Excitement in Blisworth today. A lorry pulls up in the village, dumps 20+ illegal immigrants and drives off. Police all over the place.

Blisworth though? A weird place to dump them. Nothing here whatsoever, only houses. I suspect there are many situations like this, and don't doubt that it's on a daily basis. Bloody useless border control.

Yes, I don't know where the lorry would have been going, I doubt the driver (if he was complicit) would detour to somewhere like Blisworth when he could have dropped them off in a motorway services or an A road lay by. I would guess he was legitimately travelling through Blisworth on his way to a fairly nearby destination totally unaware of the stowaways when the heat got too much for them and they started banging on the trailer headboard, even with the rear doors open (while loading for example) it is absolutely sweltering inside a Tautliner trailer on a hot day.

Lots of empty narrowboats in Blisworth to break into and turn into squats. Turn up at your boat to find a halal slaughtering going on inside it, sheep's blood spurted all over the ceiling, walls and floor.
Will someone at Border Control be sacked and fined 2000 Pounds for each illegal they have just let in? I mean, that's what they do to lorry drivers with illegals found clinging to the axles.

That's the worst aspect of it, they expect us to act as border control, and fine us massive amounts of money when we are caught out, I have read of drivers who have lost their homes through it. Personally, much as I miss a long trip abroad, I just won't do it any more, I have twice found myself in extremely violent confrontations with stowaways which I only won because I was armed, and I wouldn't push my luck by risking a third time. For a bloke on his own, in his 50s, to be confronted by four twenty-something Somalians in the middle of nowhere is not exactly a pleasant experience.

And Border Control are all crowded into their little hut watching Emmerdale whilst outside truck windscreens and mirrors are getting smashed. Still, they DO look tough in their uniforms! Lorry drivers are an easy target, they all have addresses in the UK and bank accounts which Customs can freeze. Somalis not so easy - they've all thrown their passports away and all claim to be 'children' - and anyway, they look scary, so better not even go near them! Hold on - Somalis? I thought they wuz all Syrian refugees? Shurely shome mishtake?

I know what nationality they were, but don't see any reason or need to say. The point is, that's a fair number to get through border control, without being noticed. It needs to be sorted out, some were kids. This is just not acceptable. There has to be a better system that works fairly. Christ, it can't be that hard, we are a bloody island Ffs.

"some were kids"
If you mean under the age of 45, yes, you're right!

If some of them were kids; them and their parents will be entitled to emergency accommodation that very day. Hey presto! yet another brit trudges off to the nearest bridge with a selection of cardboard boxes he or she nicked from outside Tesco.

They are still chasing some about. One of the locals has just reported seeing a group at the tunnel car park.

No answer, he must be out with a flaming torch, rottie and pitchfork.
