Watch: ‘Priti Patel is truly terrifying’ as she vows to turn back boats

"I’ve never disliked a politician more.. (I grew up in Thatcher’s 80s so that’s saying something)"

The Home Secretary, Priti Patel, has told Tory supporters there is “no reason” for an asylum seeker to cross the Channel from France as she renewed her vow to control the flow of small boats arriving into the UK.

In her speech to the Conservative Party conference on Tuesday, she said “France is a safe country, one not riven by war or conflict.”

“There is no reason why any asylum seeker should come to the United Kingdom directly from France.

“We make no apology for securing our borders and exploring all possible options to save lives by ending these horrific journeys.”

“For the first time, how somebody arrives in the United Kingdom will impact how their asylum claim is processed,” the minister told delegates. “Our new laws will speed up the removal of those with no legal right to be in our country,” she added.

She then went onto to tell the delegrates that she will ‘turn back the boats,’ and it is this clip that has sent shivers down many people’s spines.

Dr. Jennifer Cassidy tweeted: ‘Priti Patel is truly terrifying. ‘Turn back the boats’ she says to bouts of hesitant applause. As the insightful Hannah Arendt once said “the greatest evil perpetrated, is the evil committed by nobodies. That is by human beings who refuse to be persons.”’

I’m no longer sure she is human. She doesn’t seem to have compassion for anyone. I’ve never experienced anyone so hateful.

The sideways eye movement followed by the literally self inflating intake of breath. The body language of a mid-Twentieth century dictator. All we need is folded arms and jutting jaw.

I'm not being flippant, I really would like a psychological study of people in this government. They thrive on incompetence, hatred, division and anarchy. It's not even sociopathy, it's beyond that. How did all these people find each other and how are they vetted?

Well, apart from international law allowing it….🤔

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
