flynny Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 19 hours ago, Newbie to this said: Absolutely not. (but I think you both already knew that wasn't what I was suggesting). (Although were are more or less there in some areas) By making it completely clear that anybody entering the UK illegally will be deported, no ifs no buts. Back you go. Also make it clear that you will never be allowed re-entry into the UK once deported. And massively increase the penalties for anyone giving them a job or harbouring them. 20 years should suffice with seizures of assets and revocation of citizenship if originally not a UK national. Stop the incentive for them to risk their lives to get to the UK illegally. All the while they see the UK as the 'promised land' things like this tragedy will keep happening.

Humility should be the order of the day here, as opposed to condemnation as displayed by some🙄 I agree no one should die, but ,, not our problem mate , we have enough as it is and it all boils down to , why they are trying to get here in the first place,.

Landyjoe Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 2 hours ago, henry d said: I`m no expert but I`m not sure why that a trailer would be sent across the channel (supposedly) empty and it seems odd that the driver/prime mover came into Holyhead on Sunday to pick up the trailer early doors wednesday? Trailer had a load on it. He went in the back doors for paperwork, which is generally where paperwork is put when a trailer is sent over. Stuffed in the shrink wrap of the last pallet. To someone who doesn't know it may seem strange but to keep goods moving trailers are often shipped unaccompanied. I'd say he would have dropped a trailer in the docks to be sent out to the man on the other side, and he collected this one which may have been taking him back towards Ireland. Generally cheaper to send freight in this way and happens at ports all over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumfelter Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 Asylum seekers may not seem much of a problem to those on here spouting from their ivory towers but swap places with a family in a council estate and see houses being given to people who have literally stepped off the last boat and I feel your opinions might change!

Firstly, anyone entering the UK legally would probably not be able to enter legally in the first place so denying them re-entry isn't much of a deterrent. Secondly, so an illegal black person is discovered in the UK by the authorities, no paperwork and refuse to cooperate - where do you deport them to, Africa? No, you do like China and build schools for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said I was wrong about illegal immigrants getting money as that was the post you quoted. It was referenced so you could check, I fail to see how I could either know or not know as it is a fact.

Danger-Mouse Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 On 23/10/2019 at 18:00, Scully said: It’s tragic by any standards, but is it shocking? Are any of us truthfully so moved as to do ANYTHING about it? Anyone moved enough to even write a strongly worded email to....who exactly? Anyone? We all watch the news with its daily reporting of child refugees in Syria, or wherever they’re killing each other today; we’ll take an intake of breath and tut at the telly, shake our heads and possibly say something along the lines of ‘something should be done’ before getting back to whatever occupies our daily lives. . . . We are too well insulated from world tragedy and too comfortable in our daily lives, and absolutely inundated with news and images of death, that few if any of us can be bothered to be put out by yet more of the same. We’re all talking about it, but that’s as far as it goes. I tend to agree. It's rather like the mass shootings in the USA. Terrible events for sure but how many people care enough to do anything about them? Even when it is closer to home it is difficult to summon genuine shock. Look at terrorist bombings. Even when the IRA was active few people did more than shake their heads and carry on with their lives. I think the same largely held true with ISIS attacks. For most people it's thoughts and prayers, maybe a candle and a vigil or buy a charity record and then after that it's "What's for tea love?" For others it's well it's sad but it doesn't directly affect me so to hell with it. #CountMeInThatGroup. It's a rough old world out there.
