The former chancellor spoke of the importance of having control of our borders as it was revealed that a record number of people attempted to cross the English Channel on Monday. Mr Sunak described the migrant crisis as an emergency and promised to make a priority the prevention of migrants attempting to get into the UK illegally. He said he would remove the European definition of asylum by way of ensuring the Rwanda policy can go ahead as it remains ensnared in the legal system.

Mr Sunak said: Earlier in this campaign, I talked about some of the emergencies facing this country and illegal immigration is one of the ones I listed that I would tackle as a priority as Prime Minister.

I think it is wrong. My family came here because this country has a proud history of welcoming migrants.

But that has to be done legally. It has to be done fairly. When people are exploiting the system, that is wrong and it must be stopped. Ive set out a detailed plan of how to get to grips with it.

It involves removing the European definition of asylum, moving to a different international definition. That will help us remove people.

I will do whatever it takes to make the Rwanda plan work because we must have control of our borders and as Prime Minister, that is what I will deliver."

The number of migrants arriving in Britain in small boats hit a record for a single day on Monday, as the rise in dangerous crossings over the English Channel continues despite the government's plans to deport those arriving illegally to Rwanda.

Britain's Ministry of Defence said 1,295 people in 27 boats were intercepted after making the crossing from the European mainland on Monday.

The figure surpasses the previous daily record of 1,185 set last November.

The outgoing Prime Minister Boris Johnson had hoped that the threat of deporting people to Rwanda announced in April alongside other efforts, such as handing the navy the responsibility for intercepting migrants, would act as a deterrent to those arriving in dinghies and small boats.

Not only are they an overt abuse of our immigration laws but they risk the lives of vulnerable people, who are being exploited by ruthless criminal gangs.

In 2021, 28,526 people were detected arriving on small boats - with the highest number from Iran followed by Iraq, Eritrea, and Syria.

So far this year, more than 22,000 migrants have come to Britain, with government officials warning 60,000 could arrive by the end of the year.

Both candidates vying to replace Johnson as prime minister, Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak, have promised to push ahead with the Rwanda plan.

DECRYPTION After a year of crises, it will be necessary much more than a visit to trigger a new dynamic between the two countries.

The winter was long and the spring cold. But Emmanuel Macrons determination to revive the moody bilateral relationship with Algiers finally paid off: at the invitation of Abdelmadjid Tebboune, the Head of State went to Algeria from August 25 to 27 with a delegation including seven ministers and about twenty parliamentarians. In the mysteries of Algerian power, halfway between the official decision and the networks of the intelligence services, where one is often annoyed to this France which always seeks to force through, it is hinted that a more discreet visit and especially without the chief rabbi of France would have sufficed.

But Emmanuel Macron can for the moment count on a precious asset: the support for his maneuvers from his counterpart, with whom the current flows well, who understands France and the exercise of power, like him more at ease with the speech of truth than diplomatic contortions.

Abel Michua-Tototzin, 37, was found guilty on August 17, 2022.

A Mexican man was found guilty of multiple federal felonies related to smuggling illegal aliens.

Abel Michua-Tototzin, 37, was found guilty on August 17, 2022, following a three-day trial before U.S. District Judge Taylor McNeel in Gulfport. Michua-Tototzin was found guilty of conspiracy to bring one or more aliens into the United States at a place other than a designated port of entry; conspiracy to unlawfully transport aliens within the United States; unlawful transportation of one or more aliens within the United States; and unlawful return of an alien to the United States after deportation or removal.

Michua-Tototzin faces maximum penalties of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for his conspiracy convictions; 5 years in prison, a $250,000 fine, and $5,100 in special assessments for his conviction of unlawful transportation; and 2 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for unlawful return after deportation or removal. After completing any sentence of incarceration, he is subject to Homeland Security proceedings to remove him again from the U.S. Judge McNeel will determine his sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors. Sentencing is scheduled for November 21, 2022, at 1:30 p.m. in Gulfport.

