Did you just assume their genderLast 7 days nearly 850 men arrived illegally by boats - this figure is only for the ones detected so there might have been more
They like to be caught on the beaches by the authorities. Then they get taken immediately to a nice warm hotel or reception centre to be fed.Last 7 days nearly 850 men arrived illegally by boats - this figure is only for the ones detected so there might have been more

That'll deter any others from making the trip.They like to be caught on the beaches by the authorities. Then they get taken immediately to a nice warm hotel or reception centre to be fed.
It's 850 could be 8500 for all we know as they scatter and then play a game of hide and don't seek.Educated guess
YepIt's 850 could be 8500 for all we know as they scatter and then play a game of hide and don't seek.
Agree.There are no safe routes, don't you ask the question why , and is anyone surprised the boats continue? Saying stop the boats is a bit canuteish, anyyway keeps people from focusing on the shambles the rest of this country has become.
And anyone thinking Rwanda policy Will save the Day, that will deal with less 1/2 of the 850 quoted at the start of this thread.
Let them come I say just give them complete free them and it probably won't take them long to realise what a dump this country has become and want to leave again. Think about that car hits yet another pothole in the road
Even at peak times, there may be maybe 20,000 arriving by small boats.Last 7 days nearly 850 men arrived illegally by boats - this figure is only for the ones detected so there might have been more
And a fair guess too. I can't recall seeing a female in any of the news coverage & residents on the south coast always refer to 'males' when they're interviewed.Educated guess
It's the principle and also security issues it creates.It’s a drop in the ocean compared to the net immigration into the UK of 3200 a day within Government policy. If you are concerned about immigration, boat crossings are a political distraction that you and others have been duped into thinking is the real issue.
No, just a guess.Educated guess
ExactlyIt's the principle and also security issues it creates.
But yes legal immigration is a joke too, especially as they promised to get a grip of it, they lied.
Guess, educated guess, doesn’t matter.No, just a guess.
That’s the problem with this take on what’s going on.Even at peak times, there may be maybe 20,000 arriving by small boats.
You do know up to 750,000 arrive through other routes, with 300,000 emigrating.
Small boat numbers are a complete deflection dog whistle tactic.
Immigration could be massively reduced through tighter visa controls but too much money is made from the likes of students and short term working contracts.
Easy policy changes but ignored in favour of blaming a tiny proportion of the total immigrant volume. Catchphrase over meaningful difference.
It sure is.Watch this week's Panorama on iPlayer. Stopping the boats is a distraction (surprise surprise). 1.44 million visas in 12 months.

My son and daughter have worked self-employed in Dubai for 8 years.This country really is a bit of a sh1te hole nowadays.
We have a overcrowded, dirty and totally inefficient nation with many angry, ignorant, unhealthy residents.
Apart from the obvious money and free health and education there is little to attract anyone to this dump when comparing to many European countries, this is why we are struggling to fill skilled jobs and why we are getting all the dossers racking up on our shores from around the world.
Why do you want to keep them hereRwanda have said they'll take 200 for the money we've given them so far.
It would be an awful lot cheaper to keep them here.
Because we'd be a billion pounds better off.Why do you want to keep them here?
Hmmm, maybe you have a point. Charge them for accommodation and any services they use. What do you think, £250 a week fair.Because we'd be a billion pounds better off
Let them work and pay taxes. No problem.Hmmm, maybe you have a point. Charge them for accommodation and any services they use. What do you think, £250 a week fair.
A lot will work for Care homes and NHS, and after a recent stay in hospital, I think the majority work hard and contribute.It's the principle and also security issues it creates.

That's not the point, it was a manifesto pledge which was not only a complete lie, but hone totally the other way.A lot will work for Care homes and NHS, and after a recent stay in hospital, I think the majority work hard and contribute.
Shock, horror politicians not being truthful. All parties have let the country down, it is not just a Tory trait.That's not the point, it was a manifesto pledge which was not only a complete lie, but hone totally the other way.
They've been in power a long time now and no improvement, it's only got far bigger the number.Shock, horror politicians not being truthful. All parties have let the country down, it is not just a Tory trait.
They plan for 5year only, most infrastructure and critical services the time frame is far longer, so we end up with Victoria sewers not being able to cope. Wind farms not added to national grid, flood defenses. Inadequate etc and NHS grinding to a halt due mainly to bed blocking as our population ages.
