Now that there is no benefit or reason for France to spend a fortune doing it job for them in their country rather than letting us attempt to deal with it in ours?
Only when we succeed in making trade with our neighbours so prohibitive that they stop sending those pesky boats and trains full of lorries over (or under) the moat
They can spend their lives yo-yoking across the Channel unless they have right of abode in the UK. However, we should be asking why they want to come to an overcrowded country, with a crap road system and insufficient housing,
I'm just guessing here but it might be a bit better than starving or being in fear of your life day in, day out
French politicians and members of the public are already demanding that our border control people in France should be sent back to Britain. The people in the camps will be on the next train.
Don't forget we regain control of what attracts them. When it's a lot more favorable to stay in France that's where they will stay.
I think we know the key reasons why many of them cross so many 'safe' countries to get here. Removing the pull factor will help to manage the situation.
Calais have wanted shut for ages. I suspect though we will divert a couple of quid from the 350 million we will be spending on the NHS to pay the French to cover the costs in fact all the 'savings' and a **** load more will be spent on stuff like this.
So the aim is to make the UK a worse country than the rest of Europe so people don't want to come here?
Before we had to provide THE SAME as the rest of europe. Why did that make the UK more attractive than the rest of Europe? It didn't. If it was an economic decision by the immigrants then logically we must have been giving MORE to immigrants than the rest of Europe were. With that in mind was it not already OUR governments decision to do this? Or have I massively missed something and the EU dictated that France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Greece etc must give all immigrants 20 euros a week and a tent but the UK must give them 500 quid a day and a mansion? If so there's no wonder we've pulled out
It's people's perception that attracts a lot of them. I one once saw on the news a potential immigrant being asked why he needed to get to the uk and he said because they give you a house and a car.
no you havent missed anything. Our own government is at fault for many things. The populace it seems cant differenciate and have taken their anger out on the EU. its fcucked up.
So again absolutely nothing to do with being a member of the EU then and completely to do with what they perceive our individual government provides. How has leaving the EU changed that? It hasn't.
If that is how you define controlled immigration then you're misguided. Why do you think so many cross so many borders and cross so many safe countries to get here? We should be seen as a safe haven and welcome people in genuine need of asylum but we can't continue being the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for bogus asylum seekers, economic migrants, foreign criminals and those with nothing to offer.
As I said in another thread it's no coincidence that the areas of the UK that the Tory government has shafted have voted for change, the areas that were treated well have voted for a continuation. Sadly they have blamed the wrong people, voted for change in completely the wrong area and have voted out the only people keeping the Tories under any kind of control.
Because (it is perceived) OUR GOVERNMENT chose to provide benefits above the statutory that the rest of Europe provided under EU regulations. How does leaving the EU stop us from providing more than the EU told us to?