On April 27, 2022, a Hancock County Sheriffs Deputy conducted a traffic stop on a 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe bearing a North Carolina license plate on I-10 eastbound. The driver, Michua-Totozin, and his four passengers only had identification from Mexico; but, because the U.S. Border Patrol could not respond, Michua-Tototzin was released. After their release, the Border Patrol determined that Michua-Tototzin and his passengers all had been illegally present in the U.S.

On May 17, 2022, the Border Patrol stopped the same vehicle traveling eastbound on I-10 again and being driven by Michua-Tototzin. He did not have a drivers license and was found, along with his six passengers, to be illegally present in the U.S. The vehicle was overloaded by two persons, with seat belts for only five people.

U.S. Attorney Darren J. LaMarca, of the Southern District of Mississippi, Jason E. Schneider, Chief Patrol Agent of the U.S. Border Patrols New Orleans Sector, and David Denton, Special Agent-in-Charge of U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement, Homeland Security Investigations, in New Orleans, made the announcement.

U.S. Attorney LaMarca praised the investigative efforts and coordination of the Border Patrol, Homeland Security Investigations and the Hancock County Sheriffs Department.

Mexican Man Convicted for Conspiracy & Transporting Illegal Aliens within the U.S. - YallPolitics

Who are the Dreamers in America? In recent years the term has been used to describe young people who have been brought to America illegally. But taking a leaf from the Democratic playbook I would like to suggest a change of use. From now on can we use the term Dreamers to describe anyone who believes that this countrys border system can go on as it is?

The sort of people who think that it is sustainable to have millions of illegal immigrants flood into the United States every year. The people who think that having any border at all is basically bigoted.

Such views used to be held only by a progressive fringe. But today they are mainstream on the Democratic side. That is how far the Democratic Party has moved.

It isnt so long ago that they thought differently. In 1996 the partys platform said, Todays Democratic Party also believes we must remain a nation of laws. We cannot tolerate illegal immigration and we must stop it. Just consider the difference between that platform of only a quarter of a century ago and the same party today. Today that statement would be said to be restrictionist, bigoted and probably racist.

In only a few decades illegal migrants have become undocumented migrants, Dreamers and much more. The Democratic Party has moved from worrying about illegal immigration toward encouraging it. As they did when they stopped construction of the border wall. Like their left-wing counterparts in Europe, they seem to believe that anyone trying to break into the country is an asylum seeker and that countries like the US have a duty to take in anyone in the world who wants to move here.

Just one of the problems of this is that it is unsustainable. A fact that is finally hitting Dem politicians where it hurts. On their own doorstep.

It used to be so easy for leftists in Washington and New York to talk the mantras of the day. No human is illegal became one of the fatuous slogans of our day. Say that you wanted a wall on the southern border and you were a nativist. Say that you were opposed to it and you got virtue points.

All this did was to encourage the flow of illegal migrants across the southern border. In a poll last year, members of the progressive left said by a whopping 86% that they agreed with the phrase People who have immigrated into the US illegally generally make the communities they live in better. They said that because for them it was all just theory. Only people in places like Texas had to experience it in reality.

Well now we are all getting that opportunity. And the lefts ideas about open borders are suddenly being tested across the nation.

Governor Greg Abbott of Texas is completely within his rights to try to distribute migrants around the country. If politicians in Washington are going to grandstand about migration then why should it only be Texans who suffer the consequences?

So the buses have started to arrive. In DC and New York. And even though this is just a taste of what could come, already left-wing officials in both cities are grandstanding and whining. Radical leftists like New York City Council member Shahana Hanif are actually encouraging the move. This week she boasted about standing at the Port Authority Bus Terminal to welcome asylum seekers. Note the change of language there. On their bus journey to New York these people turn from illegal immigrants to asylum seekers.

Other New York officials are complaining that the whole thing is unfair on them. Since May, New York has received over 4,000 illegal immigrants from Texas. You can see the results at the DHS shelters in the city, where Central and South American families with large numbers of children hopelessly wander in and out. You can see it at the citys homeless shelters, which are now feeling the strain from all these people from outside the state. And it isnt as though everything was easy in New York before this.

