Richard PearsonHow come you, as many, are always comparing legal and illegal entries? Is that a specific British phenomen that you can't differentiate between the two? I rest my case as I find you comment futile. PS. I doubt the illegal immigrants get the first class treatment here as they get in the UK.
Should we expect that these demands are enforced on those arriving with one way tickets from south of the border, or will they on the other hand be offered free board and lodging and health care whilst they are here ?
And... to the extent that Palma airport's electronic passport gates are working, i.e. most of the time, immigration in the "British" Terminal A at PMI is manned/processed automatically via machines , so checking passengers' financial status ain't gonna happen!
Surely you're aware that this is nothing more than a line item on the list of things that a Frontex customs agent *can* demand if they have reason to believe the person entering a Schengen frontier is dodgy in some way. Britain never was a Schengen subscriber, so it would apply anyway, Brexit or not. Still, I doubt most British tourists seem dodgy, so I think (most of) you need not lose any sleep. But it makes good "fury and outrage" click bait fodder, even if it's meaningless in any practical sense.
