Yeah. They should be fined £10k a person, the same as lorry drivers are that bring a stowaway over.

For every life they save?

For every life they save?

Lives were not in danger bobbing about on a dinghy in the middle of the channel on a good weather day. Nobody forced them out there, did they?

Lives are always in danger bobbing about in the middle of The Channel in an unreliable, overcrowded dinghy, piloted by an amateur - yes.

Nobody forced them out there, did they?

I'm not sure what possesses them to take on such a perilous journey, but they are not on a pleasure cruise, no.

Perhaps, just perhaps, someone or even their own common sense should tell them not to pay money to a criminal smuggler gang and to stay in the safe country they have made it to (after passing through other safe countries) and to not risk their lives crossing the channel in an overcrowded dinghy piloted by an amateur, don’t you think?

I'm not sure what possesses them to take on such a perilous journey…

Lying Schmuk. I do. So do you. So do most people. Stop pretending.

Good idea.

Lying Schmuk

Do you think anybody disagrees with that. Or argues against it?

Irrelevant.

It implies that people only travel to the UK and nowhere else.

The truth is that's it's a world wide issue

Entirely relevant.

It implies nothing of the sort.

That was in reply to a post about illegal entrants reasons for small boat crossing to the U.K. Please keep on topic.

Nosey knows why. I know why. You know why. Why can’t you two stop pretending you don’t know the real reason why some people head here.

A comment that matches the intelligence level of yer average Reform supoorter.

Nope

It implies nothing of the sort.

Of course it does

Once you understand the topic it might be easier

Nosey knows why. I know why. You know why. Why can’t you two stop pretending you don’t know the real reason why some people head here.

So why is it a world wide issue?

 

[Mottie]

Mottie, you said it was entirely weather dependent.

So when zero came over a period of 28 days you said “weather”

Now when 800+ arrive suddenly it’s weather dependent.

Don’t take my word for it.

More than 800 migrants cross English Channel in December record

The 803 arrivals - a record for a December day - brings the total number this year to 41,455.

www.bbc.co.uk

"Charities supporting migrants in Calais say there was an unusually high number of people in the makeshift camps in northern France for this time of year, wanting to get to the UK. That follows a recent period of 28 days when no small-boat crossings were possible because of windy conditions in the Channel. Saturday was extremely calm at sea, and the smugglers - adept at studying the weather forecasts - were quick to load large groups of people onto overloaded dinghies".​

People who pay smuggling gangs are almost as gullible as Reform voters.

But you’re happy to see them make the crossing?
