The Navy could be brought in to intercept dinghies, but there are concerns it might put migrants' lives at risk.

County Council has said that 400 migrant children have been taken into its care this year, including 60 in the first week of August and 23 on Friday alone.A pregnant woman walks near the coast of Dungeness after arriving in the UK this week. Pic: Susan Pilcher

But Helen Baron, a solicitor who is representing a number of migrants who arrived in the UK by boat, says the tactics are illegal and could risk lives. She said:"A pregnant lady had to be assisted off by the ambulance service to go to hospital because she was clearly about to give birth.

Not sure why the Government consuistantly ignores the voice of the majority. Send them home immediately. A law that says, if you try and enter illegally they will automatically be excluded from applying for asylum and sent home immediately . It’s easy !

one of the busiest sea ways in the world think they are already putting their lives at risk.

Feck The Illegal Invaders !!

Er - what to do with the boats and occupants when intercepted? Sail to Iraq? Invade France? (Mass murder is against QRRN - Queens regulations, for the Swastika tattoo brigade) Just asking

Wouldnt here in full stop..goverment need to react....close to fg borders! Maybe that why there covid still here...!?

Well don't travel through many safe countries and don't sail across the channel in a dinghy.

Tough

Send them back its a security risk letting them in and Covid risk we don’t need !!!!

Something that should have been done from the start. As they come along. They are told turn around or get shot

They put their lives at risk setting out from France.

Oh well?

I though that “all lives matter” but it turns up that in the end, and like always, only some lives matter.

And the problem is

So some concern regards the British taxpayers these 🤬 are coming to abuse

So?

If they are allowed in what does that say to every other refugee asylum seeker. We may as well open the doors to all nations. Come in 5* hotel money in your pocket and we’ll build a bloody house for you too. Suckers!!!!

........ so?

As a former member of the HM Royal Navy I have always felt that we, as an Island, should patrol our territorial waters better, even more so following Brexit and if that means building more & faster ships in order to facilitate that then so be it. Our national security is at risk

They should stay home.

How many of the charity workers defending this have opened up there houses to house them. Look after our homeless and children in care first.

pritipatel this is your job if you can’t do it quit and let someone who can !!!!!

It’s too late now. Far too late. The U.K. government’s past and present have always highly underestimated abuse of opportunity. They’ve been complacent with illegal immigration, like they underestimated how furlough would be abused by companies and employees.

What do they mean, they want? Ask the important questions Sky

As it was illegal for them to leave France (Safe Country) why can't we once a month hire a big ship and simply send them back to France where they legally must take residence?

JUST STOP THIS DAMAGING, IRRELEVANT COVERAGE! There are much bigger fish to fry... you know: Your bosses. The corrupt Tory government. ToryRapist THE PANDEMIC etc., etc...

Clearly not working.....

Too bloody right. years too late 🥊🥊

By 6 come on

This is a Risk/Reward Issue. Increase the Risk & Remove the Reward. - Possible solutions: Fast Boats with water cannons? Divers with knives? - Do bodies need to wash up on beaches before action will be taken?

Even now, international law says that if they get half way, they are in UK waters, so they must be taken to Dover. There isn’t really much else to do. Interestingly the fishing rights issue is also one of territorial waters matter. Brexit

TAKE BACK CONTROL

Long overdue, should have been sent back weeks ago.

People in France are now Refugees.. and Asylum Seekers..

I dare you to do it

As usual it’ll take Boris too long to make a decision and 100’s of thousands will have entered ... Good luck England there are around 5 million more waiting in the wings . Next to Bangladesh you’re already the most populated country in the world per Sq Km

Candy floss for sky righters.

The word 'wants' is doing a lot of heavy lifting here, I feel.
