Afghan Importation and the Super-Injunction.

I first heard whispers about the unmarked aircraft arriving into the UK some time at the beginning of last year. Sadly it coincided with the death of my mother, so there wasn't much I could do to explore the phenomena.

I kind of forgot about it, just passing it off as yet another one of those things that happens. It was so long ago I've kind of forgotten if there was mention of any injunction. But to be honest, if we are saving Afghan interpreters that have helped our military and their families, we kind of owe a debt to them. I wasn't that bothered, and let it lie. 

It's sort of on the same level as allowing people from Hong Kong to enter the UK (after massive scrutiny to weed out Chinese Communist spies, of course).

I'm sure that the Afghans will understand the opportunity afforded them by the UK and make the best use of it. Their girls will have a better life and hopefully being on a UK military base and rubbing shoulders with ordinary UK squaddies will have given them an inkling of what potential there is here.

I have less tolerance towards illegal immigrants who have never contributed anything towards the UK, it's allies or it's military.

But, 6 (or 7) Billion pounds? really? Compare that to the amount of money expended towards helping house homeless UK squaddies and their families. Yeah.

That's really all I've got to say on the matter.
