    I was hoping for something a bit more out there. Like offering all prospective migrants a guided tour of Birmingham.

      All immigrants who apply are allowed to enter the UK, however they have to live in Middlesbrough.

    Parliament could reduce annual illegal immigration to zero with a one-line piece of legislation: ‘All immigration is legalised’…

    I’m not suggesting we quite go that far. But any attempt to address the problem of illegal immigration needs to start off with a recognition of how 14 years of Tory home secretaries and 13 years of authoritarian New Labour home secretaries before home (the choice of home secretaries were always the worst thing about the Blair and Brown governments) have conspired to ramp up the barriers and hurdles to a regular hardworking immigrant - someone who wants to work and pay taxes and obey the law - actually being able to legally enter the UK and work.

      They should go to Rishi route and just legislate that the small boats have stopped.
