"I have visited that centre and saw for myself women who were fleeing war and persecution being isolated & detained."

Fleeing war? In France? I must have missed that in the news coverage...

I'm sure it's been said many times, If you're fleeing war or persecution, you could reasonable expect help & safety in the first country you arrive in...Turkey/Poland/Germany/France....

But due to that FANTASTIC idea of the EU to get rid of internal borders (completely stupid idea, in my opinion) these people then "flee" all the way across Europe, and end up....HERE, for all the freebies that they receive, from doctors/phones/benefits/housing as opposed to a tent in France.....

This government of ours is BEYOND stupid.... I await a visit from the "thought police"!!!!!
