gonzo Posted Thursday at 20:57 Posted Thursday at 20:57 Why do we need to show compassion to people that have paid thousands to smuggling gangs to get to our shores for the sole purpose of living for free in nice accommodation, fed, watered and given money? Again you're peddling this mad narrative that these a desperate people. Instead of standing in the sea waiting for a blow up boat they could get on easy jet a buy a flight for a ton. Quote

Why do you think they don't just do that then? Edited Thursday at 21:07 by Cheese Quote

Could they not just dump them in a bin after they've landed, like they throw their documents in the sea when they reach Dover in a dinghy? Edited Thursday at 21:32 by Cheese Quote

Pretty much every one who was a kid in the Krypton Factor days from round here has been on it once usually snuck in. Quote

No way are the old duffers in this village allowing that to happen. Sympathies pal. I do hope you get them to improve local diversity. Quote

They probably could do aye. Be a nightmare for passport control though. They'd have to face angry Brits with screaming children after a flight though. It'd be warfare. Plus there's no way they're paying £8 a pint at the airport. Quote

We went as a family with my dad, and my uncle! Don't remember "sneaking in" as such- the olds wouldn't have done owt like that. Can remember anything about it, other than a burly bloke in fatigues saying "get off". Quote

Ashes cannot be digsted, so you lock em up until they've had a crap (in the manner of suspected drug mules), sift the ashes from the shite and reconstruct the document. Probably using AI, but I haven't thought that bit through yet. Quote

Nobody is looking for them as they're simply a tourist until their Visa expires. Quote

Although the fact they were scanned before boarding might scupper the plan anyway Quote

No stuffed pork rolls close by but they have a cracking club down here with some mind bending beers at around 9% ABV. https://polishclubsikorski.com/ Quote
