Brexit has no effect on migration from outside the EU.


No, but the Brexit campaigners were suggesting (wrongly, of course) that
Turkey was soon join the EU, and that Arab refugees in Germany would soon
be granted citizenship, and would then be able to freely move to the UK.

It does, because it affects how many of the people camped at Sangette
(who are non-EU) get to the UK, and even whether the Sangette camp will
eventually be relocated to somewhere on the Kent coast.

No reason it should. The le touquet agreement is nothing to do with the EU.

The reason that it's in Calais is that the people there want to be close
to the UK so as to make it easier to get to the UK.

In the hypothetical situation of the French just opening the gates and
letting them through, there would be no reason for them to want to stay
in Kent. And our government has a policy of dispersing migrants around
the country and not just requiring that they stay next to the port they
entered through.

It is therefore clear that any suggestion of "the jungle" being
replicated in Kent is, to be blunt, ********, unless it is populated by
British people desperate to flee to France.

If there were many thousands, I think they'd be detained in specific
locations. We have a precedent in Oakington (now closed).

Perhaps they wouldn't be in Kent, but there have been suggestions in the
past that ships might be used, and Kent is on the coast...

They are illegal on both sides of the Channel already, and the UK has
its own immigration controls in place already. Brexit won't change
anything there. Something else is apparently not working, that won't be
fixed by leaving the EU.


Well hopefully once the law is re-adjusted and we no longer have to cowtow to
that ****ing human rights act then once these illegals are found they can be
booted out ASAP instead of parasite lawyers dragging the process out for years
with some variation on right to family life or BS a`bout being tortured if
they're sent back.
