If Nigel Farage were
ever to become UK Prime Minister and implement his policy of reversing the
residency rights of just about anyone who had migrated to the UK in the past,
what would happen to any assets which those migrants had accumulated? I mean,
just supposing for a minute that you were a French
politician who had found £885,000 down the back of the sofa to buy a house so that
your boyfriend could claim to live somewhere that he rarely visited, what would
happen to the house if you were forced to return to France so that your
boyfriend could implement a wild promise
he had made whilst campaigning?
Maybe Farage’s
policy has some unstated loopholes, such as excluding French people in
possession of valuable homes, although nothing he’s said so far implies any
great willingness to make exceptions; he’s even ready to split families as part
of his plan, so getting married and having kids doesn't work either. Maybe the assets of those expelled would simply pass to any
convenient partner who was allowed to remain. That would make it quite a
cunning plan – Farage would end up with a house in his constituency after all,
and (unless he was the one who happened to lose £885,000 down the back of the
sofa) he’d have got it for nothing.
