The immigration stats for 2022 are skewed by Ukrainian refugees and HKers fleeing to UK.
Still, there must be many reasons why asylum seekers in Calais are trying to get to the UK, when they passed through a number of EU countries first.
- netsharc 4y agoIt feels like asylum seekers might not have the best information about the "best" place to settle, maybe they all think the UK is it, or a lot of them are going there because they have a contact (friend/relative) who can get them settled. I'd be curious to see what percentage end up where in Europe as they cross the continent, to see how many of them go all the way to Calais to try to cross to the UK.
