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.

Praise for Tony Smith “A fascinating memoir/social history of immigration control from the 1970s to today” David Goodhart, UK Policy Exchange. “I can think of no better person to write about this subject than Tony Smith.” Theresa May MP, former UK Prime Minister. “A candid account of life at the sharp end by a man who rose from the front line to the very top of the UK Border Force” Sir Mark Sedwill, former UK Cabinet Secretary and National Security Adviser. “A ringside role in dealing with the fallout from some of the worst terrorist attacks in history.” Charles Hymas, Home Affairs Editor, Daily Telegraph.
