There's only two options on asylum seekers:
1. Go it alone, and deal with each and every one that arrives on your shores and airports
2. Share the "burden" with your neighbours
The EU appears to be trying out the shared burden model.
Uk needs to decide what it wants to do. "Blame the eu" won't do much.

Varadkar was keen as well but he jumped before…

Has it ever been made clear as to exactly why the controlled inward immigration exploded since brexit?
If they all go through the approvals process, why so many, so quickly?

Post Brexit Britain is a more attractive proposition than the stshow unfolding in the soon to be far right dominated EU.If they all go through the approvals process, why so many, so quickly?

Labour didn't win, the Tories lost, and they lost because of reform, which only exists because of ukip & brexit.

The Tories promised the electorate Health, Wealth, Control of Immigration, and delivered on none of them (plus many other areas). The electorate could see the Tories were taking their votes for granted so many people lent their votes elsewhere at this election. If Labour also don't start to deliver on these areas they will lose their majority in 2029!

Brexit brought the loons into government led by a buffoon surrounded by sycophants
Aside from the fact Trumps VP pick said the UK is the "first Islamist country with nuclear weapons" (I guess he never heard of Pakistan)...
...A Trump / Vance combo is bad news for closer UK / US trade. As they will likely continue to advocate an America First policy. Who should the UK try to cozy up with for EU replacement trade deals now?
We are entering a new period of global instability, and alienating the EU, our closest trading partners and one of the largest trading blocs in the World, would be bad idea. I'd hope Labour will be more pragmatic about a new UK/EU than the likes of the Conservatives and other small, but vocal, political parties.
