I've seen three instances of people arriving here by boat, only one widely reported. I wonder how many are going completely unreported?

Perhaps they're out scouring the shoreline for poor bedraggled sea-farers so that they can take them home, sponsor them, and send for their families.

Not complacent, only just logged on. Those in charge in the UK seem to be in denial of the facts in the same way they they are telling us those getting into the UK are not going to cause us any problems either as terrorists or disease carriers. If it continues as it is at the moment I can see the day where the Great British Public will say 'enough is enough' and take action themselves.
I have contact with a lot of Ex-Service people and I can assure you they are not at all happy with what is happening, or more to the point not happening to protect our Country.
Yes naomi, our so-called leaders seem to have abrogated their responsibilities as far as protecting our borders goes.
The problem is any measures they might take will only mirror those being taken in the Mediterranean: that is the efforts will concentrate on “rescuing” the invaders instead of keeping them out. If boats are detected coming approaching from France without leave to land they should be towed back to France. If people are dopey enough to set out to cross the Channel in an overloaded rubber boat (from a place where they were perfectly safe but which they just didn’t fancy too much) then that’s their lookout. So long as they are “rescued” and brought to the UK their efforts will continue.
I do fear that sooner or later, as Balders suggests, people will take this matter into their own hands. It will not be too long before the beach at Dymchurch and elsewhere is patrolled by a bunch of ex-squaddies and personally I’d not blame them.
