If any Statue is to be pulled down it should be Mrs Thatcher's

Mrs Thatcher was elected on 3 May 1979 with a promise to cut immigration to the UK. But within days she allowed Vietnamese to settle here, and within weeks Iranians. Within months she had broken her promise to stop foreign men using marriage to live in the UK. So why has she got a statue?!.... Britain is perceived as weak and divided. In the 1970s Vietnamese boat people sailed past Chinese ports and Portuguese Macao to get to Hong Kong. In the Summer of 1979 Iranians on the wrong side of the Revolution knew where to go - Heathrow..... Illegals from Vietnam and Iran are now encouraged to come here by their compatriots already here..... And Vietnam and Iran want hard currency, so they don't take back their illegals who other countries want to deport..... Yesterday a record number of illegals crossed the English Channel - 180 in 15 small boats - and were escorted into Dover by the UK Border Force. This ridiculous situation of the UK Border Force doing the exact opposite of what it was established to do was, of course, on the orders of Britain's Home Secretary, Priti Patel. More boats arrived today. Priti Patel today unveiled Britain's POST-BREXIT POINTS-BASED IMMIGRATION SYSTEM. This "offers equality of access to people of all countries." It's not equality if Brits can live in EU countries but can't live in, say, Asian countries. Reciprocity between countries is equality.
