Nobody said anything about rights. These are humans. I don't think it's fair to assume their motivations are solely to be a thorn in your side and take from you.
Can you imagine having to leave your country, settling in a place where you don't speak the language? France == England, for all they know. Maybe the only thing they know is in an equally foreign place across the channel. I am attempting to explain a possible motivation for returning to Calais besides them all being 'ungrateful fuckers.'
I know you don't want them there. I get/understand that. What I am suggesting is take a step back from hating all of them so you can see that they are just humans trying to live and cling to anything familiar. If they get turned away from Calais, then they will have to settle in France. Hopefully they will be successful there.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
