No Borders is a network of groups and individuals who fight against borders and immigration controls. We believe in freedom of movement for all.
- from your link.
No Borders is an anti-capitalist movement. Borders are created by, and serve, capitalist elites. Borders are used to divide and rule us, for example to set "citizens" competing against "illegal" workers, and to impose the law of the market. Capitalist markets, nation-states, and their borders, have grown up together in history, and still rely on each other today.

Orban Accuses Soros of Stoking Refugee Wave to Weaken Europe
Rights groups have criticized Orban for building a razor-wire fence on the border, tightening asylum laws and boosting his support among voters with anti-immigrant rhetoric. Soros, who was born in Hungary and is one of the biggest philanthropists in eastern Europe via his foundations and university, gives grants to organizations that provide legal assistance to asylum seekers.
Soros said in an e-mailed statement that a six-point plan published by his foundation helps “uphold European values” while Orban’s actions “undermine those values.”
.
“His plan treats the protection of national borders as the objective and the refugees as an obstacle,” he said in the statement. “Our plan treats the protection of refugees as the objective and national borders as the obstacle.”

Yeaaa it's amazing how they want to hang out in places like England (border? Try "island") and other civilized countries but never seem to pop up in the armpit nations of the world to try and get rid of their borders, isn't?
Then again, after a hard day's protesting, who doesn't want to be able to pop into the pub, have a beer, then go home and watch BBC in their government subsidized housing.

So, just so i understand you. If YOU were fleeing your country because of war and violence and in search of a better life, you would NOT go to the nicer, first world, modern, clean country that welcomes you, but instead you would consider going to a country that you will have a hard time finsing work in, accomodation, and a general helping hand to start your life.
Are you seriously questioning why they choose to come here?

What an utterly, incomprehensibly idiotic thing to say.
The Contracting States shall not impose penalties, on account of their illegal entry or presence, on refugees who, coming directly from a territory where their life or freedom was threatened in the sense of Article 1, enter or are present in their territory without authorization, provided they present themselves without delay to the authorities and show good cause for their illegal entry or presence
