I wasn't aware of any video.

It was literally a page back but here I'll link you directly:

I have read their immigration policy. It didn't make any sense; to me at least.

For instance it said anyone who is a foreign national and is in social housing, can't speak English, wont work, won't integrate - will be deported.

Now I'm all for deporting unsavoury foreigners who break the law and are here illegally. However when he was stating the criteria for deportations I was confused.

Does he mean any of those points constitute being deported, or all of them.

What are the parameters for integration? This is very broad for me.

Obviously some of those metrics are subjective and require time and money to find out (not happening) and others can be measured easily. But come on....you only have to think about it.

Examples of what can be measured easily and wouldn't require much work finding out:

Foreign national. Easy to find out.
Married to national. Easy to find out.
Social housing or not social housing. Easy to find out.
Employed and what kind of job. Easy to find out.

They aren't going to deal with the waffle of 'how integrated' someone is or spend the money finding out who can speak English properly....Too much money, too much resistance in the system, takes too long.

A foreign national could be working, speak English and be fully "intergrated" but live in social housing. Does that mean he's gone too.

Unlikely....How long they get to stay would be subject to what claim they have in being here.

What the feck are all these foreigners doing here?

Like I said, I'd be more likely to vote restore if I understood what they were promising.

Maybe be I'm thick, but I just don't get ot.

Maybe you're bright and I'm thick.....who cares.....We just do what we can and get on with it.

I watched the video and agreed with everything he said.

However it had nothing to do with my confusion with regards to the policy document.

You say some of its subjective, that's not good enough for me, personally.

If they are as truthful as Lowe points out, he will be able to make his views perfectly understandable.

You may get it, good luck to you. I'm still struggling

That's cool.

As Robert Shaw says in Jaws, 'nothing's easy is it'.

People can support Reform as their first choice, sure.

But do it with your eyes open at least. Don't say that later you didn't understand what Reform is.

Which is basically socially liberal but pro Brexit Tories 2.0.

Nothing will really change with Reform.....quite amusing considering the name.
