I feel they ought to be kept on the other side of the channel, or sent back as soon as they jump out of a dinghy. If their family need them so much, they can also take themselves off to the other side of the channel. My question was in response to @nauseus saying that Farage had to take out German citizenship because "He has to be sure that he can access his family in the future - what's the big deal?"

They are migrants when they enter the UK, they become asylum seekers if they claim asylum and refugees if they are granted asylum. If they don't claim asylum and instead disappear then they are illegal immigrants. Got it now? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3NUMBAS Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 The UK had been paying about 23% of the EU's bills until we completed the 1st part of our escape. If we had still been in that's €172.5 billion that the UK would have been handing over. There's one other thing about the €750 billion. As the article mentions, the EU Commission, that's the Brussels self appointing bureaucracy, will borrow the money, then for the first time ever, it will set and collect taxes directly to pay off the debt. That is the thin end of the wedge. It opens the door to Brussels setting a European budject and taxes. https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1335863/eu-news-germany-france-angela-merkel-emmanuel-macron-eu-coronavirus-frugal-four 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other group of 30 were featured in a recent TV documentary about smuggling in Cornwall. 30 Vietnamese smuggled into the UK from France in a yacht then transferred to a Luton van. All youngsters. Amazing how many of them claimed to be 16. They pay big money in Vietnam to seek their fortunes in the UK.

The UK seems to have trouble enough ruling the UK - can't even get people to wear masks and keep their distance in a pandemic. While I was once a foreign remainer and initially felt sorry that the UK chose to leave, you know what, now I am kinda glad that the UK has gone and my taxes no longer go to paying the Thatcher negotiated rebate and having to put up with the self-entitled "the sun never set on the British Empire" routine, having lived off poor countries that were your colonies for hundreds of years. It is a different world, this 21st century, and I think that the UK is going to learn about it the hard way. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no such thing as EU citizenship, nor an EU passport. But there are reports of Farage applying for a German passport, which he has never denied. There are also reports of his being investigated by the German police because he lied in that application. A simple denial from Farage would clear this up. Odd that he hasn't made one in the 4 years since the story broke; considering how quick he was to deny other accusations, such as his alleged threats to civil servants and breaking quarantine after returning from the US. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
