U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak warned illegal immigrants entering the country that they would be deported and "will not be able to stay" on Sunday.

Sunak made the vow in a Sunday interview as the U.K. faces a steady flow of migrants crossing its borders from Europe. Sunak's government is expected to push legislation cracking down on illegal immigration later this week, with a special emphasis on illegal immigrants arriving in boats across the English Channel.

"Make no mistake, if you come here illegally, you will not be able to stay," Sunak told U.K. media.

When Jacinda Ardern resigned as prime minister of New Zealand last month, she framed her decision in terms of natural human limitations. Politicians “give all that we can, for as long as we can, and then it’s time,” she said. Similarly, in stepping down as leader last week, Scotland’s first minister, Nicola Sturgeon, said she could no longer deliver everything her job “demands and deserves.”

It’s a nice idea: Politicians growing old gracefully, respecting the seasons of one’s career. Still, no amount of positive spin can gloss over a legacy mired in failure.

Nicola Sturgeon quit as Scottish first minister on Wednesday, saying her dominance over her party and the country was no longer the asset it once was in the fight for an independent Scotland.

The 52-year-old, who has been first minister since 2014, also said she would stand down as leader of the ruling Scottish National Party (SNP), saying a fresh face would have a better chance of reaching across the political divide, and that she had become too divisive - and too tired - to lead that fight any more.

She will stay in place until a successor is found.

The United Kingdom's longest-lasting patch of snow, located in a remote mountain range in the Scottish Highlands, has melted away for only the eighth time in 300 years, experts have confirmed.

President Trump waved at dozens of protesters Saturday while golfing at his club in Scotland, while thousands of demonstrators marched against him in the Scottish city of Edinburgh.

U.S. President Donald Trump played golf on Saturday at his course on the western coast of Scotland ahead of a summit with Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin that could be overshadowed by accusations that Russians meddled in the U.S. 2016 election.

Thousands of people have protested on the streets in Edinburgh against Donald Trump’s visit to the UK as the US president played golf at his Turnberry resort, on the west coast of Scotland.

Liz Quinn’s longtime dream of a fully independent Scotland was shattered early Friday after Scots voted overwhelmingly to stay within the United Kingdom.

Thursday’s Scottish referendum was interesting not just for what it said about Britain, but also for what it said about the state of political forecasting. I’m calling it a loss not only for the pro-independence movement — the “No” campaign won 55.3 percent of the vote — but also for the pollsters.
