But that's your only fucking argument that you keep bringing up even after I agreed. If an asylum seeker already has family in the UK and speaks English, I have no problem with their settled status being preferential to the UK rather than them being sent to Finland. But it doesn't matter that I say this because next comment you'll repeat yourself.

It's too late for that after the "But 100 million people could move to france tomorrow legally" comment, you don't know what you're talking about.

  • You don't know the difference between an asylum seeker and a working migrant.
  • You don't know that asylum seekers cannot work and are state-sponsored.
  • You don't know the rules of the EU.
  • You don't know that a large number of illegal immigrants across the channel are economic migrants not asylum seekers that left their families back home where they can't return because "they'll be killed" so they can make better money in the UK.
  • You don't recognise that asylum seekers can't work
  • You repeat the "BUT WHAT IF THEY SPEAK ENGLISH" line literally 4 times with the same answer each time
  • You don't understand the need for limits on immigration because EU freedom of movement exists, in the EU, which is largely made up of wealthy countries with similar cultures.

Like I said, if you can find a place for them to live, money to support them, then go and make your case to the government to set up a ferry from Calais. Until then, that's the reason why the number of asylum seekers any country takes in is limited, France included.
