We are about due for another war with France, this is as good a reason as any of the others.

Not just convicted ones, anyone with poor morals or general scummy types.

I'm not sure they need to be criminal at all. It's a poor life choice to choose fleeing a safe country to take such a risk as crossing the Channel in an inappropriate vessel. What's more is that they've passed up the opportunity to settle in any one of 26 other countries in the EU that are also safe havens and some of which they would also have travelled through to get to France. It's far from good parenting to have dragged your offspring many many miles across the EU and then to spend weeks or months living outside in an encampment in Calais. These children are also missing time that they should be attending schooling. If the EU and/or France don't want these immigrants then they should manage their borders effectively. We shouldn't be forced to take these people due to the EU not managing it's borders effectively.
We should have made continuing rights to return these people part of our Brexit agreement. I think if France isn't going to be doing the right thing in facing up to this being their responsibility to prevent then we should charge the EU for dealing with this rather than throwing money at France. Perhaps in retrospect we should arrange some sort of chargeback and offset it against fishing licences issued.

Government uses incentives to tempt foreign workers
Government spends money trying to stop immigrants coming in
Labour shortage?

Foreign workers are completely different than illegal immigrants obviously.

Foreign workers are invited to come here legally and work, these are economic parasites trying to sneak in illegally.

Yeah, I guess labour camps wouldn't go down well. Bad idea.
Those very same people would be paying taxes in the US whilst not benefiting from it.

Don’t quite get your point there

I would like to know what covid precautions are taken with the immigrants. PCR, quarantine like everyone else. What is it?

At least the stormy weather should help.

Hypothermia is when you’re too cold
Hyperthermia is what I get when I see those nude pics of Jennifer Lawrence

If hypothetically they found you on the beach with no ID, you're alright with being loaded onto a boat to a country you have no connection to?

I will still have baked camembert but maybe the cornish one if I find it. Wine I do not drink often preferring a decent craft beer.Well I'll still be buying French cheese and wine, sorry guys
Macron is a prat though. Remember the AstraZeneca quote. He has a hard on about Brexit and is deflecting his electoral problems onto Britain. However we have always had a bit of history with France being so close.

Now, if Jennifer Lawrence washed up on a beach near me with no ID, my views on illegal immigration would change drastically.

Man, it's a tough situation, it's almost like if you're too lenient you increase the numbers and actually make things worse. I just feel awful for those poor kids, I've got two young ones, the thought of their fear in the dark water just freezes my brain.
