We can’t build a wall! We can’t deport them all! They won’t self-deport!
Well, Israel has shown that a wall works very well indeed (not 100%, but very well when compared to prior to the wall. And there is a country that is taking on the other two as they have decided they have no choice, given how they have boxed themselves in.
As we have been watching Great Britain, the Labour Party (which would be called outright Socialists here, and I don’t mean it well) self-decided that it hated its own base and fellow countrymen. So once gaining power, they basically opened their borders (re: no borders) and decided multiculturalism was far better than their own culture.
Sidenote: that’s what Socialists are and do – they are self-loathing of their own country and its traditions. Remind you of a certain political Party? Or is that two of ’em?
Immigration rose to what is now considered to be, EVEN BY THE LABOUR Party, to be unsustainable and multiculturalism did not enhance but has split the country (Labour goofed – they thought they could inculcate the newly arrived to their way of thinking – and failed. Now they have a large population that holds British traditions to be antithetical to their beliefs and the Brits are almost as much on guard against terrorism as Israel is.
So now they want to change a couple of things – and our “legalize illegal immigrants” snobs should learn from them. First from BBC (via Hot Air, reformatted with my emphasis):
Businesses that employ illegal workers will be hit with “the full force of government machinery”, immigration minister James Brokenshire has warned. He said “rogue employers” who give work to illegal migrants were denying UK citizens jobs, driving down wages and gaining an “unfair advantage”.
Gee, a lot of us here have been saying the same thing – like where Obamacare can screw over employers if they don’t toe the exact law – unless they hire illegals. Who are willing to work for less – and causing more of the Left’s hated “thing” of the cycle – income inequality. But just like Britain, our government has done the same thing to its own citizens. Especially with the word tonite that immigration now has 42 million foreigners here in the US – mostly due to our own “open border” policy (not de jure but de facto) – the highest percentage ever. But it looks like Britain is going to do something that our own government won’t – follow the Rule of Law:
The Times says immigration officers are to carry out raids on cleaning firms, building sites and care homes. But Labour’s Yvette Cooper said the Home Office should “still do more”. BBC political correspondent Robin Brant said ministers were trying to “enhance” practical measures to combat illegal workers, rather than bring in new measures.
And add this:
U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron is due to announce Thursday plans for a fresh crackdown on illegal immigrants, including new legislation to allow police to seize the wages of foreigners who are working in the country after entering illegally or overstaying their visas.
Gosh, what a concept! Thou shalt not profit from breaking our laws! Hey, Republicans – are ya listening? But there is also another part to this than just using the incentive to come from their 3rd world hell-holes as they won’t find a job. And the other incentive addresses the other major thing that illegals must think about: “where to stay”:
Landlords will be expected to evict tenants who lose the right to live in England under new measures to clamp down on illegal immigration. They will be able to end tenancies, sometimes without a court order, when asylum requests fail, ministers say. Landlords will also be required to check a migrant’s status in advance of agreeing a lease. Repeat offenders could face up to five years in prison.
And lastly, they will go after a “loophole”:
Financial support for failed asylum seekers will also end under the plans.
I like LEGAL immigrants. I do not illegal ones. I expect my government to protect its borders – after all, we are a country after all and not just a huge border house for the world. Enough is enough. All we need is for our country to enforce a law already on the books – E-Verify. Deny illegals any claim to welfare benefits. And if an immigrant cannot show a valid visa or green card, or notification of citizenship, then deny them housing. All it takes is political will and the recognition that our laws should not be used to game our system (e.g., change our system).
Britain is learning the hard way what an open border policy, simply for political gain, has done to their country. Here, we have TWO Parties doing the same thing. For us, what will be that tipping point? You can add this as well:
THE CAMP OF THE SAINTS WAS JUST A NOVEL, RIGHT GUYS? RIGHT? GUYS? Millions of African migrants threaten standard of living, Philip Hammond says. “Philip Hammond, the Foreign Secretary, says ‘maurauding’ migrants around Calais pose risk to security of Channel Tunnel and that sending them to their home countries must be ‘number one’ priority.”
People who think that mass deportations are impossible need to research a little history. They’ve happened plenty of times before, and they’ll happen again if things continue along these lines.
Related: Africa’s Scramble for Europe. “If Africans were to migrate to Europe at the rate Mexicans have migrated to America since 1970, Millman notes, by 2050 a quarter of Europe’s population would be African-born. That probably won’t happen: The birthrate projections will be off, the migration patterns will be different, European countries will impose restrictions that actually succeed in keeping people out. But something significant is going to happen.”
The above can easily be used for the situation here in the US. After all and again, there is a purpose for being a country and flooding said country makes it “not that same country”. I, for one, will not vote for anyone running for President that advocates for either legalizing illegals to be in country nor for one that advocates for a path to citizenship. Yes, that goes for the Republican nominee, too. I will just not vote in that race. Why should vote for someone that runs counter to my beliefs and blesses people to be here THAT BROKE THE LAW to be here? How is that fair to those that have spent the money, time, and effort to follow our laws.
In this, if it is a Republican nominee that advocates thusly, it shows me that they have no problem in disregarding our Rule of Law. I’ve already lived almost two terms (Obama) and two terms before that (Bush) – I’m done with that.
