Re: Priti Patel issues orders to turn them boats around

Sounds like the measures to joint measures to deal with this broke down with France on Wednesday .

I wonder if France has any interest in stopping this .

I am baffled why so many migrants travel through so many wonderful Europe countries to get to us, many say we treat folk dreadfully ??

The mayor of Calais summed it up for me when interviewed a month or so ago ( "if you didn't make it so inviting they would not cross" ) so it begs the question how are they treated on mainland Europe and France , what don't they get in France that forces them to our shores , are they treated that badly , are they victimised ??

What's your solution? Or do you just ignore it and insult anyone with a different view or who tries to address and acknowledge issues?

What would you do?

Are you saying this thread was about solutions and trying to address and acknowledge issues ?

I thought it was a rant from a Sun reader

So no solution then? No ideas? No proposals?

Lots of words, lots of virtue-signalling. No actual solution?

invite them all in, give them shelter and safety and show them compassion.
then train them to drive an HGV.

It’s a PR exercise, she’s got no power to turn them back in International waters. The French will not stop them leaving their waters and once they're over the dotted line they’re the UKs responsibility and since we left the EU we can no longer deport them

Your first four words should have been a thread closer Des.

And yes, this is a part of the global human trafficking trade. It absolutely is.

And no, not everyone arriving in boats is fleeing war.

And no, they aren't all good, honourable people. Some are. Some aren't. Most destroy ID so we have no idea.

There is a process and this isnt it.

We all know, just some are willing to address it, and some are happy with fingers in ears insulting people and shouting racist.

It’s not my job to come up with a solution is it but I’m not a callous pricks I wouldn’t turn them around at sea and send them back. I’d take them in and properly process them and then see what the best course of action is.

“Most” ripping up IDs etc shows the exact sort of bollocks you’ve been lapping up.

Also she is a proper nasty **** so this attitude should be taken with everything that comes out of her mouth.

Again..

Any proposal? NO
Personal Insult? YES
Virtue signal? RECEIVED
Problem solved? NO.

I sense you have no idea what is happening on the ground at all. Nor care.

Whereas the human traffickers friend here sounds like a right nice chap.

People have different opinions about it.

On the one hand, it's allowing desperate people to leave France to come to the UK.

On the other its facilitating a global human trafficking programme that is one of the most obnoxious trades on earth.

The reality is it's both, but people should be able to talk about it without people shutting it down.

Personally, I think it's right to rescue people from warzones - we evacuated thousands from Afghanistan, and it's right to have a liberal immigration programme, but you cant just turn up and enter a country from another safe one. That isn't right, however much you want it.

so target the criminals, not the victims.

its ****ing shameful and Patel needs to have a long period of introspection.

I literally said I don’t know how to solve the problem but treating asylum seekers like criminals and breaking my international law is not the way to go about it.

The fact you use a phrase like “virtue signalling” sums you up. How the **** can someone virtue signal anonymously? Which part of that is virtue signalling in your mind?

If you think this is why they’re doing this I’ve got a bridge to sell you, you disingenuous c*nt.

Are the human traffickers here just the people supplying the boats for the asylum seekers or have you evidence of a different type of human trafficking going on in large numbers via boats on the channel?

All reports say it's against Maritime Law

Don't see how it's ever going to be done
