ย ๐ก๐Rachel Millward apparently wants Britain to open its arms wideโฆ just not wide enough to reach her own postcode. According to viral claims, she was all aboard the compassion cruiseโchampioning safe crossings and dignified placements for asylum seekersโuntil the paperwork landed in her own backyard. Suddenly, the open-hearted activist became the gatekeeper of the gated garden party. ๐ฅด
๐ โRefugees Welcome!โ (Just Not Here, Darlingโฆ)
Ah yes, the classic case of Not In My Cotswolds. For someone who allegedly pushed for humane solutions, Rachelโs about-face when 600 asylum seekers were assigned to her village is Olympic-level gymnastics in moral flexibility. One moment itโs all โwe must do better,โ and the next itโs โhow dare they step foot near my artisan cheese shop.โ ๐ง
Letโs play a quick game of โSpot the Hypocriteโ:
- ๐ข Publicly supports refugee resettlement
- ๐ข Says we must be โkind and openโ
- ๐ด Starts a campaign to stop refugees coming specifically to her village
You canโt make this up. Itโs like fighting for climate change action, then booking a private jet to complain about wind turbines ruining your view.
Itโs not just hypocrisyโitโs premium-grade, solar-powered, organic NIMBYism. ๐ท๏ธ
Not In My Back Yard, but definitely yours. Preferably a poorer, less Instagrammable yours.
If weโre assigning refugees based on how loud someone yells โdiversity,โ perhaps Rachelโs village should have gone first on the list. ๐งญ
๐คฏย Challengesย ๐คฏ
Why do so many self-declared do-gooders default to โNope!โ when itโs their slice of paradise on the line? Is this the new activismโoutsourcing empathy until it hits the property line? Dig into this double-standard, call it out, or defend it (if you dare). Letโs hear your spicy takes in the blog comments, not just on Facebook. ๐ฅ๐ง
Does this remind you of Crowborough?
