I presume whomsoever aerial filmed the piles of ex-illegals’ collection of flotation devices will be visited by Kent/Sussex/Hants Plod and interviewed as to their failure to comply with the lockdown farce, just as was Nigel Farage when he embarrassingly drew attention to the continued unarmed invasion of UK territory.

This picture of the various boats can only draw the attention of the UK taxpayer as to the waste of dosh being shovelled towards our French “allies” who are being paid to stop the traffic at the point of origin.

Latest quoted figure for illegal entry in 2020 is 2,900 so let’s have a round of applause for Pierre, Alphonse and his mates for their sterling (sic) efforts in French territorial waters!

There should be immediate forced deportation of these criminal entrants. No pissing about. Just ship them back to ffrance in plasticuffs and dump them in Calais harbour.

One can't help but wonder what would happen if the traffic was going in the other direction and we were perceived by the other side to be doing too little...

Sadly there are lots of (albeit legal) British migrants going the other way. The majority of them high impact, highly educated, high IQ, high net earners etc....

Give it enough time and all of our children will talk like this..



Although, given that time, all the old farts here, including me, will be dead! ;)))

Maybe there is some hope for Britain.

I hope so.

Stopping them in a humane way is not easy. Making sure they go back home fast and with a horror story to tell will help dry the flow of incoming unwanted guests

Now if Fairy Aviation still existed, a squadron of Swordfish torpedo bombers could be acquired and simply sink the rubber buggas or any other craft they are using.

Some more modern techniques.

Appalling that 'the UK authorities' have not seen fit to take action to protect our shores.

The migrants may be refugees but they also constitute threats to law and order in Britain.

Lets hope a law will be passed on January 1st 2021 stating that a request for asylum can only be made by people who are outside the UK.

Is it time to re-name the UK Border-Farce? I suggest UK Economic Migrant Rescue and Welcoming Service ?

Seriously though, I feel sorry for the poor sods who have to fish out these fit young males as they are exactly the type of person to be carrying Covid 19.

After months of HM Coastguard light twins and a military sized drone today we have an Airbus A400M or RAF Atlas quartering the area at 500 feet - some five hours now on station. Time Macron got his ass in gear rather than poncing about in Beirut - dream on; whatever happened to the first safe country they visited. How about doing Sleezyjet a favour and herding them all onto a A319 from Gatwick to Syria/Turkey. For a bit more fun they could try using Lydd.

What's the rationale behind choosing an A400M?

It's not an especially well adapted type for recce work; it's running costs will be immense.

Seems to be a hell of an expensive way to run a water taxi touting service.

Or have they lowered the rear ramp and installed a GPMG? :ymdevil:

Thanks to your taxes and the money of people with more money than brain, have made illegal immigrants the most welcome of all visitors. Once I asked a person involved on that field (we ran into each other in a frequent flyer lounge) why applications are not made overseas. His answer? It would be too complicated.

The A400 is stooging around at 400ft at around 210kts!!! Great fun for the boys (and girls). It has been busy leaving its 'snail trails'.

What we need is what we voted for, a Tory Government, this lot of wet liberals are taking lessons in being completely ineffective from the Green Party.
If Johnson can't sort this he shouldn't be Prime Minister.

Still there over 7 hours of crisscrossing our half of the Channel - but according to FR24 now at the dizzy height of 1400'.

Its big, low, noisy and military!

The people it is supposed to intimidate probably are totally unaware of its capabilities, or lack thereof.
