Anyone Tempted To Swallow This ‘New Tough Line’ From The Immigration Minister...

...should ask themselves one thing: why is he referring to them as ‘migrants’ and not what they really are?
“We shouldn’t need to be putting people up in four-star hotels,” said Jenrick, adding that the barge in Dorset had been used for oil and gas workers, and citing the use of similar vessels for Ukrainian refugees in Glasgow and Edinburgh.
“If it’s good enough for all those people, then it should be good enough for the migrants,” he said. “And we accept it is.”

They aren't 'migrants'; when they come ashore in small boats from a safe country having destroyed their IDs, they are illegal immigrants

And if someone in your position won't admit that, why should we pay any attention to what you claim?

They are not even illegal immigrants. People escaping from terror tend to bring their families with them. Invaders tend to leave them behind. Let's call them what they really are.

I think that might be a little strong for the media! But you're not wrong.
