42. Author: Luxembourg Par Date: Fri 8th May 2026. 19:11 jake89, Fri 8 May 10:44 That`s the point. Before Brexit we had the Dublin agreement. Though we`ve also seen an increase in legal non EU migrants, which I`m sure must anger your average Reform voter. Are you aware that the U.K. was net RECIPIENT of transfers under the Dublin agreement? Yes, proof is available - but this is a discussion for another thread. The obvious problem for those that keep quoting the Dublin agreement is that the receiving country has to agree to accept migrants back - and obviously, most of the time, they did not agree. The Dublin agreement was relegated to being a family reunification process. Reply

Which you can point partially at Brexit - or at least the French attitudes toward us after it. Mainly due to a massive increase of migration all over Europe from Syria/Afghanistan and sub-Saharan Africa - nothing to do with Brexit And absolutely nothing at all to do with the removal of Dublin agreement, which was completely useless as a tool to try sending migrants back to other European counties. If you want the exact Dublin removal figures, I have them. Reply
49. Author: jake89 Date: Sat 9th May 2026. 18:14 That may be so but it significantly reduced the UK’s ability to return irregular arrivals to Europe, which likely weakened deterrence and contributed to the growth in small-boat crossings after 2020. It was similar to the Rwanda scheme where the real hope was that the idea of being processed in Rwanda would put people off trying to enter in the first place. Of course, it`s not all black and white. We can add in things like people switching from lorries to boats and the fact the UK seems to be utterly hopeless at processing people quickly! Reply

The UK’s ability to whut? Dublin agreement was in place for the U.K. from 2014 to 2020 In that whole time, exactly 2,015 people were transferred out. Not exactly gonna solve much. / in addition, it should be pointed out that the U.K. received 4,030 transfers IN. Yep, that’s right, your much vaunted Dublin Agreement allowed DOUBLE the number of migrants in than were shunted out - hold the applause. Reply
51. Author: thebear Date: Sun 10th May 2026. 01:41 Nah spinney is more interested in indy, rather than getting scotland right, it`s well known fact that and indy scotland cannot afford all the perks gives in trying lure to vote snp. Not with a population of 5.5m million and taxpayers of 3 million. And farage the biggest crook and liar out there, hes Elon musks sacrificial lamb, trumps mad bedfelliw and putins buddy, so no. Don`t know who, but it won`t be green either as their policy is unworkable, it won`t be labour as they under stalmerr are crap. Oh dear!!! Post Edited (Sun 10 May 01:42) Reply
52. Author: jake89 Date: Sun 10th May 2026. 10:20 You`re missing the point Lux. It was a deterrent purely because it existed, not because it was effective (or not). This was the reason for the failed Rwanda scheme. Reply
53. Author: Luxembourg Par Date: Sun 10th May 2026. 13:34 I agree that Rwanda was intended to be a déterrant by compelling new arrivals straight out. The Dublin Agreement? The transfer out of a few hundred WILLING migrants a year, to be beside family in another EU country that agreed in advance to take them? Not a deterrent in the slightest. I’m not the one missing the point. Reply

57. Author: Wotsit Date: Mon 11th May 2026. 15:21 Them`s the rules, they were the same for everyone. Typical of your mob to whinge and complain after being roundly beaten. Scotland`s electorate firmly rejected this sort of petty identity politics, and if you don`t like that you can always move to Russia - I hear they lap it up there. “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.
