French farce
NEXT week Britain will roll out the red carpet for the State visit of French President Emmanuel Macron.
Someone should give him a tour of our asylum hotels instead.

After all, Macron’s done precious little for the £480million we handed him to stop the boats.
A record 20,000 have now crossed the Channel illegally in 2025 and been taken straight to free accommodation.
Clearly, it’s not just the migrants taking British taxpayers for a ride.
Yesterday, French cops gave a demonstration of their expensive drones, cars and a beach buggy — all of which we helped pay for.
Presumably their most-used bit of kit is new binoculars used by the gendarmes to make sure migrants are firmly on their way to Dover.
Scrapping the Rwanda scheme has been Labour’s biggest act of self-harm.
Ministers are left making lame claims about smashing the people-smuggling gangs, while handing migrants millions more in legal aid to fight removal.
Desperate Britain is now considering a “one-in-one-out” returns agreement.
In theory, the French set up asylum processing hubs and for every migrant with a genuine claim that they forward to Britain, we send an illegal back.
But given their uselessness, how many will the French actually process?
Migrants will keep chancing their luck until they know for a fact they will definitely be deported.
Leaving the UK once again totally reliant on our unreliable neighbours.
Lost control
WHAT total chaos. Normally, a Government with a huge majority would mark its first year in office by trumpeting a raft of great achievements.
Sir Keir Starmer’s Number Ten has chosen to blast itself in both feet.
Last week’s U-turn to try to salvage his flagship benefits bill was bad enough.
Last night’s second capitulation to Labour rebels renders it almost meaningless.
No savings worthy of the name. No reform. No clue.
We can now look forward to a second year in which Labour jacks up our taxes to fill the financial black hole.
Still, at least the Prime Minister’s Left-wing MPs will be happy.
They look like the ones in control now.
Cost of Red Ed
BEFORE the Election Ed Miliband promised voters his Net Zero policies would cut customers’ energy bills by £300.
In fact bills will go UP by a cumulative £104 by 2031 thanks to a massive upgrade of the network and green taxes.
His uselessness would almost be considered funny.
If it wasn’t costing hard-up families yet another fortune.
