'How much more of our money is this Government willing to blow on bringing these useless and sometimes dangerous people to our country?'

Over 36,000 in, 42 out, and one back again. That is the latest national humiliation for Britain.

Remember that deal Starmer struck with pound-shop Napoleon, the so-called one in, one out deal? Well, as predicted, it’s been about as effective as a chocolate teapot.


According to The Guardian, a bloke we shipped back to France on September 19th was one of the few we managed to deport.

It was hailed as a milestone by Shabana Mahmood and the Labour Government, but just under four weeks later, guess what? He’s back, he hopped right back on a dinghy and washed up on our shores again on October 18th.

He claims he was scared of smugglers in Paris and claimed that France wasn’t safe. Yes the same France that sees 9.3 million British tourists a year, and is one of the most prosperous countries in the world.

On top of that latest humiliation, Keir Starmer has now abysmally and unequivocally failed to smash the gangs. In fact this Government is such a magnet for illegal migrants that they have smashed last years record of as small boat arrivals tally up to 37,500 with two full months to go before 2025's even done.

The grim milestone figure was passed at lunchtime as two Border Force vessels arrived at Dover harbour with 150 migrants on board.

And GB News can tonight exclusively reveal footage of one of the boats leaving France. GB News has obtained footage of those migrants on their way to break into Britain.

It’s always worth reminding the country of the cost, both monetarily and culturally to this country. The asylum hotel bill alone was north of £8billion under the Tories, now under Labour, it's still chewing through £6million a day just to house these arrivals.

That's your money, propping up luxury digs while Brits queue, in some cases for over a decade to get a council home. £60million dished out for private GP access for small boat arrivals, another £100million blown on "deterrence" measures that clearly aren't working, half a billion to French police to watch migrants as they float off to Britain and even £2.4million a year on snacks and catering during their welcome party screenings.

On top of all of that, we’ve had rapes, death threats aimed at politicians, murders, and paedophilia, all part of the great cultural enrichment, you are paying for, by the “doctors and nurses” coming to Britain.

We've seen rising anger at mass uncontrolled migration in Britain and it's no surprise to me that it's spread to Ireland too, to a protest in Dublin last night.

Riots tearing through the streets, hundreds raging outside a migrant hotel in Citywest after a reportedly rejected asylum seeker, who has apparently been facing deportation since March, was charged in connection with the alleged sexual assault of a 10-year-old girl.

Fireworks flying, cars torched, police battered with missiles. There’s been six arrests so far, and violent protest in whatever circumstance is not acceptable but it's the tip of the iceberg.

Our own GB News reporter, Dougie Beattie, and our camera woman, were subjected to violence from the Irish police themselves. Smacked to the ground, pepper-sprayed, and seemingly targeted like the free press were the enemy.

Dougie, hats off to you, you're a hero for fearlessly reporting on the truth.

But back here in the UK, how much more humiliation can we take? How much more of our money is this Government willing to blow on bringing these useless and sometimes dangerous people to our country?

My message to Keir Starmer and Shabana Mahmood is this - you might as well start the mass deportations of these men now, because if you don’t, the next Government will, and when they do, all the time and money you’ve wasted, all the crimes that are being committed, will be the only legacy you leave behind.
