CALL
FOR
A
UNIFIED
FRONTIER
FORCE
A
new
border
force
should
be
set
up
to
clamp
down
on
illegal
immigration
,
one
of
the
UK's
senior
police
officers
has
said
.
Sir
Chris
Fox
,
outgoing
president
of
the
Association
of
Chief
Police
Officers
said
different
agencies
had
different
objectives
.
He
called
for
a
new
force
made
up
of
police
,
special
branch
,
immigration
and
custom
officers
.
The
government
says
security
agencies
work
best
as
"
distinct
entities
"
.
Mr
Fox
said
the
frontier
force
would
have
"
total
____________________
for
all
points
of
entry
.
"
I
think
that
will
make
us
a
far
more
coordinated
organisation
against
____________________
and
illegal
entry
"
.
At
the
moment
the
agencies
involved
had
all
____________________
objectives
(
doelen
)
,
he
said
.
"
The
police
might
be
involved
in
criminality
and
may
want
people
to
come
in
so
we
can
follow
them
to
wherever
they
are
going
with
whatever
they've
got
,
to
catch
a
network
of
criminals
.
"
The
priority
for
customs
might
be
"
to
____________________
the
products
that
they
are
carrying
,
"
he
added
.
"
So
we
need
all
those
objectives
being
brought
together
with
one
organisation
that
makes
decisions
about
when
is
the
right
time
to
act
.
"
But
Immigration
Minister
T
.
McNulty
said
the
government
would
not
consider
Sir
Chris'
____________________
.
Mr
McNulty
said
:
"
UK
borders
____________________
by
the
UK
Immigration
Service
and
Customs
in
close
____________________
with
the
police
.
We
believe
that
____________________
is
more
effectively
carried
out
when
the
agencies
work
closely
together
while
remaining
distinct
from
each
other
.
The
Conservative
Party
is
also
in
favour
of
a
frontier
force
.
Their
immigration
spokesman
Damian
Green
told
BBC
News
:
"
Being
an
island
,
our
borders
ought
to
be
a
good
line
of
defence
against
____________________
,
against
drug
trafficking
,
against
a
lot
of
the
worst
international
crime
and
they
are
just
not
"
.
The
Home
Office
has
denied
it
could
have
done
more
to
____________________
the
Morecambe
Bay
,
in
which
21
____________________
from
China
were
drowned
when
caught
in
dangerously
high
tides
.
