Family, friends, understand & speak English (which I think is the commonest second language in the world for people to have). |  |

That is a huge point to disagree over. |  | |  |

Probably as it’s pretty obvious that Asylum seekers/refugees are coming to all countries in the world not just “wanting to come here” in fact there are 15 other countries in Europe alone with more. |  |

Not true , we are below average compared to Europe for asylum application per head of population. So yes while we receive some most of Europe receive more. |  |

Fair point, but we are a little more difficult to get to than most other countries in Europe, what with us being an island and also in many cases a long distance away compared to others. There is no doubt that we are seen as a 'good' place to get to, which is weird given the state we ate in. |  |

Better than wherever the individual has come from And I didnt say we are better, I said we are seen as better, otherwise why take the risk |  |

You find it weird that people would rather live in the UK then a war zone? I know things aren't the best in the UK at the moment but surely its not got that bad? |  | |  |

Germany and France take many more asylum seekers than Britain. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. |  |
