Maybe the French are doing what we pay them to do.
The entire premise of 2tk's recent meeting with Bitch slap, was focused on frenzied panic to stop reform gaining power in the UK.
They both had to appear to be doing something to stop the small boat invasion on our shores, or come the next election at least one of them would be out.
They want these immigrants here, the most logical explanation as to why is because they boost gdp growth in the short term.
Their term!

I am interested in all angles on this topic. I just want to clarify that I have understand your post.
From what I have just Googled, Bitch slap is Macron.
So, are you saying that Macron has now decided to take stopping the boats seriously. And the reason is because he wants the immigrants to stay in France to boost their GDP.

Reform will be the next gov without a doubt, unless there is some sort of manufactured conspiracy to bring them down like what happened to Corbyn.

James' O Tool, and a few of his disciples on here believe it to be working a treat.
Best not upset them, I say.

Somethings happening, getting fewer every day. Looks like Reform have shamed them into doing something.

I would imagine it's just normal variation. I am sure we will have some more big days soon.

Or it’s all tied in with Macrons visit to make it look like something is happening?

It could be. The French obviously have the power to stop this. But that might play badly at home.

 

[motorbiking]

nah, it goes in waves... Some days there are none. Some days there are loads.

I doubt there will be many today and yesterday. Its pretty rough in the channel at the moment.

The Irish choosing to ignore what it must have felt like for some of their own in decades gone by e.g. no Irish no blacks no dogs and for some of their ancestors when moving to the States.

The groups behind this type of behaviour don't identify with the Irish Catholics who emigrated to America during the famine.
That is why there are two Irish ethnic groups in the states.

I've heard the term "Scots Irish" on American films and TV shows. Is that one of the groups you mention.
