And then "punish" the motorhome owners for negligence. No negligence fines for the Border Force missing then and/or inquiry about straight up lying about finding the stowaway later on?
lol, you couldn't make it up. Surely there's a police report stating that the couple phoned it in and is in black and white.
All this policy will do is encourage people not to report stowaways. Totally bonkers.
