it is, however many of those being looked after are not refugees, but illegals entering UK by boats. Time that was stopped.

emmie: That's why I put 'refugees' in inverted commas.

[emmie]

illegal Albanians coming to UK are not universally welcomed, bringing their criminal gangs to the country.

[emmie]

ok.

[emmie]

i would like to see the RN escort them back to France.

[Gromit]

To our credit we are looking after nearly 200,000 refugees fro Ukraine. Well done UK, we have twice as many as France.

Lets take back contol of our Borders.Who said that ?.

[Gromit]

Nothing to do with taking back our borders you idiot. There is a war in Europe, and we have invited 200,000 Ukrainians to come here out of harms way.

We do something right, and great, and then we get criticised for it.

Gromit, only steve bray can save us from ourselves, maybe gully1 is steve

I'd guess the Gulliver means the unwashed hordes invading from the sea rather than Ukrainian refugees, Gromit.

Someone less polite might suggest you 'ave a day off. X

Would the Albanians destroy their documents before meeting the UK authorities?
If they don't the planes chartered to fly to Rwanda should be used to take them back to their homeland.
They're not refugees, economic migrants maybe.

[Gromit]

This story is about the 200,000 Ukrainian legal refugees that the UK have generously taken in.
Very sad that people are zoning in and concentrating on the 30,000 illegal channel migrants. You should all hang your heads in shame.
