Jaeluni Asjil posted:Not sure what channel it is on (Yesterday - maybe?) but I have seen it quite recently (like in the last few weeks) and I don't have UKTV Gold. Yeah, Yesterday tends to show them in the evening. Watch Last of the Summer Wine and Porridge in the morning, afternoon and early evening on Gold (the same 2-3 episodes of each, repeated) and then watch different episodes at night on Yesterday. [Edit] Actually, that's not quite correct. The early evening Gold episodes are different, because they become the morning and afternoon episodes for the next day.

We need somewhere where I can watch vintage episodes of countdown with Carol ( ) and Richard (). For all the other crap I can just look at a looping gif of Del Boy falling through the bar, forever

All this talk of old sitcoms got me thinking about Open All Hours and how they did that revival Still Open All Hours where Granville (David Jason) had taken over the shop. I had no idea it had run for six seasons, I just thought it was a one-off 6-episode run. Was that any good?

I'll have you know that Rwanda has the UK as their third largest export partner after the UAE and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, so in exchange for some quantifiable number of atrocities Britain will get access to vital markets of food and live animals, fats and waxes, and non-edible chemical precursors. It's a shame that Leicester's first big meth lab incident turned out to be a bunch of nothing that was entirely made up to gently caress some people over, there could have been the start of a profitable export partnership there.

The dark humor bit is that they are claiming it's to stop human trafficking, but I can't think of a better gift to human traffickers than making it so that if you go to police you get sent to loving Rwanda. Well, it is one of way of lowering the number of reports I guess. E: TBH I'd rather get sent to St. Helen or Shetlands or something, at least then you're less likely to be randomly human-rights-crimed by the local security services.

The entire idea is you threaten the worst place you can get, so that people figure staying on the European mainland is preferable. Actually sending people to Rwanda will inevitably turn out a huge pounding British headache, if the Australian experience teaches us anything

Definitely. This is to appease the "immigrants get given a free four star hotel in Mayfair the moment they arrive" crowd, where the only thing they know about Rwanda is that they all genocide one another and there was that prison where they were doing cannibalism, which is the level of accommodation that these people believe is suitable. It's all vice signaling.

Also imo it probably isn't about the cost, it's about exciting new opportunities in grotesque human rights abuses, by outsourcing them to where fewer people are paying attention

Rwanda. 4700 miles away by air. They didn't want to feed your kids. But are willing to pay to move seekers 1/5th of the world away to be held out of the sight of cameras. Looking forward to the inquiry results in 2060 about the deaths and torture.

Getting Rwanda to accept refugees from Britain will be very expensive yes - per refugee the costs will certainly be much higher, and that's excluding the cost of finding another country willing to accept them from Rwanda when they're inevitably forced to resettle them again, if bringing them back to britane would be seen as encouraging criminals in the common political discourse. But nobody will argue for this stuff from what happens to the people directly affected, you have to claim that they're unfortunate and unwanted casualties from the super legitimate cause of dissuading people to come in the future Refugees are capable of being rational, so if crossing the channel means being sent to Rwanda, they won't be going cross the channel any more - for as long as the policy is upheld and consistently applied, which i imagine would be very tricky to do at all, let alone over time

But if I was an asylum seeker turned modern slavery victim I would think twice about coming forward, knowing there's a chance I'll be sent to Rwanda sooner or later depending on how the case goes. e: They are just completely taking the piss: Sky posted:'A really humane step forward': Minister defends plan to send some asylum seekers to Rwanda Sky posted:Asked whether children would be sent to Rwanda, Mr Hart told Sky News' Kay Burley: "The principle is no.

Keep in mind that these are one-way tickets, there's no expectation that anyone deemed "legitimate" will be brought back to the UK, rather that they'll be encouraged to make a new life in Rwanda.
