In theory no, as an "illegal" they have no rights to claim anything. As an asylum seeker, different story as they will be catered for. That said though "Asylum" should be claimed within the first safe country they enter to escape their persecution/repression.
And since when did we have adjoining borders with Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan or any number of African countries, for that matter & I'm pretty sure they didn't wash up on our beaches in a rubber dingy after navigating the North Atlantic & the English channel.
