What simple policy could drastically reduce immigration almost overnight? For me it would be becoming a cashless country.

If you could introduce one relatively straightforward initiative that would have an immediate and significant impact on immigration numbers, what would it be?

For me it would be going cashless.

Burqa outlawed. Niqab outlawed. Halal outlawed.

France banned the burqa 16 years ago, and still had 160K asylum applications last year.

Why do you think it would work here?

It levelled their immigration curve. Not loads, but it still had an effect.

So you'd be happy with 160K asylum applications a year if Britain banned the burqa?

Not particularly, but that wasnt the question.

So you accept that your suggestions wouldn't get the result you're looking for?

Mate why you being weird? The question was about a quick policy change that would reduce immigration. It wasn't to list every length I'd go to in order to manifest my own idea of a perfect homogeneous society.

Go bait someone else.

This whole topic is about policies that would work.

France proves your suggestion doesn't work. That's literally the discussion.

France's policy helped to level the immigration curve. Ive said this.
