Who wouldn't go a bit mad when they are kept in inhumane conditions (for years now!) by the French government? After having been through war (probably having seen their wives and daughters killed) and having fled thousands of miles to safety.
Why flee thousands of miles when there are safe countries within hundreds of miles? It’s almost as though they want more than just safety

I wouldn't, and hopefully neither would you.
You have to be borderline insane to want to welcome criminal scum like this in our country - that or a painfully naive, bleeding heart, virtue signalling lefty.
If you were truly right-wing, you'd fight for open borders - after all, the free market knows best.
Open borders are a batshit crazy idea even for the left.
More than three billion people on the planet live in extreme poverty. Sixty odd million people live in the UK, all possessing unimaginable wealth in global terms, even the most poverty stricken.
Open the borders and the country would be overwhelmed. It is completely nuts, utterly impractical.
Unless you are a lefty obviously, in which case it becomes a morally unanswerable policy.
Sounds like a good idea to have sanctions against the dangerously socialist France for their vile treatment of these refugees, and maybe force them to pay for their rehabilitation, yes.
They aren't refugees as far as Britain is concerned. They ceased to be so the moment they entered a safe country. And France is a safe country.
