Re: Britain outside the EU
 
I'm not disputing they do that, but all countries dealing with refugees and asylum claims will have the same problem.

It's not unique to those coming to the UK.

They come here because they get access to our welfare state.

Simple solution to slow it all down is to give them nothing. Do not house them do not feed them and do not give them money. The French are more than happy to let them try and get across to us. Not their problem any more is it? Turn them back or pick them up and dump them back on the French beaches and stop taking crap from them

This tragedy ultimately imo is the Frech Governments and their policy of turning a blind eyes fault

Most of you here are far too liberal and likely hate Farage but he has been posting videos and reports proving the French complicity in all this for months

Evidence showing the French escorting them into British waters. Irrefutable

I never said it was unique to the UK. But this discussion is about the UK and this sub-discussion is the illegal immigration by people who destroy their documents so that they cannot be deported.

This has to be stopped. The EU and UK need to do something drastic before they come in their multi-millions and change, eventually, our culture and society.

Geopolitics (Russia, Belarus, Turkey) are the buggeration factors here and, frankly, it's not going to be stopped without deep and purposeful cooperation between the EU and the UK. Greece, Malta and Italy have coastal weaknesses like the UK has. So even if land border walls are built, Greece, Malta and Italy will need enforcement support from all parties seeking to avoid this immigration.

... if only. We can't leave them to fend for themselves like the French do; crime and violence will result. The problem is currently intractable because the EU and UK can't meaningfully engage on this.

Macron says it's our fault because of the 'pull factor'; Patel says it's the EU's fault because they can't control their borders.

Farage is a great man (I would only vote for him if stood for the Conservatives).

Re: Britain outside the EU
 
This whole illegal migrants in boats "crisis" is pure deflection and is designed to pander to the prejudices of the xenophobic, Brexit voting minority and so remove the focus from the far more important problems we face at the moment. We, as a country, take fewer asylum seekers per capita than our European neighbours so have little grounds to complain.

In fact, the deflection also stosp people asking why after 11 years in power, we see:

Record migrants cross Channel but numbers are dwarfed by unauthorised people in UK

Quote:

Sky News has analysed figures on irregular migrants and found those who overstay their visas make up the highest proportion - many more than people arriving on boats.
This all reminds me of this meme:

Re: Britain outside the EU
 
It is outrageous that the French are allowing this to happen. It is also outrageous that the British Press is not all over this. I would not expect the BBC to but other independent news outlets should be damning the French. The World shoudl be damning the French. They are breaking international law yet our Governement has always been to weak to do anything about it

Yes we need a strong leader that takes no crap. We have not seen one since Thatcher ( although I do not and never did support what she did but she took no crap ) and yes Farage would be that kind of leader

Do you have a source for this?

Ianch is still living the Brexit referendum. A hopeless position.

He talks of deflection from other political issues and that is pure BS. Illegal immigration is an issue in its own right with huge long term implications for society (the children and the grandchildren, etc); same goes for those who overstay their visas, a deflection that he has introduced.

Don't you start, Andrew!

Those migrants come here because the taxpayer will take care of them for quite some while. You don't need a source for that - but if did need one, the French government has said nearly as much in referring to the "pull factor".

Oh come one seriously?

They get to France and then risk their lives to come here. Why?

Here is what an asylum seeker gets

"You’ll be given somewhere to live if you need it. This could be in a flat, house, hostel or bed and breakfast.

You cannot choose where you live. It’s unlikely you’ll get to live in London or south-east England."

"Cash support
You’ll get 」39.63 for each person in your household. This will help you pay for things you need like food, clothing and toiletries.

Your allowance will be loaded onto a debit card (ASPEN card) each week. You’ll be able to use the card to get cash from a cash machine.

If you’ve been refused asylum
You’ll be given:

somewhere to live
」39.63 per person on a payment card for food, clothing and toiletries
You will not be given:

the payment card if you do not take the offer of somewhere to live
any money"

"Maternity payment
You can apply for a one-off 」300 maternity payment if your baby is due in 8 weeks or less, or if your baby is under 6 weeks old.

If you’ve been refused asylum
You can apply for a one-off 」250 maternity payment if your baby is due in 8 weeks or less, or if your baby is under 6 weeks old."

"Healthcare
You may get free National Health Service (NHS) healthcare, such as to see a doctor or get hospital treatment.

You’ll also get:

free prescriptions for medicine
free dental care for your teeth
free eyesight tests
help paying for glasses"

https://www.gov.uk/asylum-support/what-youll-get

Good enough for you ????

If they can get housed so easily why do we have homeless people born here, on our streets???

Thatcher had a political and economic philosophy and took a strategic approach to making the system work for her. Farage is more of a populist who works best outside the system. But at times he falls into the trap of overplaying to the populist crowd at the expense of accuracy.

Do people feel like a winner, much changed for them at all as a result of winning, promises were made that can't be kept so rather than be held accountable it might be better to have a distraction like asylum seekers, mean French men or the nasty EU punishing us

First point. Prudent question and I refer to my answer on certain asylum seeker statistics. Cash in hand work is easier to find for those who are not asylum seekers so they get rid of ID come here and work on the side hidden and unknown

When Brexit was voted for I knew any benefits from it would not be seen for a number of years. I do not rule it as failed just because things have not magically changed straight away

They come here so they are motivated to come here. Remove some of what motivates them and then hopefully they would feel less motivated

oh and it was a copy and paste, I cannot cut text from a government website

EU countries do the same and some offer higher levels of support than the UK.

Didn't jaymoss just list the 'pull factor'? And why didn't you see this? What's your point?

Re: Britain outside the EU
 
Almost 26,000 'boat' people this year into the UK.
I'd estimate another 250 to 350 thousand here legally.

Lets go for a rather conservative figure of 300,000 migrants into the UK this year then. That's 300,000 that need food & drink, power for heating & cooking plus a roof over their head to do it in. Jobs, benefits, or student loans to be able to have those things, with schooling and health care when required.

How any was it last year . . 300,000 also?

Next years estimate anyone?

Close to a million extra people now aren't we . . . now look at some of the headlines lately regarding shortages and price rises.

However, it's not bad news, far from it. Economic experts have revealed that migrants contribute 」」thousands」」 more to the UK than people born & bred here, so we're on a winner, we just can't see it ;)
