I'll be first. Brexit will of course put a complete stop to this.

You must be on a wind up surely.

If Human trafficking is an illegal activity, it therefore does not adhere to laws and thus continues irrespective of a country's given border arrangements.

Does the fact that they were coming in illegally and hidden in a lorry not suggest to you there were already flouting existing border arrangements as it is? No?

Yes, and I was saying it ironically. The true irony is some will believe it.

Dear me.

Dear you what?

I’ll pay the compliment of being semi intelligent and leave it at that.

Say it isn't so.

If anything sums up the cesspool that twitter can be, it's some of the comments on this story.

I’m sure others with want argue the relative merits of political ideology on a thread highlighting the tragic consequences of human trafficking. I retract the compliment and will let you carry on.

 

[Cee Jay]

like to think any political arguments can be put aside...tragic

 

[PinzaC55]

Tragic. Pity there isn't some sort of Heat or Carbon dioxide sensor they could use to detect them at passport control.

They do use CO2 probes but they put plastic bags over their heads to try and bluff it.

Using 39 dead people to make a smart-arsed anti-Brexit comment, that’s a new low.

They came via Ireland with a Northern Irish driver. If they tighten up at Holyhead they'll just drive north to Larne and take the ferry to Scotland.

 

[pillars of hercules]

There is but sounds as if they were in some sort of sealed unit to combat a detector.

Loads go in refrigerator units.

I thought there had to be an intent for it to be murder? If he was just giving them a lift and they died accidentally then manslaughter surely? I’m sure he didn’t intend to deliver 39 corpses.
