Another 15 illegals to add to the 35 only a few days ago, makes one wonder how many are getting through undiscovered?

We should put this on a sign on Dover lighthouse.

"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
I am not at all sure whether Sandy is being ironic or not!
the truck driver is likely to be handed judicial punishment for his part in the arrival of these people in this country.

the occupants of the back of the truck, on the other hand, whilst just as culpable, will be instead handed train tickets to East Croydon and told to get on with it.
-- answer removed --
Or better still Sandy, Oh Come to Britain
We think more of you than our own
What you want we will give you
Not a Tent, not a Flat, but a brick built home
Tell us what you need our friends, we will give you
There's no chance we will send you back home
There's even free money a car, and a mobile phone
Tell your friends that we need you, Oh yes, yes we do
Oh come to the UK Via France our friends
Then you can call this dump your home.



Amen, The Tory Party xxxxxxxxxx



Was it not the Labour Party who encourage immigration in the first place
and are now saying sorry?

Maybe we should let it be known that all containers entering the hou try will be left dockside got one month before opening,that may deter them.
That's ment to say country
It seems these immigrants got in to the container and the lorry in a European country - so they were already in a safe place !
Does not work like that Neil, a standing container is loosing money.
How desperate do you have to be to put yourself through an ordeal like that to escape your previous life. That is assuming you've not been trafficked for all your possessions by the real criminals

No one ever asks that question ...
As with those in the container a few days ago, ichkeria, these 15 had already escaped their previous life. They were in a safe country. But not, apparently, a country of their choosing. That was their desperation - to get to the UK not to escape whatever horrors they say they faced in their country of origin.
I don't doubt for a second that these poor people were desperate - but they had already made it to safety in Europe BEFORE they got into the container and lorry. According to UN rules, you must claim asylum in the first safe couintry you get to.
I must admit I always have had the belief that a person entering a country illegally, when discovered must be taken without delay before a magistrate and dealt with immediately. On the basis only of yes, welcome or, No and returned from whence they came.
Why not just open the borders, let the country collapse under the weight, go bankrupt and then they wont want to come here?

We are not far off that point as it is, infrastructure is bursting at the seams in some areas.
AOG I saw an estimate that less than 10% are detected , the rest get away with it but of course there is no way to know how many.

There seems little voice from the young over this, but it is their future that is at stake, the elderly already have a roof over their heads, no children of school age, and are retired so do not need work, although it is true that we may need the services of the NHS from time to time.

Yes EDDIE51, they just disappear into the ghettos, it is time everyone in this country were registered and supplied with identity cards, which must then be shown to take advantage of any services etc.

I can't really see the distinction somehow. It makes no sense to risk your life like that if you are already in a "safe country"
I am not defending their actions necessarily, but this conceit that people would kill themselves to get to Britain rather than stay in France is ludicrous. If we don't look at the bigger picture we have little chance of solving the problem.
Dover Lighthouse should have a sign." Eff off.We are full"
