Immigration

Well, if you can't stop something, then presumably you just roll over and let it continue to happen.

If it hasn't happened, maybe because they don't want it to happen?

Why would France want to have the problem, if it can unload some people onto the UK? If Britain got really tough then France could then have momentum to get tough with its neighbours to stop arrivals at their border. But that would mean a fundamental clash with the EU's free movement...as I imply, they don't want a solution.
France already has a problem. Their major cities have ghettos full of immigrants.
 
Much more likely that the numbers would increase because of the lack of restrictions.
What restrictions? They would stop coming because they would no longer receive the largesse that attracts them here in the first place.

Because it isn’t the “largesse”. It’s the picture that’s been sold to them of the opportunity to work and build a life for themselves. Any support provided is minimal and ought be very temporary before a decision on their status is made.

Remove the checks and you allow them to disappear into the black economy or turn to crime as their only way to survive. The checks and the accommodation restrict that from happening.

Your idea would not stop anyone. It would make things worse.

It's largesse to put people up in hotels. The French don't see the need to do it.

Of course it would stop them coming. Without the ridiculous level of support that they receive they would not come. There are no checks, just massive incentives for them to continue coming. Many of them get involved in the black economy and crime anyway, so what do we have to lose.
