The Guardian has really been trying to blow this story up. It’s not that big of a deal when it’s people from the middle east getting deported, but when it’s Britons?
It sucks for the UK that a majority of those that voted to leave the EU are probably already dead, but that’s democracy for you.
In Sweden we have plenty of news about young people with parents from all over the world being deported despite being born here and had their education here and have a good job and are paying back in taxes.
Nobody but die hard nationalist and idiots are supporting this shit around here.
I mean, that’s probably part of the reason why Sweden is an outlier in the number of UK deportations. We got a right-wing government a couple years back, and they obviously want to please their constituents by saying “we deported this many criminals, remember to vote for us again!”
Britons are an easy target to pump those numbers up. There is usually nothing that hinders deportation to the UK, unlike to other countries with more instability/wars/etc.
A single referendum resulting in 52% to 48% split. Based upon lies repeated by captured media organisations and politicians. Implemented by multiple governments that all gained less than 50% of the popular vote. In a FPTP representative party parliamentary monarchy system. And ratified by an unelected chamber with hereditary members, is hardly what I would call democracy.

There’s definitely a good amount of first world hypocrisy here, but also Sweden’s conduct flies in the face of the withdrawal agreement Britain signed with the EU, so there is a story here.

It’s almost like the Guardian is a UK newsagent based in London.

Congrats, you won the internet award of the day for making Putin spit out his vodka this morning.
