No they are not disposable objects, but then neither are they the responsibility of the UK.....they are in most cases economic migrants....they want a better life.
It is just that they are going about it in the wrong way.

These families pay the people smugglers goodness knows how much money, they put their lives in the hands of men who care nothing for their welfare and safety.
The answer Does NOT lie in Calais. The answer lies in finding those who exploit these families.
It lies in turning back the boats. Using gunboats if necessary. I think it was Gordon who said that Australia has the right answer....he was right, they do.
They have the right answer in ALL aspects of border control....no question about it!

I think that if you were a lorry driver who had been intimidated, inconvenienced and had your own livelihood threatened then you would (maybe) see the problem in a different light.
These people who want to come to the UK have nothing to contribute, and only see it as a ticket to an easy life paid for by our taxes.
