE KNOW IT EVERYBODY KNOWS IT .AND WHAT ABOUT THE ONES ALREADY HERE NOTHING ONLY EVERYTHING FOR NOTHING SOD THE BRITISH PUBLIC

[johnpaulnash]

Dr Starkey giving clarity once again. But the grown ups in the room should see what's coming in the near future if we do not holt immigration. Britain is not a sandbank in the sea for just anyone in the world to turn up and walk over staking a claim to live here. Otherwise to say we have a sovereign nation, a country with borders, with it's own people, culture and history is meaningless. If you replace the people, what do you have?

[j.t.]

Parliament is not sovereign. The people are - Magna Carta ('first edition') spells this out.

[dnstone]

We're now only talking about illegal immigration, not the 1 million legal migrants who the Tories allowed in last year.

[Elizabeth-jdmn]

Blah blah blah....bored now it's like groundhog day. They'll all just get in somehow anyway, a million visas last year to legalise. Where the hell do we house these people???? Enough.

[krisjones]

Too little Too late, the Tories are toast at the next election, I say that as a former life long Conservaive voter 👍👿

[johnroake]

I dont care where you put these people! As long as they are not here!

[xvdd]

Rwanda is purely a bad trade of one immigrant plus cash for a special needs one without cash whoever came up with that needs the sack.

[victorgrasscourt]

Nothing will happen unless the UK leaves the ECHR. Anderson should know that. Instead he toes the party line. What a shame he was made Deputy Chairman.
