British Home Secretary Suella Braverman has blasted the “pampered” and “out of touch” elites who lecture the public on migration while being protected from its impacts.
In a speech in Washington D.C. earlier this week, Braverman declared that multiculturalism has failed in the UK and elsewhere and argued that asylum laws should be tightened to prevent migrants from gaming the system, such as lying about being persecuted for being gay or a woman.
The speech saw left-wing millionaire celebrities express outrage, including pop singer Sir Elton John, who said that the Home Secretary’s comments ran the risk of “legitimising hate and violence, and the BBC’s highest-paid presenter, Gary Lineker, who commented: “She can’t possibly know that [migrants] are lying.”
Striking back in an interview with the Mail on Sunday, Braverman said: “What we are seeing here is out-of-touch pampered elites, lecturing us on how we should think about very, very serious issues affecting the majority of British people, such as illegal migration.
“These people don’t have to wait in a queue to see a GP, they can just go private. They don’t have to worry about trying to afford a car or buy a house. The vast majority of British people are directly affected by the unprecedented scale of illegal migration. My job is to think of them first ahead of a virtue-signalling, elitist view from Hollywood Central.”
Braverman, who is the daughter of Indian immigrants, said that she had no issue with “anyone flying in private jets or having villas around the world” but that they often do not understand the perspective of the public.
“What I have a problem with is these privileged people telling the... These pampered elites are trying to look compassionate and sound virtuous,” the Home Secretary said.

Chick may need some facial work, but she is NAILING IT on ‘migration’. Perhaps this strategy will work - have a couple of ‘migrants’ (Sunak and Braverman) finally put an end to what the British Leftists in the UK have done to trash their country.
Now if only our elites would be forced to suffer what the rest of us have to. But, who am I kidding? It’ll never happen, sadly.

Well said.
Bring us some of that here.
Better yet, send the invaders where ever home is for them.
The problem is not illegal vs. legal migration. The problem is too much migration.
And most migration/immigration into Britain is legal. That too needs to be ended.

I wouldn’t care if she was butt-crack ugly, we need more of this starting yesterday. Not a single R would have dared to utter those words.
Why don’t them assign a quota or migrants to take care of personally for each left wing billionaire.
