Change the 'migrant' to people - are posters on here seriously suggesting we should let people drown in the sea?

Where would you go if there was war in the UK tomorrow? Where would you go if there was no work in the UK? Where would you go if there were economic sanctions placed on the UK - before answering please bare in mind we are no longer 'free' to move around Europe as we see fit as of March 29th 2019

Which country on earth allows anyone to enter with no checks whatsoever?
Plus, It's no good attempting to lay guilt trips. Nobody has forced Iranians to jump into a dinghy in the middle of the night risking their lives.

No guilt trip, pal

Of course no-one has forced them(physically) but they have obviously weighted up the pros and cons and figured that risking their lives at sea is a better option than not doing - I cannot imagine any circumstances where I would do that so I am going to assume where they are coming from is pretty fucking awful

In addition. We are not being invaded, a few 100 people in little boats looking for a better life is hardly cause for bringing in the nave

Anyway, I will ask again - where would you run to and how would you get there?

Silly using boats really, if they swam across they'd be fast-tracked for citizenship and entered into the Olympic programme.

Imagine if the spanish armada or german invasion force were sailing down the channel nowadays, if Savid and his mates panic over a few 100 in a rubber dingy, they would positively fall to pieces if someone actually tried invading.

They're coming from France. It isn't great, but I wouldn't go as far as calling it pretty fucking awful.

I was in the Jersey and went to france, and never shown a passport as I entered the EU from a non EU country, should I turn myself in as having illegaly crossed a border?

And then returned not showing a passport.

In fact when I returned to the UK from Jersey I never showed my passport, just went through a different lane.

You should have shown one because whilst Jersey is not in the UK it is in the CTA. To leave the UK/CTA and get into Europe, you have to be able to show a passport to get into France.

Similarly if coming from the EU to the UK, entry via a UK border requires everyone to show a passport (except if coming from the UK/CTA):

Obviously if you aren't entering via a border it doesn't change the fact that you need to go through customs. I fly light aircraft occasionally with friends into Europe and you have to arrange to fly in/out of designated customs airfields on both sides of the channel for this reason.

I know Calais has gone downhill since we all used to go there on day trips from school but it’s not that bad. France really is a lovely country if you give it a chance.
