That'll Do Nicely?

I know that that is American Express rather than Visa, but it still works, because the United States is one of the 56 - fifty-six - countries and territories whose passport-holders may enter the United Kingdom and the Crown Dependencies without a visa and stay for six months.

This is not about the EU. Their nationals and some others can come here without visas and stay forever. The reasons are complicated, but that is not what this post is about.
 
No, this one is easy. Make it reciprocal. Your people can do that here, if our people can do it in your respective countries. No problem.
 
With effect from 1st January of this year, Omanis, Emiratis and Qataris, whose government in the last case funds IS, may obtain online an electronic free pass into this country.

That is open and public corruption by a party which knows and cares more about the global superclass than it does about our own national security.
 
It must be repealed.
 
I have my doubts about Yvette Cooper, who has some of the posturing authoritarianism of the New Labour years in the Home Affairs brief.

But this is her double chance: promise to make visa exemptions conditional upon reciprocity, and promise to abolish the very special treatment for those sponsored by three of the most repressive, and in at least one case terrorism-sponsoring, regimes on the face of the earth.
 
Bring these matters to a division of the House of Commons at the earliest opportunity.

Very preferably, bring them to a division on a proposed amendment with legislative effect.

  1. As UKIP says, this shows how the EU makes Britain's immigraiton policy racist.

    The only form of immigration this Government has reduced-and can reduce-is migration of dark-skinned people from the Middle East, and the third world.

    Even Argentine footballers signed by Manchester United (like Marco Rojo) have struggled to get past immigration checks.

    But white-skinned people from 27 other European countries-even Latvian wife-killers-get a free pass to come and live here as they please.

    Richard Littlejohn laughed at this hilarious double standard below.

    It's one of the absurd consequences of EU membership.

    1. Look up the list. We are talking about all parts of the world on these waivers. Do a little research occasionally. Richard Littlejohn? You are on the wrong site, darling.
