On top of the boat people we are apparently starting to get an influx of people from the Chagos islands. Since the U.K. has decided to give up the sovereignty of the islands those British dependants living in Chagos who want to remain under British rule are making their way here.

Whether this is right or wrong is perhaps a discussion for another time, it's just adding to the ever increasing numbers entering Britain. The one in one out policy really needs to step up a gear as at the moment the ratio of the in's far outways the ratio of the out's.

I employ several staff and am now expected to conduct a 'right to work' scrutiny.
Our N.I. numbers should automatically provide our identities surely.

This situation has been increasing for many years and I doubt any one Party is to blame for not tightening things up.
Some will be very much in need others of needing safety others not so.
The one thing we all know is it cannot go on, we just don't have the recourses in our small country.
It's a difficult and humane situation isn't it.

Now the comeback kid has been sacked {again} Mandelson has come and gone more times than a boomerang and I don't think he's done yet.

 I'm not siding with anyone over this but the talk about Epstein and his "friends" and what they knew or didn't know seems to imply that just because you knew him you were "in on it". Admittedly when all this came out anyone with any inkling should have dropped him like a hot potato, in Mandelson's case he obviously didn't so conclusions have been drawn as to whether he was in the know or not.

It's a question of whose books are going to be out first his or Rayners!

Actually I have thought the same we could be friends with someone and not know what they get up to privately so I wouldn't condemn anyone for 'knowing' the creep.

Most things seem to come from other countries these days. There's little choice of buying British.

I've seen more this year but not on the scale others are reporting.
I don't mind them ( now spiders  :-? :-? They can do one!
As a child I loved them on my hand the only thing I didn't like was the orange poop they gave me as a thank you  :))

At the moment what is annoying me is ladybirds...we can't open our windows for them, it's been like this for about a fortnight now.
There's at least half a dozen on the living room window and the same on the dining room window and plenty flying round the garden I'm sick of them!

I have been worried about the state of the nations decline in manufacturing.

The loss of the coal industry the decimation of the steel industry and the rapid decline in our car industry, but fear not help is at hand.

Galloping over the hill to save the day are Content creators....Influencers...Podcasters....Reality t.v. stars, there's nothing these people won't do {for money}.

With those people guiding us we have nothing to fear!!
