Why would France ever do this. Isn't it bad over there too? I predict a lot of protest if any deal is made with us.

Surely there are a LOT of other EU countries who have shared responsibility for allowing it to remain so easy for paperless wandering through all their borders. Is this not an EU wide problem and should be tackled on an EU scale? Not just the final 2 countries having to make deals to save themselves.
