Undercut the smugglers by charging a small sum for legal ferries once or twice a day into secure UK points. It is SOO simple. 37,000 fewer in 2025 if the stupid government did this.

Surely they could already buy a bloody ticket on a ferry if they wanted or come through the channel tunnel.

So why don't they? These people have thousands of pounds to hand over. They are not skint, yet they leg it out of France as if they are literally running for their lives with no time to think about what they are doing.

Why are they doing this in this way by choice?

We are not a nation that is impotent against this, we are choosing to be impotent, and it's pathetic, and that raises another why question, why are the government, this one and the last effectively okay with it carrying on? WHY?

OH FOR GOD'S SAKE INDEED!

I've always wondered why they don't just buy a plane ticket when it's claimed they pay smugglers ten times the price of one.

Is it because they may not make it through immigration in their own country?

If only we in the West could stop blowing up countries there wouldn't be a problem.
