How do you ship 5000 people a day to say Mali or some other war torn place? You cant just dump them off the coast of Lybia, we aint Trump (yet).

Plus most dont have papers and can easily claim coming from war place (which many do, but I suspect most are economical migrants). This isnt easy to solve, look what Australia is doing (detaining immigrants in Papua IIRC in bad conditions to scare others).

You wait 3 days and ship 15000 on a single livestock carrier. The trip will take a while but will be "cheap" and efficient. For example Italy had about 126k immigrants last year so one big ship every month could have solved the issue. For immigrants who refuse to provide documentation/identificatiin you can just dump them on an isle like Australia is doing. After all nobody is forcing them to conceal their identity. I'm pretty sure that after a while less and less people will be willing to spend their money and resources knowing they will be deported back. At least the economic immigrants. The less are deported the more will come.

Your comments advocating for using what comes downnto cattle waggons to get rid of a certain group of people are frankly despicable.

Thanks but no, we learned how Hitler transferred people undesirable to him and we can definitely do better... Plus you didn't answer how do you want to return them to places like Mali, Niger or Central african republic, there ain't a ship sailing there, better check google maps before commenting.
