We would lose control of our borders

Already have, regardless. A multitude of other problems stem from this one thing and it's (way beyond) time to get really tough.

Alright, we would lose even the potential to have control over our borders (and the ability to come out of the "human rights" stuff).

" the "human rights" stuff" That has to be a priority not just to address immigration but also to deal with another issue with travelling vermin known for fly tipping, rogue trading and illegal construction.

We were not part of Schengen and we would continue to not be if we rejoined the EU. And illegal immigration is now a bigger problem than when we were in the EU, because as part of the EU we had the right to automatically return illegal immigrants to other EU states they had come from. This is why the small boats problem has got huge since we left the EU, Boris didn't negotiate right of return as part of our exit treaty. Civil servants did warn him what could happen, but he went for the Rwanda scheme instead as a deterrent.
