 Pressure Valve moment, things are going poorly so they need to get support by saying shit people want to hear. They'll maybe even have a drawn out legislative battle to feign trying to get something done, but then it'll die in some sort of committee or receive 0 funding and thatll be that.

 They will talk how reducing illegal immigration by 10% and increasing legal immigration by 30% is a colossal victory for gop, and how everyone should be happy, because they are not racist.

 I mean even beyond the minutia of rates on whatever, these people have the power to stop/change whatever they want. The legislative bodies of most countries these days are just a scapegoat for stagnation and corruption; if the US President or UK Chap in Chief wants to stop something, he can say to stop it and his appointed cabinet will make it so. They dont cause they dont want to either for money from jews, because they are jews, or they are entirely morally bankrupt and just want to relish in degenerate behavior.
