Changing Borders: A Kingdom Unlocked
Tony Smith CBE spent his career managing our increasingly
threatened UK border controls, from junior immigration officer to
Head of the UK Border Force. He spent more than four decades
in the front line of the conflict between those who argue for open
borders and free movement and those whose focus is on building
barriers. He played a prominent role in managing security on both
sides of the Atlantic after the 9/11 attacks in North America. Along
the way he has worked constantly to make controls more efficient,
better informed and fairer, yet less vulnerable to abuse. After
retirement in 2013, he became a prominent media spokesman
on border control issues, from tackling organised immigration
crime, human smuggling and terrorist travel to managing borders
through Brexit and beyond. This is his story.
