From Choose Love to City of Sanctuary UK, here are the worst offenders at pushing open borders
Which organisations should be tackled first to secure Britain's borders?
In recent weeks there have been yet more terrible stories about small boat criminals in the news. In one case, three asylum seekers (two from Egypt and one from Iran) were found guilty of gang raping a vulnerable young woman on Brighton beach. It seems almost every week we are subjected to a similar story, mostly involving girls and women being seriously hurt.
How do these crimes keep happening? Lots of different reasons, of course, including Prevent not being fit for purpose…
But today I am going to return to what I call the open border complex, and focus on some of its greatest enablers (mostly charities).
In other words, which entities, in my view, have been the worst offenders at creating open borders? Without further ado:
Successive governments
I can’t really start off this piece without pointing a finger at the Government, and not just this current one. The Conservatives haemorrhaged taxpayers’ money on many organisations facilitating open borders, such as: Asylum Aid (£837,000, 2020-24), Asylum Welcome (£2,881,770, 2021-25), the British Refugee Council (£41,588,000, 2021-25), Migrant Help (£153,592,000, 2020-24), Migrant Training Company (£2,119,910, 2020-24) and Refugee Action (£16,765,000, 2021-25). Readers can find even more examples on my Substack.
