have you seen the price of Gas at the minute?

Have you seen the price of illegal chartered flights that never take off but are still charged to the tax payers? About 500 grand apparently.

Have you seen the price of keeping folk here who shouldn’t be here but are still charged to the tax payers?

About 1.5£ billion a year apparently. 
Criticising the cost of an attempt to solve the crisis of people risking their lives (many die) to come from a safe country should be taken in context.

They should be here though.

“Illegal” migrants don’t get anything.

Asylum seekers get some money, but I suspect they’re not spunking it all on sky sports and BMW’s

Illegal immigrants do get stuff. Including expensive legal representation. They're not allowed to starve are they?

Some of these have been seen chucking their identity documents over the side of their dinghies.

Time to pop one at the stern and use the escaping air to propel it back to France.

Might beat the top gear/beard Branson record.

Aye, because they wait until they're in view of the Dover coast until they throw their documents into the sea.

Pretty sure anyone coming into the U.K. get something. Illegal or Asylum seekers.

Not sure ‘They should be here’ though. 
We have a process to differentiate.

Like every other country in the world, we will deport the ones that don’t conform to the rules.

They are the lucky ones. Some took them to the bottom of the English Channel. 
If only the French could do something to stop this ongoing tragedy. Don’t hold your breath.

The French and Germans keep way more than we do.

Fortunately Brexit allowed us to stop them coming over here and pinching all our jobs.

Claim and be accepted for asylum, they get an 'Aspen' card which is used to withdraw cash. They used to get £30 cash a week and accommodation.

Dont claim or have your claim refused and you get nowt.  There are thousands in the UK in that position. Destitute yet getting by purely down to friends and charities.

So if I go to another country and don’t claim whatever ever, I’ll get nowt? If they don’t register or claim in any other EU country, I guess they get nowt also?

Yeah.  It's pretty similar across Europe.  Most of those in France waiting to cross here, won't be getting anything from the French Govt.  The majority though who do claim asylum there, get around 35 euros until their case is decided.

All Legal Representation for the Rwanda flight victims was voluntarily provided for FREE by people with souls.

Whatever the French and Germans do is irrelevant. If that’s true. Every country has a right to decide who crosses its borders. Many others have taken less. It’s not a competition. Those migrating into Europe aren’t risking their lives after paying a fortune to bastards who couldn’t give a shit about them (not necessarily French)

As for Brexit, most of us who did our homework knew that immigration wouldn’t be affected. Some didn’t.

If only the French had souls and did something to stop the tragic crossings. Don’t hold your breath.

You literally just said what the French do is irrelevant?

I didn’t do my homework. Probably busy. I was swayed by bullshitters and racists.

We live and learn.

Of course they get something, they’re not just left on the streets

Never be swayed by a racist. No excuse I’m afraid.

Bullshitters are all over the place, that I can understand.
