No Rich Pricks Please, We Are Socialists

The Labour Party are presiding over an apparently dysfunctional immigration service. Except that their recent actions, where bureaucratic stupidity seems to be the new "law of common sense" also mirrors Labour rhetoric.

"We don't want rich pricks here. Specifically, we don't want rich, white, hard working pricks here."

Quite keen to pack them off home, but probably not so keen on refunding the money invested to date.
