    Look if you’ve got people fleeing war and poverty via small boat channel crossings the only effective deterrent to disuade those making the crossing for a chance at a much better life for them and their children will be shooting the small boats.

    Needless to say, that’d be a horrific crime against humanity.

    So how about actually having grown-up conversations with the EU about how to tackle migration and fix the broken legal immigration system.

      They have already been offered a solution which they don’t want to take because they like to use the “immigration problem” as political red meat to throw at their idiot supporters, who by now are the only people who continue to support them.

      They are literally consulting with the US republicans on how to run a political campaign, so we’re not getting honesty or integrity here.

        No they are fleeing war and poverty and then they go to France but obviously they don’t want to stay there because who would want to live in France?

        If you think the British are racist you’ve not seen anything yet.
