Shocking moment Boat Illegal migrant reveals true intentions for coming to UK in chilling four words

A migrant hoping to enter Britain by crossing the English Channel in a small boat has made a shocking statement about what he plans to do when he arrives in the country.

The Iranian man told an undercover reporter that he wanted to join a gang in Britain and become involved in criminal activities, including drugs and violence.

The conversation was secretly recorded during an investigation by the Daily Express at a migrant camp near Dunkirk, France, in June this year.

During the conversation, the man claimed he had lived in Denmark for 29 years and had a criminal record there. However, he believed British authorities would not be able to find out about his criminal past.

The undercover reporter asked him whether he was planning to work on a cannabis farm when he arrived in Britain.

But the man gave a different answer.

“No, no. Gang,” he replied.

When the reporter asked him to explain what he meant, the migrant said: “Drug, fight, you know, stab, shoot.”

His comments raised serious concerns about his intentions and what could happen if he managed to enter Britain.

The man also explained why he wanted to come to the UK instead of staying in another European country.

According to him, Britain’s decision to leave the European Union made the country a better option because he believed he would not be sent back to Denmark under European asylum rules.

He claimed his criminal record had already stopped him from settling in other European countries.

He also said he had family members living in Switzerland but could not settle there because of his past.

When asked whether British authorities would discover his criminal history, he replied: “Yeah, yeah. But England, they cannot see.”

The Daily Express recorded the conversation as part of a wider investigation into people-smuggling operations in northern France.

Reporters visited migrant camps near Dunkirk, where people were waiting for an opportunity to cross the English Channel and enter Britain.

During the investigation, one undercover reporter pretended to be a migrant looking for a way to reach the UK.

The reporter managed to arrange a boat crossing with a suspected people smuggler in just two hours.

This raised further concerns about how quickly criminal networks could organise dangerous journeys across the Channel.

The investigation also involved conversations with other migrants waiting in the camps.

Another Iranian man told reporters that he had spent more than 16 years living illegally in the Netherlands before being removed from the country.

He said he wanted to travel to England because he was afraid of being sent back to Iran.

The investigation was led by Daily Express Investigations Editor Zak Garner-Purkis.

The findings have raised questions about how British authorities check the backgrounds of people arriving in the country by small boats.

There are also concerns about whether people with criminal records in other European countries could enter Britain without their past being discovered.

However, the Iranian man’s statements about his criminal history and plans to join a gang were his own claims. The report did not establish whether he had actually committed the crimes he mentioned or whether he eventually reached Britain.

The investigation has added to the ongoing debate about border security, illegal Channel crossings and the challenges facing authorities trying to stop dangerous individuals from entering the UK.
