It is time to sack the asylum seeker-loving immigration judges. Our judiciary is infested with a cabal of political activists in wigs, who seem to do their best to keep total wrong'uns in Britain so that us plebs have to live amongst them.

Let's look at some bonkers cases.


Judge Fiona Beach, an immigration judge who was formerly a director of Asylum Aid and represented migrants pro-bono on behalf of the bail for immigration detainees.

Sheila, a knife wielding, drug dealing sex criminal, stay because she said that the evidence showed he was not a "sufficiently serious threat".

Judge Leonie Hirst allowed an Albanian burglar with 50 convictions to remain in Britain because she said that his crimes were "not very extreme" and wouldn't cause "deep public revulsion". I mean, she was wrong about that one.

She also allowed a Guinean asylum seeker who was guilty of knife and drug offences to stay because he was socially and culturally integrated.

She was also involved in a 2015 litigation that ended fast track decisions while migrants were held in removal centres.

Hey, look! Shock, horror. It turns out that she served as a director at the now-closed Refugee Legal Centre while working as a barista in the mid 2000s.

On now to Judge Rebecca Chapman. She's apparently a deputy judge in the Upper Tribunal Immigration and Asylum chamber.

She also worked for the charity Refugee Legal Support, while an Iranian asylum seeker has been allowed to have his deportation case reheard after claiming - get this - he had so many Facebook friends that he was at risk of persecution if he was deported. Thank you very much. Your honour.

Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick is actually calling this stuff out.

Speaking in Manchester, Robert Jenrick said: "Judges who blur the line between adjudication and activism can have no place in our justice system, which is why we won't just tinker with a broken system and reform immigration tribunals. We will abolish them once and for all."

One of the people that he name-checks is this guy.

In a social media video, Mr Jenrick said: "Before his appointment, Judge Symes volunteered for bail for immigration detainees even after his appointment.

"He takes public positions on social media on illegal migration proposals, and he even advertises his judicial office to drum up business for his immigration advisory services."

Yeah, I mean, I just had a look at that charity group earlier, and it is actually crystal clear. I get this this is a quote.

"We dream of a world free of immigration detention, where people are not deprived of their liberty or deported from their home. We aim to end immigration detention in the UK."

So, here's Judge Canavan. She refused to deport a Jamaican convicted rapist and crack cocaine dealer, accepting that they'd face persecution or indeed hardship if deported.

She was previously a refugee charity case worker and volunteered on cases, you guessed it, preventing deportation. Just to round us off Robert Jenrick uncovered another one.

In the video, Mr Jenrick said: "Judge Heaven. Judge heaven. She spent five years before she became a judge, volunteering for bail for immigration detainees. And even after becoming a judge, she took to social media to celebrate the defeat of the government's Rwanda plan. These people should have no place in our justice system."

Yep, the days of judges being beyond reproach is over. The establishment hate it. Just look at Emily Maitlis' barely concealed fury that Robert Jenrick dared to call this stuff out.

In interview, Ms Maitlis asiked: "If you had an anti-immigration judge, can I just ask you, if you had an anti-immigration judge, would that be an activist judge?

Responding, the Shadow Justice Secretary said: "Can you defend someone who, on social media has given their views on immigration? Or who is the trustee of a pro borders charity? No, of course not. I wouldn't do that."

"So when Lib Dems call it a Trumpian purge, what's your response to that?" Ms Maitlis asked.

"I'm defending the judiciary. I'm defending the judiciary," Mr Jenrick maintained.

Okay. They hate it because they know it's game over. It's over. Okay. The British public are not going to bow down in deference anymore.

If they don't like it, they can leave the profession and go and work for refugee charities like Baroness Brenda Hale, the former president of the Supreme Court. She heard many cases involving refugees and asylum seekers.

After retiring, she became a commissioner for the Commission of the Integration of Refugees. Well, I'm sorry, but GB News is here now and we're not too scared to call this stuff out.

I find it very hard to believe that this procession of pro refugee asylum seeker lovers managed to leave their personal views at the door when they walked into the courtroom.
