The country is being run by a cabal of self-serving individuals more than willing to break international and their own laws and try to divert attention onto relatively trivial issues because they are popular and pander to prejudice.

I can see why you haver taken up the Tory banner and feel more comfortable defending their policies rather than your dalliances with Respect and the Liberal Democrats though!
You have a right to care about the issues you care about, and other people have a right to care about issues they care about.

I don't think it is the biggest issue in the country, but I also think it's possible to walk and chew gum at the same time, and personally illegal immigration, abuse of asylum, people dying on dinghies and the enrichment of criminal gangs in the repulsive people traficking industry is something that we should try and solve, even if it upsets a few peoples sensitivities along the way.

You've also failed to come up with any solutions and just wheeled out a few predictable tropes, which doesn't move us forward at all.
