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.

Stop illegal wars and bombing other countries, that would help

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)

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)

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?

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.
always a Norwood boy, where ever I live. |

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.
