He's Scottish.

Oh bugger, I must be slipping, I can normally spot a McChunt blindfolded.

The Paris lot came from Brussels. Yes, you're probably right, anyone serious about crossing the border would have no trouble, but removing border controls is not part of the solution.

America has pretty strict border controls yet 19 non-USA citizens managed to enter and carry out a terrorist atrocity...

Interestingly enough I was driving through Molenbeek the day after the Paris bombings, got a few strange looks I can tell you...

The smell of whisky, deep fried mars bar and shame is normally enough to give it away. Eau de Jock.

You don't have to be serious. Unless they happened to be on some arrest on sight list pretty much everyone gets across in reality, even with proper passport checks.

Border controls are at best a seen to be doing something solution rather than a doing something solution.

I'd keep that to yourself if I were you, he'll need a visa soon...

If EU migration had checks for serious offenders we would have seen a lot fewer violent crimes in the UK and we would have a lot fewer unpleasant EU citizens in prison (and we all know how hard it is to get a jail term in UK)
