    Migrants

    What is a country to do with an overwhelming amount of migrants some by sea others by land ?

    Do we do as Britain does and help them as near to home as possible,

    Or lock them up let them out then hope to deal with them later.

    just fend them off at the borders ?

    Let any in that comes and just try and cope ?

    Send them somewhere else to be processed Australia style ?

    Why would people travel from warmer, sunnier places, halfway across the World to come to a country where the weather is damp and cold in comparison, and where unemployment is very high? It is not to better themselves, since those countries from where these people come from are pretty well advanced. The only possible reasons are for the free health care,generous benefits and no conscription.

    The people arriving illegally in the UK, or in the waters around the UK are being sent back to the first European country they arrived at.

    I would disagree there. If there had not been such a huge influx of immigrants to the UK - then the UK would have accepted them as it always has done. But the UK is now one of the most densely populated countries in the World - and we have millions of our own people unemployed.

    If these people had anything about them, they would have had good positions in their own country and would not have wanted to leave. As it is - we have gained a huge population of people, suited only to service industries - we already have enough of our own people for this work.

    So much wrong with this staement but let's just focus on two inaccuracies:
    unemployment is very high. UK unemployment rate up to July 2019 is 3.8% and has not been lower since 1974. Unemployment has been falling for 5 years (Office of National Statistics)
    those countries where people come from are pretty well advanced. Syria, Iraq, even sub-Saharan Africa? Really? Maybe they are fleeing war, famine, persecution, good enough reasons to come to a cold, damp country possibly?

    EU Free Movement of Migrants was non negotiable.

    Migrants who come to the UK legally for study or work or marriage or to join family have added compliance rules if applying non EU citizen.

    If you have any actual facts about uemployment rather than conspiracy theories or tribal loyalties I'd be happy to hear them. And BTW, memes are not rational discussion just a lazy way of promoting a bias.

    Same old tropes, same old complete misunderstanding of the circumstances.
    You sound more and more like Trump every day.

    working just one hour a week is all that is needed to be officially classified as employed.

    I bet you're a real hoot at party's

    Once again you make this personal.
    Back up your argument with verifiable facts or get off the pot.
