The Calais fiasco is surely the clearest indication that a borderless Europe is a failure and that "rules/laws" are not being followed?
Assylum seekers are "supposed" to seek assylum in the first safe country they managed to get to and they should all be returned there!
The "economic migrants" are all illegal immigrants and again, they should be returned from whence they came?
Would the Calais fiasco be ended if those two scenarios above were followed.
As to the personal insults, best ignore and not respond?
It really annoys me when people come out with this tripe!
It is an internal EU agreement amongst member countries that asylum seekers should seek asylum in the first safe country they enter - it is not a UN rule nor is it enshrined in any international agreement.
As for sending illegal immigrants back to whence they came - where possible that is what does happen but how are you going to send thousands of undocumented immigrants back to places like Libya?
