1. Our priority is to put the rights of the settled population above the rights of illegal immigrants. Nothing else will work until we do.
   
   
2. Exit UN Refugee Convention and European Convention on Human Rights to ensure primacy of UK law over and above all undemocratic edicts of global institutions.
   
   
3. Legislate to ensure that our immigration policy can withstand all legal challenges from the migrant support industry.
   
   
4. Create post of Secretary of State for Migration and Population, removed from the post of Home Secretary.
   
   
5. Repeal the Human Rights Act 1998 and support a UK Bill of Rights to make the UK Supreme Court final judicial arbiter on all immigration cases.
   
   
6. Set an immigration ceiling to include true refugees escaping oppression or war.
   
   
7. Adopt a no-nonsense policy when dealing with illegal immigrants. To stem the flow, we will change their expectations of what happens to them if they enter illegally.
   
   
8. Downgrade the existing Border Force and relieve it of all responsibility for guarding the borders. Set up a Border Guard with a fleet of in-shore vessels.
   
   
9. Build Secure Migrant Vessels to house illegals temporarily at sea. These will be container ships equipped with helicopter pads. Adapt containers as secure rooms with insulation, ventilation; barred windows and subject to all rules applying to high security prisons.
   
10. Wanted criminals identified during processing will be deported immediately.
    
    
11. Military planes to be on standby. Repatriation flights will start from secure UK military airport.
    
    
12. Border Guards or RNLI will escort dinghies or boats intercepted in Channel to a Secure Migrant Vessel and off load them at sea.
    
    
13. Border Guards will arrest illegal immigrants discovered in commercial vehicles or in the Channel Tunnel and transport them immediately to a Secure Migrant Vessel.
    
    
14. We will hold illegals on Secure Migrant Vessels for processing for a maximum of 3 days of their arrival, after which Border Guards will remove them to a Secure Migrant Camp.
    
    
15. We will build Secure Migrant Camps in the countryside quickly like nightingale hospitals. They will be subject to all rules applying to high security prisons with perimeter fencing and controlled by Border Guards or the Army. We will not allow inmates to leave, visit or mix with the settled population in nearby towns or villages.
    
    
16. We will limit detention in Secure Migrant Camps to three months maximum. Detaining them longer will risk them becoming a serious burden on the State. This is unacceptable as they will never have contributed to the UK economy, and we owe them nothing.
    
    
17. We will negotiate arrangements with any United Nations member state outside the UK that is willing to make adequate accommodation available to illegal immigrants and will accept those who we are unable to return to their own country. We will deport illegal immigrants from Secure Migrant Camps to one of these countries immediately after three months if we cannot return them to their own country.
    
    
18. After deportation back to their home country, illegals will have no route back to the UK.
