For those who remember this boat when it was sold to them whilst it was in Bruces. Gang jailed for smuggling immigrants to Cornwall on crumbling yacht
While the trafickers are doing time, apart from one, the 'cargo' are all still in the country. Until the UK has some ID system, there is no deterrance to wanting to get there.For those who remember this boat when it was sold to them whilst it was in Bruces.

Well, they used the 'organised crime' rules to go after a few fisherman who exceeded their quotas and stripped them of everything they owned. A bit disproportionate as they were not 'criminals' . Elsewhere (NW Spain) Fishing fleets are doing the same( often in UK waters), except they are 'friendly' with the local politicians, so no risk of comeback.Shockingly light sentences. What they should have done is seized all the assets of the perps to fund the invaders. Now the taxpayer I.e. you and i are funding this expense. We have to make sure crime doesn’t not pay, it is an economic choice to be commit these crimes. Risk/reward We have to make sure that the risks of being caught far outweigh the rewards then people simply won’t do it. We could also offer a bounty to dob people in.
Needless to say we need a Home Secretary that does not target prison population but targets crime, I want to se a politician who will declre that he will make sure that there will be a place in prison for anyone who commits a professional crime I.e. commits crime for a living.
