Interestingly whilst we are pratting around giving Political Asylum to anyone who can walk through the tunnel and agonising over a couple of hundred chancers who have fetched up at Calais the USA is kicking out nearly half a million unwanted 'immigrants' a year (which co-incidentally just happens to be the estimate for the number in London overstaying, illegally here and working in breach of landing conditions)
