Britain must enact a Trump-style mass deportation policy...and I have a plan for going about it - Adam Brooks

This isn't about skin colour or the country that they have arrived from, this is about the safety of our communities, the safety of our children and having confidence that the authorities know exactly who is in our country and what crimes they've previously committed.

Unfortunately, this isn't the case with most migrants arriving via the channel. We have no idea about their past, as they destroy IDs and misrepresent where they are from to try and guarantee asylum claims.

Denmark and other European countries document crimes by nationality, highlighting the disproportionate rate at which these migrants commit sexual and violent crimes, if the public knew this here, there would be utter outrage and pure horror.

Many of these migrants have no idea about our laws and what is the expected way to behave while in Britain.

We have seen some heinous crimes by illegal immigrants and asylum seekers, including terrorism.

A 2020 report for the Pew Research Centre estimated that there could be as many as 1.2 million people residing in the UK without valid permission. Almost five years on, I truly worry about what that figure is now.

GB news is at the forefront of reporting the illegal channel crossings, reporting daily from Dover and monitoring arrival numbers.

Already, 33,000 migrants have crossed the channel in 2024 to date and that is just the ones we know about - how many more came in undetected or in vans and lorries?

Donald Trump has declared a national emergency at the US border and has vowed to deport anyone who arrived there illegally once he takes power in January. It is that rhetoric that got him a landslide victory, one I believe is mirrored here in the daily conversations I have with customers, friends and followers on social media.

Unfortunately, we have weak politicians who have previously talked tough on illegal immigration, but have cowed to ECHR rulings, British courts and the left-leaning media and have failed to act on this huge problem.

I cannot see Keir Starmer daring to remove illegal entrants that are from Afghanistan, Iran, Eritrea, or Pakistan, countries that make up the majority of these crossings, even though European neighbours such as Germany have started to do so.

These politicians do not see the societal damage from dumping tens of thousands of these migrants into our communities, they do not see the effect on local people, their businesses, their local hotels and high roads.

These MPs will never be affected by these new arrivals, but we will and it has to end. These people mostly do not speak English, or have any chance of employment or fitting into British society, most will end up taking from this country instead of contributing to it.

It is time to declare a national emergency in the UK, just like Trump and detain those who arrive here without documents. A deal needs to be made with a third country, and those who claim to come from war-torn countries get deported there. Otherwise, the rest need to be returned from where they came.

We must have a deterrent and until that happens, these people will continue to come en masse for the cash-in-hand jobs, free housing, free food, free healthcare and other perks that they get on arrival.

Unless we change course very quickly, our country will be unrecognisable in less than 10 years.
