Absolutely brilliant- you’ve managed to coherently sum up exactly what I incoherently think. ‘Stop the boats’ is the UK’s ‘build the wall’ - and the only difference between the parties on this is the degree of technocracy involved.

Thank you, Nigel. "Technocracy" is exactly the word.

This is the one that finally (sorry, I know it's overdue) tipped me over to paying for a subscription

Great column Mic and well done for speaking out- it's important that we do on this issue.

The BBC, in cravenly giving in to demands to upbraid Lineker, on the lines of faux balance (an issue which should not demand 'balance') is no better imo. If this is the opposition we get from the media, we're truly screwed..

Thank you, Jamie. I think we'll see it reach a crunch point with Lineker today. They're really cranking the pressure up.

Yep it seems so. BBC management going even further down in my estimation atm..
