Subject: RE: BS: Tory party conference
Excellent Home Secretary my fat bottom. She has presided over the very thing she claims as a major evil (I profoundly disagree with her, but on her own terms she's an abject failure). The shameful border controls fiasco of several years ago happened on her watch. With her fierce talk of protecting our borders, etc., she is pandering to her fellow Tory hard-liners on immigration and even more to the racists of UKIP and she has to keep one eye on Cameron's stupid hostage-to-fortune referendum. She is instituting extremely harsh measures for immigrants in her attempts to keep people out, many or even most of whom would be of great benefit to this country. Without immigration on a large scale, for example, the NHS would collapse. It's all political manoeuvring with hardly a thought as to the best interests of this country. Immigration has never been a burden and need never be, as long as we decide to adapt to what is as plain as the noses on our faces, that mass migration is here to stay, and that we'd better get used to the idea.
