Reuters filmed French police watching a dingy with 40 onboard, including children, yesterday just outside Calais. So not sure what help the police needed, but the evidence they're doing little as it's continuing today.

what are the 2 police officers really supposed to do, you cant stop people if they want to risk the crossing, are we expecting the french police to shoot them?

Nope, their second language is English, that's why they head for the UK. Meanwhile the French take in far more than the UK. In fact the UK is ranked 14th in Europe for the intake of these unfortunate people.

Reuters didn't say how many police were in situ.

Correct and the fact that France takes in and settles far, far more than the UK makes it even more of a no brainer in moral terms. Unfortunately the brexit mantra of chest beating and attempting to give the UK a 'bully boy' image by the current 'government' has caused the death of women, children and even very sadly a pregnant woman. Utterly shameful and in full view of the rest of the world.

The people interviewed by France 24 this afternoon preparing to cross were from the Central African Republic.

Do the police in France not have radios then??

Without wanting to sound too tough on these poor people, at the end of the day no one is forcing them into these blow up dinghys. Although desperate it’s their call. Why not stay in France? No one is chasing them out.

Alas Brittania no longer rules, and the waves and rivers are contaminated.

The British PM cannot even get 30 fishing licences issued.

As for little boats and Dunkirk nobody will be expecting that, you must be joking.

What a lot of crap.

The only people who have caused the deaths are those that foolishly choose dangerous voyages to Britain and the scum that facilitate them.

What is shameful is your use of human tragedy to push your anti British agenda.

your hypocrisy has no bounds as per usual in the same way as your hatred for anyone with non white skin. Epic fail yet again in your part but no surprise on that front.

Wish we had a proud and blameless history like Germany.

Once again, the question has to be asked....what are you doing in a country you clearly hate?

The whole expanse is out there for you.

Yet here you came running.....only to continually slag off the hand that feeds you.

Funny how 'racism' works in your head.

The rules here are softer than in France...that's why.

They need to listen to Spicy, the UK is terrible....so follow him to wherever the promised land is.

At the end of the day the EU/France don't want them and neither do we. To attempt a crossing during winter just shows how desperate they are. WE just got to tighten our immigration laws, deport immediately on failure of application or ship them too the Falkland Islands, still UK.

You always talk an endless stream of bollocks and have no justification for saying that whatsoever.

Like a couple of others, you resort to baseless slurs because you have no cogent argument.

Nope, simply 'resorting' to the truth. Tough luck if it hurts.

Won’t be able to, Portugal probably have had their 420 applicants already (. 2020 figure as posted by Spicy).
Perhaps Orange can explain why Portugal doesn’t offer to take more per capita.
Still with the amount of chest thumping racists in the UK it is a wonder that anyone wants to come here when Portugal is waiting with open arms

Fine, so let's see you produce some posts that back up your drivel.

I'm very patient, take your time.
