Re: The boat people

Your argument, Ian, is founded on there not being sufficient leagal routes to the UK.

I'll certainly grant your point #2 - but it would still take some time for determination of claims made in France.

If the UK had taken up that offer, would it have stopped the boat people? I suspect not. They can be across the channel on a boat in a couple of hours rather than a couple of months.

The whole point here is that the boat people do not need to come to the UK.
