"The perpetrators of this disturbance will be held to account and, where appropriate, removed from the country as swiftly as is practicable." so said Robert Jenrick,
//terms of the convention have been unilaterally changed by the UN, signatories are entitled to withdraw. //
True.
However it will not prevent the small boats tipping up on these shores. For that, one needs the cooperation of the French.
No matter how much money is given to the French to form an alliance over this matter, they will never in a month of Sundays bear the full brunt and the pressure put on its own country by those seeking asylum. Therefore the UK can expect a steady spill to flow out of France towards our shores.
There is absolutely no justification in tarring with the same brush every Albanian that arrives here on these shores.
Recent figures (first half of 2022) show they constitute overall to just 18% of all those seeking asylum.
Each and everyone of them at least deserves to have their story heard. Albeit glacially slow, the UK does have an established process for
dealing with immigration.
OPs would be well advised to remember the old adage... 'Walk a mile in someone elshe's shoes!'
Several OPs have opined and advocated the use of machine guns, the sinking of dinghies, leave them in holding pens to starve to death, let the babies drown etc
Such language is not just appalling, it's sickening to the core! Absolute total callousness!
It is the language of a tyrant or in these modern times, a disposition akin to Vladimir Putin.
Nothing effective will be done to stop the influx or to remove those deemed to be here illegally. In fact the numbers will probably increase. Fortunately I won't be around to see the demise of a once-great country, my sympathies to those who will.

More Boris bashing?
Or is it Rishi Sunak's wife or the King's Dad that he has a problem with?
Of course, this xenophobic claptrap was published in the Daily Mail. "The Daily Mail owner did not deny claiming tax concessions as "non-dom", though he insisted this was because his father had lived in France. Lord Rothermere acquired France as his "domicile of birth" upon his birth as his father acquired a French "domicile of choice" by becoming a tax exile in Paris."

But fender, why would law abiding immigrants want 12000 Albanians here - many of whom we know have come to embark on a life of crime?
I really wish one of these supporters would tell me.
