Dubious Deterrent

Having recently assisted Mr Churchill in defeating the proto-Strasbrussels menace of National Socialism, Britain's greatest ally has intervened with characteristic helpfulness in the war on refugees. The US State Department's annual report on human rights states that conditions in Rwanda's detention centres include harsh and life-threatening conditions, arbitrary detention, serious restrictions on free expression and no proper collective bargaining system. Even allowing for Washington's notorious lefty lawyerdom, we can surely detect a subtle hint here as to why His Majesty's Government finds the country such a convenient wog warehouse. Indeed, in its no-nonsense attitude to homeless persons, and in the bracing lack of health-and-safety wokeness in the transit centres operated by the sniggeringly-named National Rehabilitation Service, Rwanda demonstrates a commendable ambition to emulate conditions on the mainland. It is to be hoped that over-zealous patriots do not allow the perfect to be the enemy of the suitable, and try to sabotage the transportation scheme on the grounds that swarming hordes should not monopolise the sort of lifestyle which the great British public has consistently voted for itself.
