UK to take 20,000 Afghan refugees over five years under resettlement plan

Presumably the tories are hoping most of them don't last the 5 years and get brutally murdered by the Taliban before being allowed to travel to the UK.

Duh. Brexit was an utterly pointless affair that, even at best, changed nothing.

Don't be silly, it made a lot of rich people richer for one.

20,000 over five years is a small number tbh.

Every country that was involved with ****ing up Afghanistan should be forced into taking Afghan refugees.

Consequences have actions.

Yeah businesses were mostly against Brexit. Because losing access to the biggest market in the world wont help anyone here economically.

It was to send a message to the EU that we are dumb enough to vote leave if you don’t change. It may have just been a bluff, but we’re here now.

If the goal was scortched earth, I can think of better ways.

The one good thing about Brexit is that it was a peoples movement which brought about change against what most politicians and big businesses wanted.

Unfortunately it was a stupid cause to be so passionate about. Even more unfortunate its hero was Nigel Farage.

I'll be honest DT, I think it was the wealthy manipulating the people in a social and money grab. Farage is a Dulwich College educated far right nut.

Well he himself made plenty of money off the EU as an MEP for all those years.
