Broken Promises: Britain's Border Control Nine Years After Brexit

Britain's Border Control: From 'Take Back Control' to Lost Control? A nine-year Brexit promise comparison. In 2016, then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson famously pledged to "take back control" of Britain's borders. Fast forward to 2025, and a stark contrast emerges. In a recent interview, John Healy, a political commentator, asserted that Britain has "lost control of its borders" since Brexit. This statement directly contradicts Johnson's earlier promise. Healy pointed to the "chaos" within the asylum system and "record levels of immigration" as evidence of this failure. Healy's claim is supported by recent reports indicating increased strain on the UK's immigration infrastructure. The video's juxtaposition of these two statements serves as a powerful illustration of the gap between political promises and the realities of policy implementation. The contrast raises questions about the effectiveness of Brexit and the long-term consequences of unfulfilled political pledges. The situation highlights the ongoing debate surrounding immigration policy and its impact on the UK.
