We all know the current situation with regard to boats of people coming across the channel. Let me say to start with, I don't blame these people for wanting to come to the UK. There will be people genuinely fleeing situations that are dangerous to them, but I suspect a lot of them are just looking for a better life, compared to the countries in which they were born. I think the reason we now have an explosion in the numbers is because of more awareness of the different standards of living around the world. They see what we have in the western developed countries, and want it for themselves.

I really don't think it's possible to stop the flow of people, so it begs the question of how to accommodate them? I don't believe the govt know what to do about it. They certainly aren't stemming the tide, and tbh it's a very difficult problem to solve.

How do you think we should be handling the situation?
