You call them illegal invaders and criminals, but that's a dangerous lie that ignores both the law and the facts.

The notion that we MUST house these illegal Invaders at all makes me want to throw up. It is not incumbent upon us to do anything of the sort- they are ILLEGALs and as such, the minute they set foot on British soil, they are CRIMINALS and should be treated as such . They should be locked up in a secure facility until such times as their status is established. If they are deemed to be ECONOMIC MIGRANTS they should be returned to FRANCE from whence they came. GENUINE asylum seekers could then be processed.

The Facts

You call them illegal invaders and criminals, but that's a dangerous lie that ignores both the law and the facts. Crossing the border to claim asylum is not illegal under UK or international law — the 1951 Refugee Convention, which Britain signed, explicitly protects the right to seek asylum regardless of how you arrive. Home Office figures show that over 70% are genuine asylum seekers, which is why the majority of claims are approved after proper assessment. Your demand to "lock them up" and ship them to France ignores that France has no legal obligation to accept people who didn't claim asylum there, and your use of dehumanising language like "invaders" is the same rhetoric used to incite hatred and violence against vulnerable people. If you actually cared about processing genuine asylum seekers, you'd support properly funding the system instead of spreading misinformation that treats human beings fleeing persecution as an enemy army.
