Re: Unstoppable migration?

Yes, I got the 'English' bit thanks. No Scots, Irish, Welsh amongst them then, not to mention all the other nationals who choose to live in the UK (not just England) then?

I'd still rather like to know who they are and whether they have any particular links to the migrants they're assisting or whether they're just **** exploiting a situation.

I was listing to a Hungarian journalist earlier who's spent a lot of time travelling with and interviewing migrants travelling via Serbia and elsewhere. He commented on how there are social media networks set up to help migrants exploit the system and advise them on where to go etc. Now of course this sort of thing is to be expected and is understandable but I do think we need to get to grips with the fact that this is being orchestrated on various levels and the days of small numbers of migrants taking their chances with no idea where they're heading are well and truly over.

Of course we are not yet seeing the huge numbers here but as they are processed and allowed to leave places like Greece, so they will head off to their destinations of choice which will include the UK via Calais. Not only that, but if/when the processing is speeded up, more will be tempted to follow knowing that their journey will be that little bit easier.

This is a European problem and indeed a global issue but if the likes of the EU can't get to grips with it I'd rather like our government to do so sooner rather than later because this is going to mushroom out of control if some order isn't imposed.
