THE behaviour we have seen coming from some of the migrants in Calais whose sole aim is to get into this over generous, soft touch country of ours by using any means that it takes, totally unconcerned of the disruption their actions are causing for the British holiday makers wanting to holiday in France. These are not actions that I would suggest will endear these people to the majority of the British public. Sadly there are more migrant children being drawn into this sorry mess with Kent welfare workers struggling to cope with a surge in unaccompanied children seeking asylum with the number having doubled to 605 since May. One can only guess as to how these kids have come to arrive in Kent in the first place. The migration problem will get worse i fear as more and more displaced people head for Calais, but I also feel that it is the French government's problem and as our country is already full. Our government's priority should be on concentrating on tightening our borders.
