Well it had to happen didn't it.....

The Telegraph tells us the French think that the Brits are organising the Migrants.

Now here's the icing on the cake.

He told the Telegraph: “I’ve never seen an organised sit-in before. This is being encouraged not by human traffickers, who wish to remain discreet, but by extreme Left elements here to manipulate the migrants in the name of their ideal of imposing a country without borders or police.”

“Among these activists are quite a few Britons,” he added. “For now they have been allowed to act with total impunity. It’s time for a return to the rule of law: they need to be identified and arrested.


So let me translate that.

Thousands of illegal immigrants have broken international law as well as EU law and French law. They've destroyed property, invaded restricted areas, illegally entered vehicles and caused criminal damage.

BUT.

Now that some Brits (not all brits mark you), are helping them organise, the French are going to ACT. They're going to arrest the Brits for breaking the law and return the rule of law.

Excuse me? The law is being broken every single day and they are doing Not One Thing to make sure it doesn't happen. Oh but when the white, acceptable, majority, Brits get involved they can act. Because nobody will dare say that it's wrong to arrest them.

I give up. I wonder if I could make enough money to migrate (legally), to the US. I'd say Australia and like Australia but Mrs S would never go. I'd like Canada too but she'd never go there either....

The French are blaming us, surely not? ;) :roll:

I would emigrate if I was young enough, or rich enough.

Suff, come to NZ, you'll feel right at home in the Sth island.

This is of course what is completely wrong with the PC world. Don't address the problem, cause you might offend someone

Weka,

About 18 years ago we seriously discussed that as an option. But I didn't have the points, we had one Grandson and the thought of tearing ourselves out of the family in that way and so far away was difficult.

Then about 3 years later our middle daughter became pregnant with our second Grandson and only found out after the relationship had ended. We wound up with a new son in our home for 2 years before I insisted they move out. It caused a great strife and we actually bought a house which our daughter could rent from us to resolve the situation.

As you can imagine, that bond could not be broken (and makes balancing the Grandkids difficult even today) and all thoughts of moving so far away were shelved indefinitely. Now, sadly, I'm too old and it's too late. We make what we can but it doesn't stop me hoping and wishing for something else. Money, of course, would always help. We'd move the whole family, none of them would really complain too much given the way the UK is travelling.

I have absolutely no objection to that .....more power to the Gendamerie!

I have major objections to selectively applying the law. You either apply it or you don't and suffer the consequences.

I am utterly disgusted that thousands of people can assault their officers, invade secure areas, disrupt their services and all they do is give them toilets, electricity and a place to stay.

Then they talk about "applying the law" when some nasty Brits get involved.

Take them all or take none. But don't tell one lot it's Ok to break the law and send another to Jail because it's easy and nobody will challenge it. That way leads to Anarchy.

We hear today that one man spent 11 hours in the tunnel as he walked almost the full 50km length of it.

News outlets are passing this off as a simple intrusion by a migrant attempting to gain entry to the UK. He apparently made this "perilous" journey on Monday night to Tuesday morning. The stories then turn to the extra staff, sniffer dogs, new fencing blah, blah, blah.

Nobody is asking what a person entering the tunnel might take with them or what they could do once inside. This man's action is a major security breach. He might be nothing more than an illegal trying to gain entry, but what about future "intruders"? What could they be up to?

I do wonder how long it will be before they start building the rail equivalent of a scooter. Much easier to make the journey.

This is pretty serious now. Two people with backpacks, equipped to get into the trucks from the roof and they could blow all the tanks on the trucks and the couplings on the cars. If they were to do it in the crossover the tunnel could be shut for a year.....

Someone is simply not thinking or thinks that others won't....

I wonder if attempts were made to hide this story.

It happened on Monday/Tuesday yet it has only broken today, Friday.

Maybe somebody in Eurotunnel or the police noticed it was not being carried and wanted it aired so leaked it to the media.

Sky News has removed comments from its website and the BBC has buried it in the depths of its World- Europe pages.
