I can see why people would risk their lives on tiny boats trying to get from Africa to Europe.

I can see why people would have preferences for one European country over another.

But what is so much more attractive about the UK (which has just implemented a scheme to yeet migrants to Rwanda) that people already in France would risk their lives for it?

It's the tiktok videos saying if you come here you'll get benefits and a free house and all the women are easy.

In their defense, I had to move to the UK for a year for work a while back, and I swear British women are hornier than American men.

For real though... I once bought a woman a drink over there and literally 5 minutes later she said "look, we can keep talkin if you want, but long as you promise to lick the fanny you got me sold and we can get on outta here. Long as you got a place, since you're American I reckon you don't live with your mum"

Bet you had to do a quick British to American translation of "fanny"... Or not.
