Border Force? More like Parcel Force

It is becoming increasingly clear that the Conservative Party’s promises to tackle migration contained more hot air than an asylum seeker’s dinghy.




Far from protecting our borders, The Daily Mail yesterday revealed that a Border Force craft even asked permission to enter French waters so it could shepherd a migrant boat to Britain.

It seems that in addition to making zero progress on closing the Channel Route, Priti Patel and Boris Johnson have now turned Border Force into Parcel Force for migrants – although, to be fair, it seems to deliver its packages far more efficiently than the real Parcel Force.
