Re: Britain outside the EU
Boris is a gob-shite fool. Fancy crapping on his responsible minister like that.
However, if he consulted first with the appalled Patel, and if she agreed, then she's just as bad.

I suspect Macron was actually pleased by the open letter, he can increase his re-election prospects by saying he will stand up to an unreasonable UK and get rhe country behind him. Then do something unreasonable himself and Boris can play the same game.

The reality is that the proportion of all migrants in Europe attempting to cross the channel is broadly the same as it has been for quite a while. There are, however, lots more of them in Europe in absolute terms, hence more of them are crossing.

Then we need a practical approach to what we can do, which in part, in my mind would entail allowing people to apply in their country of origin & has already been stated going after the gang masters who control the trafficking
It wont stop everything, but i would hope it would be a start.

Don't disagree, my point is that, certain media outlets are focusing on a small quantity of french officers failing to do their job, rather than the hundreds/thousands that do. said media outlets are trying to imply that this is normal behaviour.

People in the "centre" of political views tend not to say things like that…

Talking of Media, what about those French journalists, nicely positioned on the beach for the story (inc photos) of those migrants dragging a boat down to the water and then setting off for 'utopia'
I wonder if they - as a genuinely concerned person would - immediately inform the police . . . or wait until they have the story and shots they were after?
