You're insisting on this strawman argument.
No-one ever said the arrival of small boats was just about tides, except you.
We put you right.

Correct…..
Tidal currents profoundly affect small boat crossings in the English Channel. Navigating the 21-mile Dover Strait requires crossing some of the strongest and most complex tidal streams in Europe.

Old pugwash needs to swat up on his “coast hugging for beginners” manual. If brains were dynamite he wouldn’t have enough to blow his sailors cap off.

Tidal currents can dramatically affect an underpowered vessel in The Channel, significantly altering its steering control and overall speed. In narrow or constricted waterways, where water moves at its fastest, even moderate currents can cause a boat to drift sideways, miss intended waypoints, or struggle to make headway. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Tidal current = massive effect on who makes it across in poorly powered overcorwded small boats. Especially when coupled with other factors like wind direction etc.

Correct. The tidal currents combined with other factors can affect the numbers of successfully completed or attempted voyages.
Pugwash is drowning in his own blarney on this one.

Combined with other factors.

Engines running full astern again.

Tides make no difference to how many can cross.

 

[noseall]

Depends what other conditions they are combined with.
Tidal currents can be favourable or unfavourable so yes, it can make a difference.

In case Pugwash missed this earlier post..

Keep whining RWR, the RNLI are always grateful boyos.

What was the inflation adjusted income growth again.
Don’t forget the minus sign.

Have you got anything right on this thread.

illegals we got there. Someone who has no right to enter or remain, but do so anyway.

So those arriving by small boat are not illegal immigrants, never were, until and unless they arrive in UK and don't claim asylum.
So why do you keep calling them illegal immigrants when they're not in UK?
Those that do claim asylum are therfore asylum seekers not illegal immigrants.
So why do you keep calling asylum seekers in UK illegal immigrants when they have the right to be here?

There is nothing straw man about correcting you and Nosenout that tides make no difference to the number of illegals who arrive each year and neither do they affect the steering of a boat crossing Calais to Dover.
You’ve jumped about and dragged in half the internet when all you had to do is say - yep fair point, tides are irrelevant.

All you had to do was to accept that tides are not the only factor affecting crossings.
Don't bother inviting me on your boat for a channel crossing. I prefer a sailor with a wider knowledge of such things.

They aren’t a factor at all which is what I’ve being trying to get you to understand.

Those in france wanting to illegally cross the Channel have no right to be in france: illegals

Every time you RWR”s threaten to rescind your donations. Or whine about the RNLI picking up migrants - donations spike.

Keep it up boyos, the RNLI is grateful.

Tidal currents coupled with other factors affect crossings.

Pugwash is a coast hugging blarney blatherer that wishes he had the sea faring experience of the legend Greta.

Have I missed anything?

Oh the French ARE doing what they are being paid to do and the numbers back it up.

 

[noseall]

irrelevant waffle

 

[Koolpc]

Given that you are a right-wing extremist, at what point do you think these asylum seekers are illegal migrants, during the process that you described?

I can understand that you are unable to give a sensible answer, so abusive behaviour is your only resort.

Thing is, I am proud to stand up for the rights of the true British citizen. Unlike you, a foreigner in mind and actions who goes against anything and everyone who defends the flag!

You think my posts to you are abusive. Nay, they are not. You see them as abusive only because you are constantly going against everything that is truly British.

I am not the only one that can see through you!

They replaced their CEO. The new guy is doing great.

Sitting in your flat complaining about Brexit boat migrants, whilst ignoring rabid racist rioters attacking our brave police, isn’t standing up for anyone’s rights boyo.

Don’t flatter yourself.

Not in a flat. Get things straight boyo!

You are definitely not British in any way what so ever!

No threats from me, I just did it, why should I pay for taxiing illegals, you can feel free to support them though, of course you won't though.
