What has the UK become?

We do, just after they’ve had to sail here on dinghies.

Again, they don’t have to do anything other than decide for themselves that France and whatever else country they have spent god knows how long going though isn’t quite accommodating or generous enough so it’s now time to risk life and limb doing something illegal.

The UK, just like any other country has every right to make law that decides what is and what isn’t acceptable and entry to the UK via a dingy ran by criminal smuggling gangs isn’t lawful.

In fact, I don’t know of one single country where it would be acceptable but happy for someone to point them out if they exist?

Maybe Chris Grayling could set up a dinghy business and drive the smugglers away?

These people genuinely believe it is their best/only option to make that journey, even with the danger attached. Whether people can accept that or not is pretty moot.
 
It’s quite uncanny how me posting has you appearing within a matter of minutes ;-)

I wasn't responding to you I was talking to Alan I also didn't refer to you in my post.

I've already given you an offer of a mutual ignore and you declined it.

You're an example that proves my point that Brexit and Asylum seekers are for sad angry men.

I pity you.
 
I was being sarcastic we have a few Labour centrists on here who do nothing but complain about Brexit and the govt being mean to asylum seekers for political gain.
They will obviously vote Labour you though you the Party which will continue with Brexit and will be mean to asylum seekers for political gain.

Hilarious really.
Same..... I have nothing left but ridicule
 
Adapted from the Refugee Council's explanation. (Of course, you've googled "why do people risk crossing in boats?")

It’s important to first acknowledge the global context, which is that the vast majority of refugees – 72% – live in a neighbouring country to the one they have fled (because they hope to go home). Other European countries including France receive many more asylum applications than the UK. The people who do come to the UK to claim asylum represent a tiny proportion of refugees globally. Here are some of the factors that lead to them seeking protection here.

  • Family and community. Seeking out family and community is a human impulse, and it is only natural for refugees to want to be reunited with their loved ones. With the UK’s restricted pathways to family reunion, however, refugee families torn apart by war are forced to face indefinite separation or make the desperate choice to risk their lives to be reunited.
  • What is safe? A country that you consider “safe” may not feel safe to every individual. Refugees may have had bad experiences in a country that make them feel unsafe or unwelcome. Or they may have had difficulties accessing that country’s asylum system. Poor living conditions and lack of food, shelter and healthcare are also factors that push people to take even greater risks in their journey to safety.

You may feel that competing with other countries as to how to be nasty is the way to go. I think you're in a minority.

Ah, responding to emotional hysteria over asylum seekers with research. A fruitless endeavour, alas.

Worth a try, though :)
 
I feel like there's too many inside jokes and sexual tension between blueinsa, mexico and Kobayashi these days. The casual onlooker can't keep up.
