‘Think again, Prime Minister’ #shorts

think again prime minister that’s on the
front page of the independent today but
why incredibly sad to hear about the
deaths in the channel well a girl aged
seven was among five migrants who died
as they tried to cross the English
Channel on Tuesday the 23rd of April
just hours after parliament passed Rishi
sunak Flagship Rwanda bill this
triggered the United Nations to urge the
PM to reconsider his controversial plan
to send Asylum Seekers who arrive on
small boats like this one on a one-way
flight to Rwanda saying it marks a
further step away from the UK’s long
tradition of providing Refuge to those
in need so what does Rishi sunak say
about this it just underscores how
important it is that we stop these
criminal gangs who are exploiting
incredibly vulnerable people making
these illegal Crossings I want to stop
the boats

  1. Will the UN fund what they are expecting the good old British to do? Probably not…
    And how would the PM cancelling his plans alter the outcome of something that happened just off the coast of another country?

  2. They have no intention to send any migrant to Rawanda…they are bringing them in not sending them out! It’s just a smokescreen

  6. Why
    They are not from Rwanda
    They come from other countries
    History is in the making coming to bite every country colonized by Europe in the ass now they want their piece of freedom

  7. There here to stay now they have there foot under the table now crime up areas u can’t go into uk is lost forever so we better just get used to it

  8. Everyone is responsible for themselves and their children if anything happens to them it is on them if they didn't try to illegally enter the UK and followed UK law and entered the UK legally there would be no problems the French get paid a lot of money from the British taxpayer to stop these boats from entering the French side but there are videos showing the French escorting them to the British side and then handing them over to illegally enter the UK and the UK border patrol and RNLI are people smuggling them into the UK if a member of UK public smuggled a person into the UK they would be arrested and fined

  9. The coment of we should get use to it is insulting.imagin saying that in 1940. We dont get use to invasion we fight just like our fore fathers in ww2. Only diffrence its against the goverment.who clearly havnt got a clue or care about the uk. Reform uk

  12. Mahn look around ur society brits, is your daughters safe from grooming gangs and rapists. Is UK society became much more peaceful, did these illegal immigrants done anything good for there own country, NO THEY DIDN'T. UN my ass, they show case pakisthan,palestine, Ukraine,Myanmar as much more happier than my country INDIA, literally they are war torn nations still India is 126th place we can be in between 90 and 70 th place in the index, yet they choose the other wise. You know our countries fought major wars to place our societies and countries into what we are now. If these people really wanted to make there place much more livable then we should help them, rather they fleed from there own mess to love off in other nations and to eat off the sweat and hardships our ancestors and to make our societies a mess as well. Anything which is granted for free, will have no value. Let's help them to make there societies like ours or much better, but that's not they want.

  13. There are drones that see these people struggling and intentionally look the other way until it’s too late. Those drones are supplied by Israel

  15. For every boat that makes it, ten are preparing to attempt it over that success story should have sent them straight back from the start and many lives could have been saved because there wouldnt be any point trying if they get sent straight back.

  16. They are obsessed with the people traffickers but allow the Border Force and the RNLI to ferry people across the Channel. It was revealed this week that the French and UK authorities are complicit in the importation of illegals into the UK, they have a deal.

  18. Can British citizens get a free visa to the US please? Or free movement between the US, Canada, New Zealand & Australia.

  20. The little girl dying is her parents fault. The boy who drowned on the way to Greece; parents fault. The ones who drowned when the boat capsized; your fault.

  22. Trying to pretend these are thousands of child refugees and the picture even they show is a bunch of 20-30 year old blokes on a boat.
    You honestly couldn’t make it up 🤦‍♂️

  24. Imagine, someone letting go a litter child to cross illegality on those boats???? Why didn’t they stay in France but needed to try to dangerously cross on those boats for UK? Why? Ridiculous! Putting children in danger like this! Is it greed or is it a set up? How many illegals will satisfy the left? Just to mix nations so that we lose our contries in most Ridiculous ways without the fight.

  25. Oh suddenly after months and month children are mentioned!!!, when we all know it all just men coming over, About bloody time now get the ones that are here already OUT. Them maybe are gouvernment might have a bit more money to spend on us instead of throwing enless amounts at the ones that are here already Oh have a free house and phone and so on, and never mind are own elderly, poor and homeless!!!!!
