oh sorry of course  goosebumps is an admirer of the open door welcome policy (which that copper blamed for the current situation)

As for walls, they don't work. If entry is free for all and there's no one guarding the gate, what good is the wall?

We have have had Bulgarians , Albanians and fook knows who else Mentioned as Running the Show ,Turns out its a Team of Paddies fookin ell China to Eire ,then the wheels fell off ... Did one of the London Bridge mob not arrive From Dublin ??

I think we need to be looking at little harder at what is coming in  from there tbh ...

Here's yer Man  ,No hanging about with Pics and a Name on this one by the Beeb

It doesn't look good for this guy. Why would you call your cab the 'Polar Express' if you thought you were just picking up a refrigerated container of food? I bet he regrets calling it that now. Almost seems to be arrogant/flaunting it. It's like a reference to the Orient Express (similar journey) except it's frozen. They use refrigerated containers because they are sealed and not opened until the final destination and turn them down to -25C after they are sealed so that nothing inside will show on a thermal imaging camera at any checking point. This, despite only about 1% of lorries being scanned. Scumbags. The Vietnamese say there were 100 on 3 separate lorries and the other 2 got through. Apparently there was an unexpected delay with this one which is why they all froze and the others didn't.

Also, he seems to have driven his cab with no lorry on it from NI to the UK mainland via ferry to Holyhead and then all the way to London. Logistics is a big thing in the freight industry and every freight company has a logistics manager. You would never send a driver on a journey like that or use a driver that had to travel such a distance to start the delivery. It's different if the driver coming from NI is making a delivery on the way over to London but if not you would get a local driver in Essex to pick it up, reducing driver time and fuel and ferry costs, very basic stuff. And any driver who was sent on a trip like that would be thinking 'why are they sending me for this when they could just use a local driver?'.

They have him on money laundering charges as well, so there must be a money trail and he must have been getting paid well over the going rate for these deliveries. They send the container into the UK unaccompanied so that there is plausible deniability for the driver who collects it from the UK port - he can say 'I just picked it up and didn't have a clue what was in it and when I discovered the contents I immediately rang the police'. But going on such a trip and presumably getting very well paid for it would be enough to arouse the suspicions of any driver. Apparently, he told police he opened the container to get paperwork. That's nonsense, no way the shipping docs would be inside the sealed container. No container can move anywhere without these docs and no driver or ship would take one without them.

The only way they can do him for manslaughter is if they can prove he is part of a joint-enterprise, ie that he had some knowledge of the contents/operation. It is clear that he didn't cause their deaths as they were long dead before he picked up the container. So they are obviously confident that they can prove it, assuming he hasn't confessed and given them details of the operation in a bid to reduce his sentence.

There may well be an Irish element to this case but this guy is British, a loyalist from NI, the same guys who are propping the Tory government up, and the Belfast newspapers are saying that the route used is a know loyalist heroin smuggling route through Asia and Europe. There is talk that the guy who brought the container to Zebrugge is an Irish national but nothing confirmed just yet.

And our International Health service looks after em all for free, legal or not.

just how many hundreds of thousands are pouring into this country illegally?

how many over the last 20 years?

Time for biometric ID cards no card no treatment on the NHS instead of allocating NHS funds upfront only pay the NHS of the work it as carried out and only then if the paperwork as been correctly filled out

Three people arrested in connection with the deaths of 39 people found in a lorry trailer in Grays, Essex, have been released on bail.

A man and a woman, both 38, from Warrington, were arrested in Cheshire on Friday and a 45-year-old man from Northern Ireland was arrested at Stansted later the same day.

All three had been questioned on suspicion of manslaughter and conspiracy to traffic people.

The man and the woman from Warrington were released on bail until 11 November, while the 45-year-old man was bailed until 13 November, Essex police said on Sunday.

The Foreign Office should be sending messages to all countries not to think about coming here illegally.

If you do you will be arrested and deported. NO AMNESTY.

Instead we get the softly, softly approach which indirectly leads to these tragedies.

The BBC ran a story about a Syrian man who took 55 days to get here. They were lauding him as some sort of hero. It was nauseating.

No mention of the need for men like him to stay, fight for and protect his country. Nor the fact he turned his nose up at umpteen European countries!

They do not have a better life in Vietnam. It is a very poor communist country with little freedom. They have a mudane life where work is hard to find and they will be poor for life. But they are not fleeing for their lives. The villages they come from in Vietnam are full of families who have gotten rich from sending their kids away to work illegally abroad. This is more of a a greed issue than anything else. It's not like a Syrian fleeing a warzone where his life is in danger.

They cost is £30k but they only pay a small deposit and the son/daughter then normally has 3 years to work off the rest or else they go after the family back home, which ensures the son/daughter will work to pay the debt. Vietnam and China are communist countries - you think it's easy to leave one of those?!

It's easier for some, if you're connected or rich. These people are not.

What wealthier countries are you talking about?

Goldenvision Correct they could just come as Tourists and Disappear ???

They are willing to get into £30k of debt (about 10-15 years salary over there) and send their kids off with people traffickers. And some people on here think they can just float down to the airport, get a visa and hop on a plane instead at a fraction of the cost in a communist country. How clueless do you have to be to think that?

But it seems they were planing to live under the radar
so why not fly in

They didn’t have a tourist or student  visa

Visas LOL. They are communist countries. These people are not allowed to leave them FFS. They are peasants with no status, wealth or connection to power.

Millions of Chinese tourists in London
