Re: MP's response to an immigration question
Hi
The ECJ was just ruled on an important point of law on situations like this.

A rare bit of commonsense , Merkel and Juncker are not happy.
We have to differentiate between genuine refugees and economic migrants.
Genuine refugees are just happy to get to a place of safety, it does not mean travelling across Europe to reach the UK.
We are not a dispassionate country, we heavily fund refugee camps abroad and are committed to taking 20,000 genuine refugees, which we have vetted, direct from these camps to the UK.
I am getting somewhat annoyed with those who constantly criticise us, we do far more with others.
In this instance they are economic migrants, they have paid significant amounts of money to crooks to get here.
We need to send a clear message to the people smugglers, so this family should be deported asap.
There is no need to mistreat them and I have no time for those who would.
It is not the kids fault, we should look after them well whilst they are here, but out they go and they go quickly.
It is not rocket science to determine the point of entry of the wagon, so they go back to that country,as part of the current EU Treaties.
Days, not weeks.
I am also fed up with France, which is the first to criticise us.
They allow huge, insanitary camps of illegals in France, we do not do the same thing here.
The suggestion that we put them in a small boat and set them adrift just outside our territorial waters is just plain wrong, we are not animals, we are better than that.
The other thing is that we should demand proper Border Controls from our Government.
The fact that they could get here just shows how lax our current systems are.
There is no point at all in this let's take back control rubbish if we are so inefficient that we cannot protect our own Borders.
