This has less to do with Brexit, and more to do with trauma from the Novichok poisonings in Salisbury and the earlier Polonium attack. I'm quite surprised that we haven't seen stronger controls on Russians in the UK, especially as we've been busy making ourselves targets for the last week.
- mytailorisrich 5y agoNo, it really is the continuation of 2015, Brexit, Calais, etc. I.e. the government wants to be seen as tough on immigration because that's what its grassroots support wants. Now, of course the sea border is very poorly secured so my guess is simply that we'll see more Ukrainians in Calais attempting to cross by sea. As soon as they reach the English coast they'll be happy to be welcomed by the police and to claim asylum, and will never be deported in the current situation.
