The xenophobic and racist motto of "England for the English" has been cubed by the British Home Office, by erasing Mickey Mouse, Tom and Jerry, Baloo the bear and other cartoon characters from the walls of the reception of the reception center for unaccompanied minors in Dover, for understanding that it sent a message "too welcoming and hospitable" for children who arrive in the country by boat without their parents, it would make them feel "excessively comfortable" and think that everything here is hahaha. When it comes to "creating the most hostile climate possible for illegal aliens."
The definitive proof that the current UK government has run out of steam is that not only the Labor opposition (logical), human rights groups (logical too) have criticized the bizarre decision, but even the far-right politician Nigel Farage , one of the architects of Brexit and who has made the fight against immigration his leit motif: “Although it is understandable that those who cross the English Channel in inflatable boats are not accommodated in four-star hotels, erasing from the wall of the reception center the mural with the characters of Walt Disney and Hanna Barbera is excessively cruel, after all the children who request asylum are pawns in the game of criminal gangs that traffic immigrants”.
Four stars, nothing at all. And neither three, nor two. In any case, a seedy pension with bars, barbed wire, fences and security cameras. A recent inspection of the Kent Intake Unit (KIU) in Dover, carried out not by an NGO but by the head of Her Majesty's Prisons Department, has found that it has “no windows, the beds are not made properly, the rooms are dirty because during the day there are no cleaning staff, the toilets and bathrooms are disgusting, the children lack children's reading books and the selection of toys is minimal”. Apart from that, everything is fine, "it is in good condition, it is warm and very bright (with artificial light)".
Too warm, decided the Secretary of State for Immigration, Robert Jenrick, the same one who fell as minister after starring in a conflict of interest scandal, by fast-tracking an urban planning license for the construction of 1,500 apartments on the Island of Los Perros, one of the poorest neighborhoods in London, so that a patron of the Conservative Party could save 50 million euros from a municipal tax that was about to come into force.
But one thing is the treatment of a patron and another is the minors who arrive by boat on the coast of Kent, without father, mother, or any relative, and who, in the opinion of the British Government, do not deserve a residence permit. , but not even the right to a smile seeing universal cartoon characters on the walls of the reception of the reception center. It is not that they are inspired by Mickey Mouse, prototype, with his diminutive stature and his whistle voice, of the one who has everything against him and is the favorite to lose, in sports and in life. When the objective is for those who have to win, “those at home”, to always win, there are no surprises.
“The idea that erasing cartoon characters will deter immigrants from crossing the channel by boat is absurd. We are talking about nine year olds! It is a clear sign of a chaotic government in the throes of crisis, whose own failures have led it to adopt cruel and mean-spirited language and policies.” But while the administration, with one hand, wants to make life miserable for asylum seekers and send them to Rwanda, with the other, it opened the doors last year to an all-time high of 660,000 foreigners to pay tuition fees at luxury universities. like Oxford and Cambridge, work in high-tech companies or do the jobs that natives don't want. Without it, the country's economy would completely collapse.
According to the Home Office, the important thing is that the Kent reception center has spacious interrogation rooms, places to pray and impeccable security measures, so that no one escapes. Cartoon characters abound. He could have substituted Mickey Mouse for witches, Cruella de Vil or Cinderella's stepmother, but it would have been too expensive. He has limited himself to painting the walls a mortuary gray.
