There are an awful lot of things in this world where the outcome is the same but the route/method make a lot of difference.



Actually yes, there is.

I imagine this is because we aren't a fascist state. At least, not yet.

This is subject to change of course.
Apologies, you're right, I should of made myself clearer... No offence is commited by them entering British soil, it's the fail to claim that then causes the no leave offence.


To the bolded part, why then are 1.3m migrating?

How exactly does the route/method make a difference? It's a means to an ends. The end objective is the same.

A lot of people seem to make the assumption that every person in places such as Calais are unskilled and potentially low paid employees despite well publicised news reports highlighting highly skilled people such as Dr's etc. that are there.

We as a nation are as guilty of economic migration as those that currently live in squalor. The only difference as we have already agreed is the route taken. Whilst we do it on commercial airlines they asphyxiate in the back of HGV's drown as boats capsize.

My biggest annoyance seems to be the attitude taken (not just on here) that lets let every other country deal with it so long as it doesn't affect us.

People need to realise that this is a an issue that requires a different thought process to lead to resolution. The current stance of stamping feet whilst putting fingers in hears and shouting 'La la la I can't hear you' isn't going to work.
