They're consuming those resources for three main reasons:
- We take a long time to process their applications so potential nurses, HGV drivers, fruit-pickers etc are rendered economically inactive.
- We've declined France's suggestion that the UK allows them to claim asylum from France.
- We voted to leave the EU in 2016 which had allowed us to return such migrants to the EU country which they came from. I'm not sure Farage and Johnson emphasised we would lose this right.
