Whether you agree with what happend in Afghanistan or not (I'm entirely anti colonialist war), our government that we elected prosecuted that war. Our government is our representatives, therefore the war was prosecuted on our behalf.Brilliant, instead of holding the government responsible for its failures, let the citizens pick up the bill. What's next having native brits serve the sentences of the criminal afghans for them ?
Afghans as a group are the most likely to offend in your country.

You don't get to choose which bits are right for you, if you want that you can fuck off out of the country. Here we are all in it together.
So just as I want my taxes to pay for the veterans of that wars care, as I want my taxes to pay for social workers to help children of abusive parents, as I want my taxes to pay for people's poor lifestyle choices in their healthcare; I also want us to uphold our end of the bargain with those who served our interests overseas.
I think it would be pretty grim not to.
The story here is that they kept it quiet to not lose more votes to reform. That's the gross part. They denied us a national conversation.
Articles from a he late 2000s suggest there was less than 2,000 Afghan interpreters.

how did this decision improve the lives of brits?

It was 19,000 and their families I believe, interpreters, guides, staff etc who served the British efforts against their people.Articles from a he late 2000s suggest there was less than 2,000 Afghan interpreters. Brittain did not use 150,000 interpreters.
None. Which is why we need to elect a non interventionist government led by someone of demonstrable moral character. Rather than the shills like Blair, Cleg, Cameron, Borris and Starmer.what interests were served by the UK going to Afghanistan?

Same, which is why I look forward to voting with you for a party that declares itself as non interventionist and that supports peace actions at best.None
It didn't
No one was asked because they know the answer would be a resounding NO
Frankly I'm getting really fucking sick of being told we (the people) keep going around and fucking up other countries, and we therefore deserve to have our lives impacted, all due to the bullshit games played by the government
If I'm judging MPs by their actions/inactions, that already removes about 99% of the fieldI think I'd want them to be deported back to Afghanistan if they rape someone. That would probably do it.

I get that we've been mugged forever, but I think that the information age is giving opportunities to us as well as those in power. Don't believe their lies, look at base verifiable data, judge MPs on their voting records, challenge misinformation.
150,000 Afghanis, with those on the list allowed to take their extended family.Ah, Mr Excrement, delighted you could make it. Please allow me to introduce you to Mr Rotational Air Cooling Device.
According to some reports, as many as 24,000 Afghans could eventually be relocated. So I crunched the numbers: if just half of one percent are naughty, that equates to one hundred and twenty potential terrorists. To put that in perspective, four suicide bombers killed over fifty innocent people on 7/7.
The government covered this up because they feared it might cause civil unrest if the truth was known. They were right to be afraid. If a terror attack is ever directly linked to Afghans brought into the UK under this scheme, the Southport Riots will look like a Waffle House on a slow Thursday night.
well since that isn't happening with the ones already there im sure more will help the situation right ?I think I'd want them to be deported back to Afghanistan if they rape someone. That would probably do it.
Well I'm not really a fan of that either. You were asking what I would be ok with. I told you what I'd be ok with.well since that isn't happening with the ones already there im sure more will help the situation right ?
You support an initiative that will make crimes like this a guarantee, not a hypothetical. Multiple women will be raped and likely little to nothing to be done about it. As per usual.Well I'm not really a fan of that either. You were asking what I would be ok with. I told you what I'd be ok with.
The thing about screwing the pooch is that you've already done it and there ain't no going back.You support an initiative that will make crimes like this a guarantee, not a hypothetical. Multiple women will be raped and likely little to nothing to be done about it. As per usual.
But this is the price we must pay for the government being a corrupt war machine right ? Even the Aztecs didn't have this level of human sacrifice.
FIrst question to anyone thinks up these hair brained schemes: "Where is the housing for these people?"
Hold those responsible accountable, stop voting for these parties. We used to hold trials for politicians for fucking up this bad, what happened to that ?The thing about screwing the pooch is that you've already done it and there ain't no going back.
It doesn't mean they should be presumed anything, it also doesn't mean you should put your own people at risk to find out. The government wants to not only bring them in but their entire extended familes reaching up to numbers like 150,000.So whilst we can all agree that rape is bad, and that a high amount of it happens on Afghanistan, likely many 100's per 100,000 of population, that doesn't mean we can say these people that helped our war machine propagate an Israeli war don't deserve to be presumed innocent until found guilty and looked after until they are.
Yes it is hyperbole, but is to the illustrate the point that human sacrifice is wrong and this immigration policy is a form of human sacrifice, people will be raped and killed because of this.And you should read up on the Aztecs. It was reported that they sacrificed over 80,000 over four days. Whilst likely an inflation you can likely agree worse by some way than a handful of rapes in a year.
But hey! Let's not let history or facts get in the way of exciting hyperbole and logical fallacies.
