Closed petition Detain all migrants that enter the UK illegally

Detain all migrants that enter the UK illegally in detention centres. We think existing MOD bases could be used for this. Hotels are not to be used. Only process asylum applications for those arriving with documents and proof of no convictions.

More details

We think this would be a deterrent that does not reward migrants that have broken international border laws. We think undocumented migrants cost the tax payer too much.
