Stop The Invasion

Spain's disaster provides a warning.

Absolute madness.

At least 60,000 people crossed into the Spanish territory of Ceuta in a single day.

This mayhem has shocked Europe - and comes following the left-wing Spanish Government’s decision to offer an amnesty to those in the country illegally.

That process has seen 1.2million people apply already.

But it also clearly sent out a message and the end result was complete bedlam.

The response across Europe was clear. France’s Jordan Bardella addressed the crisis by saying:

“By regularizing hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants, Spain's socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has opened the doors of Europe to all dangers.

“The result is clear: for several days now, thousands of migrants have been flooding into the Ceuta enclave. Tomorrow, they will be on our streets, against the will of the French people. The Government must urgently strengthen controls at the land border with Spain.

“In power, we will defend a reform of Schengen limiting free movement to European citizens only, and we will expel undocumented immigrants: it is time to send the signal that France and Europe no longer accept mass immigration.”

Whilst Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni announced that:

“The Government has decided to temporarily suspend the free movement regime provided for by Schengen in maritime and air connections with Spain, reintroducing border controls.

”This is an extraordinary measure, adopted to safeguard national security and prevent possible repercussions for our Nation.

“The measure will be kept in force only for the time necessary, with particular attention to limiting any impact on summer tourist flows. In parallel, Italy is ready to support every European initiative to assist Spanish institutions as needed to restore full control of the Union's external borders and to address the ongoing situation with determination.

”Defending borders means defending the safety of citizens, combating irregular immigration, and striking at the criminal networks that traffic human beings.”

In terms of Britain, it is crazy that Andy Burnham became Prime Minister without real scrutiny as to any kind of plan on border security.

Immigration remains the number one issue in this country. As Ipsos recently confirmed:

“The July 2026 Ipsos Issues Index shows that immigration continues to be seen as the top issue facing Britain, with the economy in second place and the NHS and inflation both third.

“Fieldwork took place between 1 and 8 July, before the appointment of Andy Burnham as UK Prime Minister.

“Forty-three per cent of Britons identify immigration as a key concern, an increase of four percentage points since June and the highest percentage recorded this year, although 41% were also concerned in January, February and May.

“The economy remains second on 30%, although this represents a seven-percentage-point drop since June and is the lowest score for this issue since July 2025 (also 30%).”

So what’s next? Well there is now a proper debate underway as to how the madness of the illegal migrant boats can be stopped.
