There is a requirement for the first safe country in which they arrive to hear their asylum claim
I don't care who they are or where they come from, we cannot afford to shelter them. They come half way round the world and end up here: WHY?
Why, every time someone like me - who has no colour prejudice and know there are genuine cases, says anything about them not coming here, people like you accuse us of racial discrimination? Is that how they get here, by preying on people like you to prey on people like us?
Please, as you seem to have intimate knowledge if ILLEGAL immigrants, tell us how you think we can feed, clothe and house them when we cannot do the same for British nationals?
They are required to register in the first country in Europe, because Europe comes before Britain. Why don't they seek asylum there? Why Britain? You only have to look on a map to see how small we are. There have been people on housing waiting lists for years, single parent families having to go from house to house, bed and breakfast, sofa sailing, people who are unable to put their roots down anywhere.
Have the boat immigrants who leave from French beaches been processed before they - those still alive that it - come to our shores?
The French should know who they are and where they come from, when they enter France. Do they tell us? What about the people who buy the boats? Has anyone checked up on where the thousands of life jackets are made, and who buys them?
If registration is required before they come here, why is it such a surprise when they turn up?
If you know so much about it, please tell me why they want to come to overcrowded Britain?
British nationals, whatever their colour or creed are taxpayers, don't want any more immigrants either. British nationals come in every colour and creed, They work hard, try to bring up their children, then have to battle with the cost of living, and to accommodate and feed people who should not come here?
How many British nationals can rustle up thousands to pay for a dodgy boat ticket? Why don't the immigrants buy an air or ferry ticket instead, register on the plane, or ship? It is surely cheaper?
Will we have to have wind farms all along the coast to deter them?
