I think it’s the express today saying “£40 a week, free mobiles and a free stay in a 4 star hotel while your case is pending”. It doesn’t mention that you are basically a prisoner in the hotel and £40 a week doesn’t go far, but that’s incidental to their narrative. As appealing as it sounds I don’t think people travel halfway round the world (and risk death) for it.
what about the looney left agenda you spout???

"£40 a week, free mobiles and a free stay in a 4 star hotel while your case is pending until we get you a permanent residence sorted” isn't something you see being touted around is it.

I expect someone will say that some of the homeless have 'made themselves homeless' . . . which is obviously far different than sneaking across from France in a boat at 2am.
That's very much the right point to make.

I don't think you're right, John.

They reach the EU and choose their soft touch country. Simples. And that includes the terrorists amongst them.

If you want someone’s cooperation who is already awkward or annoyed with you, you don’t agitate that person further. Otherwise all you’re doing is flicking an angry tiger in its plums with a wet towel and then wondering why it mauls you.

Collaboration and diplomacy are required if we have are to have any chance of resolving this issue.

Running round like a small child going ‘I told you so’ will solve nothing apart from making you feel justified. And, apart from to you that’s insignificant.

"Collaboration and diplomacy"


Give us fishing rights or we will blockade your ports

. . . oh, and we want £57million to play at patrolling our beaches

So, do you lower yourself to the other sides or persons standards?

On your second point, why not protect our own borders, they are in fact ours.

They're not, but as 'we' are wanting to stop people getting into 'our' country, surely the onus is on 'us' to protect our borders ? rather than relying on a 3rd country.

There's a lot of coastline to guard in Northern France, and unless your plan is to put someone every 100m to stop them, then i don't see how this realistically works.

The same issue is happening at the US/Mexico border, despite all the money the US throw at other countries and technology.

Re: Britain outside the EU

A week or so ago when others were suggesting we would invoke Article 16, I said it was unlikely but we would seek distraction by poking the French French bear Article 16 has not been invoked and the open letter has indeed poked the French bear.

Pretty delusional in my opinion, calling the French chap a Bear . . . have you told Putin about it?

Escort, to accompany (someone or something) somewhere as an escort.

The video appears to show them stood by and to make no attempt to stop the boat leaving.

Not the same thing.
