Subject: RE: BS: Problems at Calais. Why?
I think the problem is determining if they are actually refugees.

As Raedwulf has sais they seem to have enough money to travel, the real persecuted people are those still sitting in Syria and other countries that we have helped to de-stabilise.

The alternative I suppose is to just open the doors to everyone, as we have been forced to do within Europe, due to our membership of the EU.

Italy and Greece cannot cope with more refugees, but we already have 250,000 economic migrants per year, coming from Eastern Europe, so an open door policy on all entrants would be catastrophic.
