I suppose if it's in France it's not our decision to make .
Just make it diplomatic land. Like an embassy is technically sovereign land of that country. They could do the same for a migrant processing by centre.
We already have a consort in Calais. It’s where the Ukrainians had to go to be welcomed by a trestle with water and crisps. We can do it, we just chose not too, driving people trying to get here into the arms of the criminal gangs to get here. We’re enablers of the criminal gangs and despite the government lines it’s by choice.
Why are Albanians so keen to get here all of a sudden , Tony. Is it because they're fleeing from civil war ?
It’s because they know we’re no longer in the EU so the mechanics to return them back to the first EU country they entered no longer exists. It’s the Albanian mafias brexit bonus. Same for everyone arriving by boats. The Albanian mafia has taken back control.
What is it you think I’ve made up? It’s a fact that when we left the EU we lost the right to send people entering the UK back to their point of entry into the EU. Facts are facts, you can’t choose them like opinions.
So basically they’re coming for the same reasons as Suella Braverman, Pritti Patel and Rishi Sunaks parents came. Simple economics.Have a read of this:
Why are Albanians Fleeing for the UK? - Exit - Explaining Albania
The waiter placed my coffee in front of me and asked with a grin, “where are you from, miss?” I replied that I am from the UK but have lived in Albania for five years. Throwing his hands up in the air, he exclaimed, “oh you English come here, and all us Albanians want toexit.al
tldr: they aren't criminals
Alan you sound like you lie awake at night worrying about Albanians? People/human are clearly coming here to better their lives and get decent jobs (there is a labour shortage remember). If they do disappear underground then Police need to work harder to crack down on prostitution, slavery, drugs, security, car wash businesses, nail salons, factories, hotels, UBER, Just Eat etc. where they are being exploited below NMW. Will the Conservative & Unionist Party seriously clamp down on this illegal economic activity? Not a cat in hells chance. Also the demand from UK residents (some who should know better) for cheap drugs, sex, goods and services is fuelling a lot of this demand for exploiting cheap oversees illegal labour. What a country we have become and now with limited EU legislation to control businesses and protect people in work.
Did they get here via small boats hidden in the French sand dunes. What utter tosh .
Who mentioned criminals ?Have a read of this:

I have no idea how they got here but I’m sure they used the means available to them. The other point is they had the same motivation as people arriving today. I think the rest of Pritti Patels family followed as refugees didn’t they.
It's less ID cards I'd say but the complete demolition of all the public infrastructure that carries out this sort of checking. The small state the Tories covet means there is a bigger black / grey market
every job I've had I've been required to provide ID so I'm not sure ID cards would make any difference. Seems the problem is the employers are happy to employ illegal workers, to save themselves money, and as you say there's not enough checks being carried out.
because we're taking back control
Watched this again just the other day, for the umpteenth time. Gets funnier each time. Genius.
