Number crunching from Private Eye
@CheRosach A Disney cruise for a whole year sounds like cruel and unusual punishment ...
@CheRosach
There seems to be an attitude of "We must punish them". The press was upset that there may be functioning TVs on the barge. A minister ordered a colourful wall painted over lest it may be pleasant for children. It stinks of unpleasant dehumanising.

@m0rjc @CheRosach It's the same attitude here in Ireland. Cram them into a disused hotel in the middle of nowhere and pay a private company to feed them as cheaply as possible. Can't work or move elsewhere. Make them suffer so they hopefully give up and go home.

Unless you're Ukrainian. Then you can get a job and integrate into our society. Can't have white people treated like those other people.

@CheRosach The sadism is one point, getting to lubricate your crony relations with eleventillions of tax money instead of improving educational, health and social services must be a pleasant side effect. And I am not convinced, diznay is not going to find ways to enshittify their services once they have their feet firmly past the door. This will be^w^w is just another business opportunity like privately run prisons.
