In this clip from BBC Politics Live, I explain why the UK should not implement a visa scheme for Gaza refugees. Firstly, polling shows that most British people do not support this initiative. I believe in the principle of popular sovereignty, and it’s clear that the public does not feel a moral obligation to solve every refugee crisis around the world. After taking in refugees from Hong Kong, Ukraine, and Afghanistan, it’s time to address our own challenges.
Furthermore, security services have highlighted significant risks. High levels of support for Hamas among Gazans raise serious concerns about compatibility with British values and safety. Denmark's experience with Palestinian refugees serves as a cautionary tale, showing potential issues with integration and security.
