THE UK asylum system is still not "fit for purpose", according to an independent report published today.
The Independent Asylum Commission inquiry also found that the system for deporting failed asylum seekers was undermining credibility and sapping public confidence.

And how about the system for deporting foreign criminals at the end of their sentence?

And how about the system for pre-screening prospective immigrants in their countries of origin?

And how about that system for turning back undesirables at the point of entry?

Not fit for job? Magnificent understatement!

I think you will find it works perfectly well as anyone can come in and disappear.

Oh, you mean to stop any Tom, Dick or Ali coming in who does not have the right to be here? Sorry my mistake. Yes, you are right it is a shambles!

Do you feel concerned by the staff shortages in the city’s Indian restaurants?
No, I don’t really like Indian food
Yes, I think it will mean a fall in quality
They’re businessmen, they’ll find a way around it.
