But I'm sure you knew that.
Most are not detained. If the rules are followed, they should be registered within 24hrs and then usually moved to hotels or other accommodation. And you can’t really do much scrutiny on someone you know nothing about. Most people arriving in such a way don’t have all their paperwork in perfect order if any at all.
They are not processed nor scrutinised until their cases are examined. Right now the UK operates with a huge backlog with the Home Office reporting it takes on average one to three years to process an application.

This wasn’t some nasty far right post more a critique of a shambolic system.
There is also a reported 647,000 unregistered illegal migrants (Asylum is not illegal) in the UK so those are people in British society without any right or checks carried out according to a GLA report.
