Depends on the country, it is for some people from some countries.It's not illegal to leave a country. The British border control is in Calais, not in Dover. The French one is in Dover not Calais.
If you enter the EU after October you're going to be in for a shock. That's for you to discover later this year.
For the Ukranian refugees that came through France, they were turned away at the ports and told to go to the British embassy in Paris.
How do refugees get on a plane. To get a ticket you need to quote a passport or ID card number and I've usually had to show a passport and I've travelled far more than I really wanted to.
The refugees are transported to the coast and put on a small boat, they're not controlled by anyone. Only those that are intercepted which is approximately 50%
On the wider point about legal routes being set up. What would happen to the people being turned down through those legal routes ?
I get your argument but it is missing that point isn't it?
Unless you are saying the UK sets up legal routes and anyone can apply but if the UK declines them then France takes responsibility for those people in France who are declined by the UK. What would be the likelihood of France being prepared to do that?
Exactly...
