The president keeps using the word “trillions,” but I don’t think it means what he thinks it means.

China sends coast guard to Senkaku islands amid row with Japan
Activity around Japanese-held islands, also claimed by China, comes after PM Sanae Takaichi said Japan might respond militarily to an invasion of Taiwan
China has sent its coast guard through the waters of the Senkaku islands and military drones past outlying Japanese territory as Beijing ramps up tensions over the Japanese prime minister’s remarks on Taiwan.
On Sunday the Chinese coast guard said its ships made a “rights enforcement patrol” through the waters of the Senkaku, which are administered by Japan but also claimed by China as the Diaoyu islands. Continue reading...

Here's the thing, removing permanent settlement is utterly counterproductive, as well as cruel. As @t0nyyates.bsky.social points out, most people seeking asylum don't know the asylum policies of countries they seek it in, so it isn't in any way a "deterrent". 1/3
It will reduce the effort refugees make to integrate, something that the racists in Labour and elsewhere claim to worry about. As asylum experts point out, grasp of local policies is often not great so it probably won't reduce the flow of asylum seekers, which is presumably the hope.
