In their recent attempt to Brexit from the rest of the world, they have contracted with Rwanda to take their refugees. The plane was loaded up with foreign-looking people, when a last minute appeal to the European Court of Human Rights ordered the plane grounded, because the people on the plane had not exhausted their appeals. Before the ruling, Boris publicly mentioned possibly exiting the human rights court, always a good look. But if people on the continent keep can saying you can't do human trafficking to keep the bloody foreigners off your island, what was the point of Brexit anyway?
And despite losing the confidence of ~40% of his own party in a vote (worse than Theresa May), Boris Johnson shambles on. Today his ethics advisor resigned. We'll see if the government even notices the difference.
In theory this could have warranted a new thread, but it all comes down to the same things as Brexit -- nationalism, fear of other countries forcing them to act like human beings, and scapegoating of immigrants and minorities. The Brits are at it again.
