Could’ve spent all that money on housing, the NHS, education, transport, or a bunch of other things. Signaling “fuck the refugees” was more important than “improve the country”.
Sadly refugees and immigrants are often the scapegoats in western hegemonic colonialist countries and as such they need to paradoxically keep them around but also ‘send them back’.
I completely agree though, they really need to stop wasting money like this.

They have. The scheme is scrapped.
Sure, for now, but they do waste it in a myriad of ways. I’m sure this kind of thing will pop up again.
