What about moral obligation to help with some of the mess our foreign 'interventions' has lead to.

I see asylum and refugee status as something completely divorced from migration. The UK migration rates are a problem. In terms of asylum, the number of successful applicants have never exceeded the number of UK citizens leaving the country each year (at its highest its less than a 1 to 5 ratio). And before people hit the lefty defence, I voted to leave the EU because of the excessive EU migration that was undermining UK citizens. Even Farage wasn't against Asylum and refugees in terms of the UK accepting them. The only question really should be whether people are genuine in their application (and possibly a rationalisation and proper funding of the application system, and the deportation system). The UK has never had an asylum or refugee problem in terms of population numbers, and traditionally those granted asylum or refugee status have a history of being very positive in their integration into UK society.

Although we voted for Governments, there were mass protests against both Iraq wars. Let MP's pay for refugees, ....ahh I get it. They fcking won't.

Remember the 'Foreign Aid' the USA gave to Bhopal in the form of an unsafe chemical factory, and the pitiful compensation for generations of victims ? Are you asking that I be shafted by the western Governments by taxing and moral obligation and then give my last breath to the victims of their abuse ? How about the oil companies and weapons manufacturers ,that profited greatly from intervention, spend a proportion of their profits on making-good ? Not a fking chance

Sensible is the way forward. Not using emotive political grandstanding is the way forward.
