The article I read stated it is the policy of the French Authorities to shadow, but not interfere with, any vessels once launched from the French beaches
Which begs the questions
1) what are we paying the fucking frogs for?
2) are the frogs on the fucking take from the smugglers ?
3) is it not time to invade the french beaches and act ?

I heard someone say in a news report today that the French navy shadow migrant boats across the Channel but will not attempt to stop them or intervene unless they get into difficulties*. At which point I shouted at the screen 'so why the hell do we go out looking for them'? * I suspect if the French navy did see a migrant boat in difficulties they would contact the RNLI or UK Border Force. If the French Navy picked migrants up in the channel I imagine they would have to take them back to France, which would not please Macron or the EU. |

I understand a French vessel did intervene and rescue, and return to French soil, the occupants of a boat that got into difficulty ‘very close to the beach’
But I also suspect you have the measure of them in their likely actions further out.

And the woke lefty arseholes who run the RNLI order our volunteers to rush to these illegal incoming dinghys and treat this fucking dross as tho they were welcome guests. |

I think we have to face facts. There is no intention to deal effectively with stopping this invasion. The necessary actions needed to stop it should have been, and could have been, taken months, if not years, ago. We will see it continue for the coming year, we will see it top 80,000, there will be some success with stopping smugglers but no more than tinkering at the edges to gain headlines and offer some sort of salve to the electorate. Decisive action will not be taken that will stop it but decisive action in terms of amnesties and leave to remain will be taken and the hotels will gradually empty. Goodbye Britain it was nice knowing you but it will be gone by the end of this decade. Just a thought on D Day we put ashore 175,000 men. We are almost halfway there, but they are coming here. |

Well, the frogs want shot of the problem, so they let the illegals sail, so it becomes our problem. We need to get them flown out, and if it means dropping out of any convention or court etc.. then so be it. |

Having most of the key positions in your national government occupied by immigrants or the offspring of recent immigrants wouldn't seem to be the optimum strategy for dealing with invasions of yet more unwanted immigrants.

I agree, I think we have to accept that the left leaning Home Office is in charge, not the government. Sunak talks as if the cross channel invasion is something new, but it isn't. He is just another conservative prime minister who is promising to stop it, as Boris Johnson did, as Theresa May did, as David Cameron did. I think you are right, goodbye Britain it was nice knowing you. Thanks to the political elite this country will never be the same again. |

The 'political elite' wouldn't be in the position they are if the GBP didn't fall for their patter every election time.
"I have seen the enemy and he is us"

"I have seen the enemy and he is us" I think you are too harsh on the electorate. They wish to participate in the main and wish to believe that the political class are generally well intentioned if often misguided. I think the nails in the coffin were post Blair where before Blair immigration was not generally wanted at the level it was but was broadly accepted, mainly because it did not directly affect most people. Post Blair the electorate see it is uncontrolled and there is no doubt that this added to the Leave vote. Farage made the mistake of stepping down candidates to give Boris a clear field as if he had not there may have been a political upheaval, or at least the start of one. The GBP have however been let down maybe one time too many. That remains to be seen |

One day in the 1990s I was in a cafe in London. A group of a least a dozen people at nearby tables were loudly complaining about immigrants/refugees coming here and taking their jobs. White "racists"? Nope ... they were all Asians of Indian origin who had been here for decades.
