Agree. Shame France has loads of french people.

They are all also paying for tens of thousands (could be hundreds of thousands) of illegal immigrants. They have basically been invaded but our media does not report it. A thousand from Calais a day, try ten thousand from North Africa and only getting worse as Tunisia, Morocco and Algeria are also falling apart. I can't imagine Greek bus drivers getting 50k but a bus driver in Ireland would need it. And then no where near be able to get a mortgage, and barely afford rent. Much like the UK - probably worse.

Internation maritime law cannot trump the right of a nation to protect its borders.
Sooner or later we will have to do this more seriously when the numbers swell, as they surely will.

Let's not let the relatively small numbers of boat people arriving now disguise the enormous amount of people that are currently coming here legally or by other means every year.

That is the real threat to our way of life.

I actually have a shortage of these very welcome people.

Rooms allocated to the Home Office are nearly always vacant.

Always found them polite not the slightest trouble.

To see them setting out on their journey makes me proud I hope their lives go well here.

This made me laugh. Would you care to define 'our way of life'? Are the immigrants going to cause the destruction of all carbon based lifeforms or just those infected with patriotic syphilis?

One would presume a certain amount of the boats could be tracked by radar. Local enforcement is doing nothing, as people like the Mayor of Calais has demonstrated on several occasions. One has to suspect that Macron cares little also. I expect the French are happy to get rid plus piss Britain off at the same time. Two birds with one stone.
