How would you stop so many immigrants entering Britain?

870,000 here illegally according to todays papers, & no doubt some of those are on one benefit or another.

Careful loosehead - almost sounded like you were agreeing with me on something there! :p

It does happen! I did agree with your reply about Dom's "It's my ball and I'm going in for tea" approach

Can't remember what I was going to say now!  Honestly!  Will go away and do what I'm meant to be doing - i.e., working on my thesis, and will return later to make the point.  I'm sure it was a very good point that I was going to make!! :-)

Appologies for not being as intellectually educated as most on this thread, but I'll do my best to get my point accross.

I Don't know how true this is, but I read somewhere that when illegal Africans arrive in the Canary Islands, the officials just ship them off to Britain.  How many other countries do the same..... "Sorry, can't help you, but I know a country that can"

Why are we such a soft touch?

I am not a racist, & I do love our multi-racial country, but why did no-one take note of Enoch Powell's 'Rivers of Blood' speach back in the 60's, instead of condeming him for it.