But what did the left-wing open-borders people think would happen? New York is straining under a few thousand illegal migrants being added to the city. But that is just a few hours of the illegal immigrants coming across the southern border. Where were they meant to go?

For me this brings on some terrible dj vu. Because I saw this happen once before, in Europe during the 2015 migration crisis.

Then, as now, the continents southern border was open. Then, as now, people who just wanted a better life started to flood in. And because the lefts narrative held, for a time, the borders opened up. Suddenly every economic migrant from Africa and the Middle East was called an asylum seeker. Soon the thousands of migrants turned into hundreds of thousands and then millions. Yet that transformative year in Europe is now an average year in numbers of people illegally entering the US.

Then, as now, people in the places where the migrants arrived bore the brunt of the lefts policies. But soon the migrants had to be dispersed elsewhere. They were sent north to Germany, Scandinavia and the other countries that had boasted about their open-border ideals.

It didnt take much of this first-hand experience of illegal migration to change minds. Soon enough all the economic and social problems of unlimited illegal immigration hit home and the borders closed back up.

In America, by contrast, cities like this one have not really had to experience the consequences of the policies that New York council members, among others, encourage. Such people presume that this country can easily absorb millions of illegal migrants every year. Millions of people who have broken the law to get here. Making fools of the people who followed the rules. Well see how well this goes. But if the left seriously thinks it can go on then, sorry, but theyre the dreamers.

ROME, Aug 12 (Reuters) - Italy's conservative bloc will cut taxes, crack down on immigration and scrap the current system of welfare benefits if it wins next month's election as expected, the group said in a joint manifesto.

The conservative alliance is dominated by two rightist parties, Giorgia Meloni's Brothers of Italy and Matteo Salvini's League, flanked by the more moderate Forza Italia led by 85-year-old former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.

A 15-point joint programme released by the parties on Thursday evening contains little detail and mainly reiterates pledges already made by the parties individually during the campaign for the Sept. 25 election.

It promises "lower taxes for families, firms and the self-employed", with a so-called "flat tax" or single tax rate, on annual income of up to 100,000 euros for the self-employed and on any increase in income from one year to the next.

Tax cuts are a traditional rallying cry for the Italian right, which argues that the boost to economic growth will offset any reduction in revenues.

The bloc also promises to increase minimum pensions and increase scope for early retirement.

Italy's Recovery Plan of reforms presented to the European Union last year in return for some 200 billion euros ($205.80 billion)of pandemic relief funds will be amended "due to the changed conditions, needs and priorities," the programme says.

It did not specify what it wanted to change.

The manifesto promises to curb illegal immigration, another strong conservative theme, by blocking migrant boats with the help of local African authorities and through the creation of "hot spots" run by the European Union to assess asylum requests before migrants reach the EU.

The conservative alliance is on track to win a comfortable parliamentary majority at the election, a study showed on Tuesday, helped by the divisions among its opponents. read more

Meloni, whose party leads most opinion polls, looks set to become Italy's first woman prime minister.

The programme promises an overhaul of the welfare system, increasing free nursery schools and child benefits but scrapping the "citizens income" poverty relief scheme introduced in 2019.

This will be replaced by "more effective measures of social inclusion and job creation", the programme says, without elaborating.

It envisages a reform of Italy's constitution to introduce the direct election of the president, replacing the current system in which the head of state is elected by parliament.

This is a long-standing centre-right proposal and will require a referendum unless the bloc wins a two-thirds majority in parliament.

On foreign policy, the conservative bloc pledges its "full adherence to the process of European integration," and to "respect the commitments made to NATO," including increased defence spending.

The parties say they will back Ukraine in its resistance against Russia's invasion while "supporting all diplomatic initiatives aimed at resolving the conflict."

In past years the League and Brothers of Italy have both said Italy should quit the euro currency, while Salvini and Berlusconi have often expressed their admiration for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
