But by your reasoning, is the uk the first safe country they could get to? Taiwan, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam; they’re all closer by thousands of miles.

The question is why are they ‘risking everything’? They appear to have enough money to pay the people smugglers and they are coming from a safe country, having travelled through other safe countries to get there. Previous waves of refugees that we welcomed in were fleeing actual death (the Jews in WW2, the Ugandan Asians etc.). If they were being threatened with death by the French we would welcome them in to save their lives, they are not, they are economic migrants and we should treat them as such. We have plenty of people already here who are homeless and poor. Our priority should be to help them, not anyone who cares to rock up in a rubber boat. Why is it so difficult for you to admit that?

Also the risk, while present, isn’t that great in reality is it? The French are aware of them leaving and in many instances French ships shepherd them over the line into the waiting arms of the Border Farce and the free taxi service that is the RNLI. The French are only too happy to see the back of them.

Guff, you already know the answers to all those statements, you just don’t like them.
