@bereal6590 No. They can apply for asylum anywhere they want. Haven’t you grasped that yet? Safe country rules no longer apply to the UK as we are a third country and NO LONGER IN THE EU.

@get_a_life_weirdos We aren’t in the EU anymore. Please try and keep up.

@michaelwhite2393 They are applying for asylum. They can do that anywhere they want. The only reason record numbers are coming to the UK is as the lady said we are no longer in the EU.

@Lynda-z9v You are wrong. We can’t send them back to France as we are a third country and no longer in the EU. Safe country rules don’t apply to the UK anymore.

@boxtradums0073 Safe country rules don’t apply to the UK as thanks to Brexit we are now a third country. That’s the reason they are coming in record numbers.

Just look at all the comments from plonkers STILL going on about safe country nonsense. Any wonder by letting these people vote that the UK is in such a mess!

@get_a_life_weirdos You are the one that’s said they don’t understand why they can’t be sent back to France, not me. Forget being a weirdo, you are clearly thick as shite.

@MVUK358 It’s the fact that the UK isn’t in the EU anymore. We are a third country thanks to the Brexit sheeple. France no longer have to accept them back.

@wor53lg50 Essentially, he’s correct.

⁠ @Andrew-tx9jy Ireland will need to send them directly back to France unless they get to Ireland via the UK then they can’t send them back here as we are a third country.
