It would appear that the immigrants know exactly where they want to go but our media and politicians seem to think ENGLAND doesn't exist and it is BRITAIN where they want to go.
The Daily Express said:
/// The row flared as a new base camp was opened yesterday in Calais to help migrants illegally enter BRITAIN. ///
Shadow Immigration Minister Damian Green said:
/// “Any attempt to rebuild a camp at Calais would be a disaster for BRITAIN. ///
Philip Davies, MP for Shipley, West Yorks, said:
/// “One of the main reasons they come is because they know once inside BRITAIN their chances of being kicked out are nil.” ///
The only one to get it right was Afghani ex-student Said, 21, who said:
/// Our only ambition is to get to ENGLAND where we will claim asylum.” ///

Kromovaracun, you used the word 'Americans' and I know what you mean, and so do most people - but just you try it in front of a Peruvian or Mexican, or anyone else who thinks he's an American too and that the USA has seized the adjective for its own private use.
And to complicate matters further, here's the official Dutch tourism website:

My own suspicion is that all these options are ok. England has a rugby union team. Great Britain has a rugby league team. The United Kingdom doesn't seem to participate in sports at all. Why should an Afghan be expected to get any of this 'right' when the countries themselves can't make up their minds?
