Agree, so why increase the chances?

You mean they had a british passport not that they necessarily exhibited any overt signs of Britishness I.e. loyalty to their country of birth and other such trifles.

Whether they were British or not the likes of you don’t want to deal with that particular threat either way so that’s somewhat of a moot point.

Of course I do. Stop illegal wars and bombing other countries, that would help

When did we bomb iran then as currently thats the new arrivals country of departure.
Ironically maybe also the least likely not to want to assimilate into society as theirs is relatively western.

I do get fed some info from someone close who also works for the border force and I am aware there is a very serious problem with our borders from non EU migrants.

I just don't think the recent "flood" of Iranians across the channel so few in numbers they could fit on a bus constitutes a crisis.

Your deduction is correct but... these are only the ones that are caught/reported on. What about the nightly arrivals at Newhaven/Gatwick and probably every other port? A small trickle may be reported but they are just the tip of the iceberg (look what happened to the Titanic when it took on an iceberg). I feel people should distinguish between genuine asylum seekers (which are few) and economic migrants (that are the majority)

That is such a stock answer.

Did America bomb Mexico?

Get it into your head. Most migrants are opportunists and move for economic reasons.

When you finally accept this fact, you might get off your moral high horse.

and you would just open the doors to everyone who wants to come to the UK? We didnt bomb Iran did we/? Yet they all want to come to the UK? Why? Benefits? Houses? Please tell us why the want to come here, from France which as far as I know isnt a war zone (except at weekends in Paris)

Hmm I suspect this could morph into one of those heated debates were we ultimately agree that we actually agree

My problem is the media frenzy over the handful slipping across the channel and the vile political opportunism that followed it.

Btw Iranians?? I get the border control and resoutces argument. However does not the threat to western countries from terrorism not come from sunni Muslims? Iranians are shiite, no?

Quite so, but they are only representing the voters.

You know 'This Happy Breed' !

A pox on them

I think I heard today that from 2010 till the start of this year,80,000 asylum seekers have been refused status,and only 26.000 have been sent back...the others have done a magic trick and disappeared.

The majority are, yes. They have a persecuted minority... the Bahai's but I suspect the majority of this faith left Iran many years ago. My biggest issue with undocumented arrivals, as Istated earlier, is that we do not know who they are or, indeed, in some cases what country they are from.
Unfortunately the veracity of documentation some supply is in doubt, having said that "genuine" documentation is readily available (at the right price) in many countries. Indeed I have my own genuine death certificate which was purchased whilst in the sub-continent (offical paper/official seals etc)

They were in the World Cup, yes.
