Chris Philp: “Threats to elected representatives are threats to democracy.”

Instead of trying to train these mainly young, male illegal immigrants behave in a civilised way towards women, they should be deported.

If they’re serious about fixing this and ending public anger, they need to get serious about the measures – leave the ECHR (European Convention on Human Rights) and deport illegal immigrants as soon as they arrive.

This should also be a wake-up call for the government because it's not just those protesters in Dover and Portsmouth who feel so angry about large-scale illegal immigration. It is millions and millions of people up and down this country…

The surest way to empty the accommodation is to make plain that nobody who crosses the Channel gets to stay.
