Fifteen illegal immigrants have been found in a lorry heading for Northamptonshire, the UK Border Agency has reported.
It said the group was caught after sneaking into the Northampton-bound lorry which was carrying a load of light bulbs.

Agency officials based in Calais, France, sniffed out the group of Iraqis, Afghans and Indians with a hi-tech carbon dioxide probe.

All 15 men were handed over to the French authorities after being discovered in the Polish vehicle, said a UKBA spokeswoman said.

IF you actually read the story you will fond they were found in Calais. As in Calais, FRANCE.

they never got to the UK.

wonder what the french authorities will do?
probably let them go to try again.

Thought the asylum process was you apply in the first free country you come to - Whats so wrong with France, many Brits ould give their eyeteeth to move there and get away from Gordy Brown and his stealth taxes!!!

Wonder when the French will start sending Brits back, found hiding in lorries to the south of france

(yes his post is a bit tongue-in-cheek!)
