"Mr Philp appeared to suggest the scale of the problem surprised those in the Johnson government."
I assume that the contempt for Civil Servants (or The Blob as they called it) meant that advice to this effect which would normally have been offered, was swept aside by Johnson and his lackeys.
It’s high time we had an “honest Bob Jenrick” type nickname for Chris Philp to celebrate his special vacuous style of soulless, party-line drivel. Cardboard Chris? Placeholder Philp? Copy-Paste Chris?
Atrocious reporting by Sky News insinuating that the Conservative Government lied to the public and had no plan for the consequences of their actions. What’s will they cook up next? That Farage is a Russian Asset…?
😉
Did we need a leaked recording to confirm this. We left the Dublin convention when we left the EU and no replacement was put in place. It was as plain as the nose on your face the Tories had no plan...for any aspect of Brexit.
Please talk about this today, This. This was the lie upon lies, we've been saying it for years and got told to sit down, best bit is nobody cares 😂 the frustration 😂
Chris Philp, no longer even a useful idiot.
It should be embarrassing that people like him were/are politicians, but post Brexit, this is what the bottom of the barrel looks like.
Are they referring to the
‘Dublin Convention’
Which permitted U.K. to return immigrants to first safe country they entered.
U.K. before Brexit returned 40,000 this way.
Since Brexit ZERO.
All Tories can F.O now. They can take Reform (UKIP) with them. Lying bunch of 2 faced scumbags. Labour aren’t shaping up much better right now either. 🤬
To a point I think that’s fair. The Tories 14 years in power devastated the UK. However, Labour going after the elderly, the disabled & now the immigrants isn’t good at all. That is pure Tory & Reform.
I dont disagree totally. Going after the Winter Heating Allowance was messaged terribly. A pensioner on £50k a year doesnt need it - threshold and messaging wrong, idea not wrong. But their communications are horrific, another Alistair Cambell is needed.
Again to a point I agree. Messaging could be an issue. If it is, they should shout out to the public exactly what they’re doing. They aren’t though. KS & his cabinet are intelligent people, they must know the publics anger on these issues. If they need an ‘AC’ person, why aren’t they there, in post?
Whilst I accept that being Shadow Home Secretary does make the ridiculous man a top Tory, I can’t help laughing whenever I hear Philp described as a “Top Tory”
He does come across as a chap who's not keen on honesty or integrity... a good representation of the tory party since 2019.
And he's my mp...@notwinning.
I follow politics closely. I've never heard of this guy.
This is like a cheap soap opera, they just bring in a character and tell us he did that thing 5 years ago that we've been trying to figure out for 5 years.
This is poor writing, I don't feel like watching any more.
His job title isn't the point. It's this endless parade of blue suits and contrived plot twists. I have compassion fatigue.
Why don't just we vote for one guy and he runs everything through his social media account, then I can just block that account and be done with the whole circus.
As if he was the only one, but hey, must be worth being a plasticine fall guy to try and get a peerage or someone’s got dirty kompromat on him. These people never let anything leak they don’t want to.

Does this potentially open up the door to EU conversations? “The Tories betrayed when they lied about this bringing down immigration, let’s rejoin the EU to reclaim our borders”
“Chris Philp, now shadow home secretary, said Britain's exit from the EU - and end of UK participation in the Dublin agreement which governs EU-wide asylum claims - meant they realised they "can't any longer rely on sending people back to the place where they first claimed asylum".”
Everybody paying attention knew it. It was highlighted many times but dismissed as part of "project fear" (a term that has been retired for some reason)...
Comments
This was an obvious consequence and it was clear all along that British exceptionalism wouldn’t cut it.
What I find irritating is that we seem to need “leaks” like this to be certain that they understood the consequences of their policies.
We should be at ‘throw them in jail for deliberately lying and screwing the country’.
Who is keeping a centralised list of all the exposed RUK nutters that are being publicly identified?
Don't assume somebody else is doing this, they will be appearing at a rapid rate.
I assume that the contempt for Civil Servants (or The Blob as they called it) meant that advice to this effect which would normally have been offered, was swept aside by Johnson and his lackeys.
Chris Philp is an unrepentant moron whose foot is in his mouth 50% of the time it opens.
However, Boris Johnson is also as useless as a discarded bris, so anything that shows him up is ok by me.

#BrexitIsTreason
He’s nothing more than another sex-case awaiting its unearthing.
Who knew 🤬🤬
… Apart from all of us.

WAS POLICE & CRIME MINISTER UNDER @RishiSunak AND ALLOWED SUNAK AND AKSHATA TO ROB OUR TREASURY !
PLUTO WAS associated with companies that dissolved while owing hundreds of thousands to HM Revenue & Customs?
Meanwhile this lot
When governments lie to the people, it’s politics.

I've been banging on about Dublin III since before we left
But Brexiteers aren't interested in facts. Never were. Probably never will be...

There was no plan. They winged it.

A liar for hire. No lie too big. No position too indefensible. No denial too risible.
Famously called out as a liar by Mick Lynch on Newsnight

The media knew all this of course, but decided to play along with government lies.
Same on immigration in general and Israel.

Though the timing of this leak is very convinent with next weeks summit. Return to the agreement in exchange for liberty of motion?
All of my tomorrows are lousy cause of you
If I knew about Dublin III - which I did waaaay before we left the EU - he, as Immigration Minister, bloody well did too
Brexiteers lied through their teeth to get us out of the EU and haven't stopped since
In their new guise as Reform UK they're STILL doing it!
Aware of this from cursory perspective for years yet little been done on interigating this.
Add to this a PM that revelled in slagging off the French - any wonder a mess?
Better late than never
#ThoseBastards
They are not alone however, farage knew & preyed for it, he knew it was a powerful weapon that EU membership controlled for us!
I’m so angry right now 🤬
Fcuk him, fcuk them and fcuk everyone who supported this shenanigan #Brexit! #AndBreath 😮💨
Got the public to pick up the tab for his bankruptcies in Croydon.
But Brexiteers aren't interested in anything that doesn't affirm their twisted world view
