s'alright, you don't fret either. Most are refused leave to stay.

Not correct and the vast majority of those that are do not get removed thanks to lawyers and the Human Rights Act

Are you sure you are correct there?

One thing is virtually certain. The numbers escaping various problems in the future will be vastly more.

We cannot allow our society to be destroyed as a result.

These people come to the UK because their 2nd language is more likely to be English, they have relatives already there and/or the benefits system is far easier to enter than that of France or many other European countries. There are two border checks in Calais, one by the French immigration authorities and the other by their British equivalents. The UK leaving the EU will make zero difference to this, in fact it will encourage more to attempt to cross as after the UK leaves there will only be French immigration in Calais. The UK immigration checks will be moved to and only be made on entering the UK in Folkestone. Once in Folkestone, these people will remain in the UK as inevitably they won't carry any papers with them and so can't be 'returned' to their originating country as that will not be known.

You've changed your tune. Normally you are telling us what a Utopia the other EU countries are, so superior to backward looking Britain, but now we are apparently very attractive to people - you can't have your croissant and eat it.

I'm sure Jeremy Corbyn will be dashing over with Diane Abbott on their bike to make sure none of them got splinter moving those logs.
I wonder if Diane will tweet this as an 'incident' or a 'terror attack'.

Change the record.

Er, no, That's how you would like to portray people with a different opinion to yourself. As for other EU countries, at least they have better and stricter social systems as proven by these people who are desperate to get to the UK. They would stay in France if they could or any other EU country but their systems don't allow that for the majority. In doing that, many European countries have health systems and infrastructure that the UK can only dream about. Go and speak to the hundreds of thousands of Brits in Spain and France and ask them about the health systems over there. I'm sure they will not want to return to the UK and have to use the NHS. Germany has a huge surplus of hospital beds and yet they make a huge trade surplus every year, can't be bad can it?

Show me where I have called the EU a 'Utopia' or are you falsifying what people have commented yet again to try and support your very flimsy opinions?

What is stopping them staying in the Utopian countries?
Your posts are a constant diatribe against Britain and a recommendation of all other EU countries.

Don't fret. Your access to viagara is not under threat. The vast majority of those applying for asylum in the UK are fleeing conflict and
persecution
but less than 2% of refugees have made it to the UK as they mostly go to other countries in Asia and Africa


If they were genuinely fleeing from persecution then why not then just claim asylum where they are - in France. After all, they are now safe from what they were meant to be fleeing from.
With respect Kermit - your thinking shows massive naivety.

Someone had died and the far right on the HoL are using it for political point scoring. Isn't this exactly what they were accusing nickgusset of on other threads?

The EU and its freedom of movement and single currency has been great to europalace. Unfortunately for people banging their nut against a brick wall a few times a day, he doesn't appreciate that it may not work for plenty of others.

Small businesses, low paid workers, tradesmen or certain trades, untrained young people vs experienced low cost foreign labour, and plenty more if we do t break the cycle of cheap imported labour at some point.

Just let him have his rants.

They have just killed someone. I am not interested in their language preferences. I want people to be safe in Europe. There needs to be much tougher action to deal with the situation.

So we can't highlight the insane situation regarding migrants? We should brush it under the carpet?
