      > A police and crime commissioner (PCC) has urged the government to look into making asylum seekers wear electrotonic tags.

      > Sussex’s Katy Bourne, who suggested that any initiative should start with males, said tags would provide asylum seekers with „greater freedom“ to travel further from holding centres and „could be the first step in making it more feasible to get temporary jobs“.

      > The Conservative PCC added: „I have a New Year’s resolution for the Home Secretary – why not be bold and pilot tagging of the men due to arrive soon at Crowborough?

      Electronic tags when all of them already have a smartphone!?

      Even China would just ask to install a government app.

      ‘Any initiative should start with males’ oh ok that makes it fine then…

      Guarantee she’ll be one of those lamenting ‘identity politics’ as well.

      Just tie a balloon to their arm, then you can easily spot them wandering off.

      I don’t think tagging every asylum seeker is the best use of money . I feel this should not apply to those who enter the country and are truthful , show documentation and have a clean record 

      Don’t come into this country with id to prove yourself? Tagged , lie about certain things? Tagged , found documents are fake? Tagged  , criminal record? Tagged 

      This tagging system should be used for people considered a threat so unless the police are saying all of them are a threat i think it should be limited to those who are hiding thing , faking things or destorying documentation because that’s just shows they are willing to hide things and that cannot be trusted and I do think that would help both work as a deturant to arrive like that and hopefully as a deturant to do crime in those situations  . I just don’t think asylum seekers with a clean crime record and tell the truth and have all their documents that’s genuine should be thrown into this same boat

      PCC is an elected position, it’s quite possible she is no more qualified to have an opinion on this than you or I.

    7. Okay lets say it’s feasible, who’s gonna fund it and how are you going to make sure it’s not just a profiteering exercise?

      „Bourne said if people refused to wear a tag „it would be an indication that they are intending to abscond or are involved in unlawful activity““

      What in the fascist fuck is this?

      „meaning police will be looking for people with very little official ID or existing digital footprint in the UK“

      They’ll be looking for people who are absolutely guaranteed to have photo ID, which isn’t the case for millions of people born here.

    9. Perhaps we should put a big yellow star on every asylum seeker too, just to ensure we are able to easily identify them?

      There was a recent C4 documentary about the shambles of the current tagging system in the UK. 🙄

      Asylum seekers haven’t committed a crime so why are they being treated as such on arrival?

      If they are criminals, then they can be tagged as such under licence – the Home Office tags people already I believe.

      Look, whole prison blocks contain Foreign National Offenders, many of whom for no other reason than they came here illegally. Adding more criminality, surveillance, management and such, is a cost with little upside.
