Harjap Singh Bhangal described the situation as a "shambles".

"The Home Office doesn't have any accurate data because we don't have exit controls. It's a shambles

Perhaps the majority will decide on Reform. The majority decided on Starmer but were wrong in my view although many still love him. Not me but other views are to be respected.

PS - with Estas you can not enter the USA with a criminal record which is correct. With the UK we let in anyone including terrorists and single male illegals who commit rape on school girls ( five in the last month ). Perhaps we should have Estas on those entering the UK like the USA system including photos and finger prints. I completely agree with this from a security perspective as at the moment who knows who is entering our country.

Actually, Al, the majority didn?t vote for Starmer; at the last election, Labour had a slightly smaller share of the vote than they did at the previous election. Labour really won by default, Reform split the right of centre vote, the Conservatives and Reform together polled nearly two million votes more than Labour. Labour got in with 33.7% of the vote and their huge majority was the result of our ?first past the post? electoral system. Basically, our electoral system is in a mess!
