Gaffer: " ...... identity card was scrapped. It would have a positive effect in stopping the flow of illegal migrants."

Cheshirecat: "I do agree with you that it could have had an impact in stopping /slowing the flow of illegal migrants. "


How do you work that one out?
Consider this ......
twenty-odd miles of deep water doesn't stop them
Armed French police can't stop them.
British border force officers can't stop them.
Having no passport doesn't stop them.
The fact that they have no permission to be here doesn't stop them.

And you think they'll say ......

"come on Abdul, we've got us a boat and we're off to England in an hour, are you coming with us"?

"oh., I can't go to England with you lads, I've got no I.D. Card"!
