They don't have to do anything at all.
as far as i am aware.
We live in a mad world, in Scotland the illegal immigrants get free bus passes (as reported on TV news), as they did in Portland.

We had 972 in ONE day, your news needs updating. So much for the crackdown, anyway we don't have illegal immigrants anymore, that problem has been resolved by the new Government classifying them as 'Irregular Immigrants'

Re: Learn something new everyday
If you think the UK has problems have a look at the numbers flooding into France.
https://www.connexionfrance.com/news...al-data/106797
The joint operation between UK and Bulgarian authorities resulted in 33 interceptions - and the seizure of 125 dangerous inflatable boats, 128 engines, more than 700 pumps, and 300 rubber rings
What do they do with Rubber Rings? Have swimming lessonsperhaps.
No one will stop these immigrants, certainly not as long as they know that if they get into difficulty the Channel Taxi service operated by the RNLI and the Border Force will pick them up.
Those who get on these Zodiac type craft are ignorant of the dangers they are placing themselves in.
