Observations

Unfortunately the numbers above are but one element of the immigration problem being faced by the UK and many other countries. So-called ‘legal immigration’ has also been running at record levels.

One of the differences with illegal migration is the terrorist threat. When these migrants toss their identity papers and mobile phones into the water before they are picked up and transported to the southern shores of the United Kingdom, this leaves our security services with a problem.

Readers may be interested to know that the previous EU Commission President (Jean-Claude Juncker) put the direct annual cost of each migrant into the EU at €250k. Our team disagreed.

Juncker’s figure was mostly for accommodation and subsistence. This did not account for the massive costs now being experienced by member states for all the extra policing and monitoring by security services. Nor did it cover the legal costs for asylum claims, or costs such as translators in schools and hospitals, etc. Recently hundreds of German mayors simply refused to take in any more as they didn’t have the resources to deal with them.

In the UK we would need to quintuple the budget for the security services, to attempt to keep tabs on a massive and growing number of suspects. This simply hasn’t happened.

We must get reports like this out there

Reports like the one above take far longer to research, write and produce than many people realise. If they were easy, readers would see other organisations also producing these daily. However, there’s little point in the Facts4EU.Org team working long hours, seven days-a-week, if we lack the resources to promote them effectively – to the public, to MPs, and to the media. This is where you come in, dear reader.
