Priti Patel issues orders to turn them boats around

Re: Priti Patel issues orders to turn them boats around

He's not right. He never is. Thats a hypothetical scenario designed to enrage the knee-jerkers on twitter.

He only ever looks at things from a far-left angle too. So he ignores counter arguments and provides no context.

If you only give one side of a story, it's not accurate.

Bloke is worth ignoring.

This was his previous tweet. What is incorrect about this?

NOT AGAINST INTERNATIONAL LAW:
Crossing the Channel to claim asylum

AGAINST INTERNATIONAL LAW:
Pushing refugee boats back at sea

JamesWales is not right. He never is. Thats a hypothetical scenario designed to enrage the knee-jerkers on twitter.

He only ever looks at things from a far-right angle too. So he ignores counter arguments and provides no context.

If you only give one side of a story, it's not accurate.

Bloke is worth ignoring.

Do you have an example?

Yes, everything on there is sectarian political BS.

Re: Priti Patel issues orders to turn them boats around

What he means is David Schneider posts things that make him feel uncomfortable because it holds a mirror up to how much of a selfish **** James is.

Jesus, you are a long way down the rabbit hole.

If you believe the likes of the Mail, Express and Nobhead Farage the UK is the only country that asylum seekers are interested in, but if you take a look at the actual figures loads go to other European countries. These UN figures are from 2019 but I'm sure haven't changed greatly:
UK - 133,094
Germany - 1,146,685
France - 407,923
Italy - 207,619
Sweden - 253,794
Switzerland - 110,168
Austria - 135,955

Yes, in the last day or so:

This is a lie

This is misleading

https://twitter.com/davidschneider/status/1435672843623309315

This is presenting a hypothetical story as reality for his followers

The blokes a political sectarian. If you are interested in the truth, I wouldnt follow him. Or follow someone on the opposite side of the spectrum for balance.

If you think he is far left you soppy twat. I can see him now in a Beret organising a milita to over throw the government.

The person who used the phrase virtue signal is now saying others are far down a rabbit hole without irony!

David Schneider is clearly not "far left"
if he appears far left to you, I'd suggest that says more about you than him.

This isn't about asylum seekers per se, it is about boats crossing the channel via criminal gangs.

The two should not be conflated.

I wholly support the UK airlifts from Afghanistan last week. But I generally don't think facilitating human trafficking from Calais is good.

Okay, 'hard left' would be a better angle. He isnt centre-left
