Nope, I have solutions. 1. Reopen applications from abroad, and pass a law that anyone that comes across illegally is removed to country of origin irrespective of refugee status. 2. Rejoin the EU and take everything that comes with that, including the Euro and free movement of people if need be, and then ensure that we continue what we did before in removing using the Dublin agreement. 3. Start funding education in the countries that are the biggest issues, as well as tackling global inequality that pushed economic migrants towards Europe. Other solutions are just sticking plasters.

Badum tsccchhh...

But that was for 300 people only, and cost £600m. For 30k people that would cost £60bn.

In which case we're not gaining anything at all, just continue as we are now.

There are - not as many as the m n, but they are there - so where do they go?

How do you stop them getting out though? I cannot imagine it's be easy to hold huge amounts of fighting age men under lock and key.

But which detention centres? If we have to house 30k in detention centres how do we do that if we don't have any big enough to take them? Considering we're struggling for prison places (which is what you're asking for), why would we build for migrants but not for prisoners. And how long would they take to build? Prisons take between 3 to 5 years to build, and cost about £1bn to build for 1500 inmates. And that's not taking into account running costs. And we need twenty to thirty of these.

Do the kids and women go there as well?

Which detention centre?

Christ, if I like anymore of @hypochondriac I'm going to have to go for a scalding hot shower. Only kidding Hypo 😉

Unfortunately you're wrong, the bit I added was in brackets. If you go back and look at Osvaldorama's post directly underneath you'll see that as he posted just before I did the edit.

But it's not realistic to think they'll stop every boat without much more investment. If we withdraw all funds it's going to get much, much worse as they'll just be funnelled through by the French.

But how? What are you nuking and where? Just explain your thinking.

That's all we need, fuckwits in this country making another decision about something they don't understand.

Yes, but what's to stop France towing them or sending them back? It'll be like the fucking Chuckle Brothers as they are not either of our countries responsibilities.

But how is that a solution? I could just say "Jelly" without explaining. How is nukes a solution?

It's a long way for the Aussies to tow them back into French waters. Also, they don't, they tow them back to the country of departure, rather than just back into "waters". We used to have this option, but now we're out of the EU we don't.

This post wins the thread. Good job Hypo.

Why do you get so angry about us spending money we don't have to on migrants when you wilfully enable benefits cheats?

Ah, so that's why you're struggling.

But how is that a solution? How do you do that? This is not name a solution, it's explain a solution. How would it actually work?

You are being facetious aren't you? You're not seriously advocating a nuclear explosion on British soil to kill men, women and children?

Well what was the relevance of that then? 🤡

So you're going to nuke them are you?

The irony is fucking beautiful
