What's happened to the small boats?

Which of his statements was a lie?

Which was made with the intent of antagonising people by deliberately posting inflammatory, irrelevant, or offensive comments or other disruptive content, or posting to ‘bait’ people, by deliberately provoking an argument or emotional reaction?

Actually it wasn't directed at you, but now you come to think of it. I can see how you were confused.

It doesn't need to have been for me to respond - that's the way forums work.

but now you come to think of it. I can see how you were confused.

I'm not confused at all. I think that that might be you if you think you detected trolling in his post.

Seems the policies enacted recently are having an effect...

"Small boat crossings to the UK have almost halved"

Analysis of Home Office data shows 12,469 people had arrived in the UK on small boats by 10 July this year – down 43 per cent from 2025, when 21,690 people had made the perilous journey across the English Channel in the same period.

There have now been nine consecutive days of no arrivals from 11-19 July, the latest government figures show"

And we can't exactly blame the weather can we

So why is it that the crossings have fallen so dramatically?

Maybe 'good old nige' could comment?

Oh that's right, he's never to be seen when the figures embarrass him...

Plus he's busy working out how to defeat a bin

The French clamped down on there police turning a blind eye and deaf ear and the brown envelopes on the coast

Such was the corruption ??? It became an embarrassment to French

You have no buiness explaining to me how a forum works. Very patronising of you.
Reported.

Nosenout calls anything he believes to be wrong a lie. So by that definition it’s a lie.

There is a claim that supply has dropped due to the efforts of the French and British working together. There is no evidence presented to back this up.

If you look at the general demand figures across Europe they have fallen substantially.

It’s not unreasonable to think this would impact the U.K. too.

The French clamped down

Correct and numbers have plummeted as a result. It was the only thing one trick pony Fromage had going for him

Great news isn’t it.

 

[noseall]

an embarrassment to French

Never thought of that. Perhaps they haven’t forgiven Fromage for Brexit? And that they despise the scumbag as much as folk in the UK, and this is their way of showing him as much?

 

[transam]

French will
Use it as a bargaining chip

Eventually the scoundrels will throw there toys out of the pram over some issue and turn the tap back on

 

[transam]

Mind you dare say the French have had a good clear out all the scum bags and un desirables have been shipped over to the UK

Dunno about there lunatic asylums but dare say they have sneaked a few in to the mix ??

Probably took advice from the Cubans ??
