Nice plan.

Shame that they'll never be able to make it work.

UK Lawmakers Could Set Annual Cap on Refugee Numbers, Says Home Office Minister

Parliament could be given powers to set an annual cap on the number of asylum-seekers or refugees allowed to enter the UK, a Home Office minister has revealed.

In an interview with The Telegraph newspaper, Robert Jenrick, the Minister of State for Immigration, set out his ambition for a new asylum system that would offer "safe and legal" routes for genuine refugees—while barring asylum claims from those arriving in the UK illegally by crossing the English Channel in small boats.

Jenrick said the number of asylum seekers or refugees entitled to enter the UK would be subject to a cap annually agreed upon by Parliament in view of the country's "finite resources."

I agree.  A typical poorly thought out plan which will never work.
I predict that the only time this country will stop seeing economic migrants flooding ashore will be when the country has become another third-world nation like those in Africa and the Middle East.
Only then will the invaders do an about-turn and head off to places where they can get more for nowt!

How can they set a numbers cap when they have no idea how many are here already  ?     

The EU needs to do away with open borders and that will never happen.
Sweden, Belgium, France all over run, over crowded, violent places to live now.  UK and Ireland will eventually be the same - in fact parts already are.

They will never do it, they want these people here although they tell you they don't.

Always looks like he needs to invest in a full box of ex-lax to me. An accomplished serial liar and professional know nothing jobsworth to boot.

Can you still buy that  ?

I think it' been renamed "Dulcolax" today? On consideration somehow 'Senokot' seems to fit his over-caloried face better, 2 lbs or so should do the job?
