That will do it 🤦🏻 I have no idea if this will work, but none of the current stuff we are doing is working. Rwanda scheme at £1.8m per migrant was an expensive publicity stunt. Starting by stopping a problem at the cause in itself makes sense but is not going to tackle the issue, but if alongside this we build better relations with France what might become possible ? https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/border-force-turns-back-migrant-boat-france-first-time-history/ If we actually take action to tackle the gangs with international colleagues rather than posturing and blaming the ECHR what might happen. Whatever people think about Starmer the new Govt is starting to take action, not everyone will agree with all those actions. But after last few years of incompetence and inaction hidden behind 3 word slogans things are starting to move . Labour will be judged on their results come election time by when their actions will (or will not) have had an impact. But it feels good that something is actually happening. The boat that took migrants back to France did not require the Royal Marines either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lammy said the other day that many are coming over because of the climate change, are they going to buy air con units to tempt them to stay? Rwanda was called a gimmick because we were paying to get rid of people, now we are paying to prevent people coming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you looking for advice on sexual lubricants or were you implying that these JSO public school revolutionaries are offering us some help? Just watched the long haired fucking JSO layabout on GMB this morning. FFS, everything which is wrong in our youth sat there spouting utter bollocks. Hair clippers and a bout of national service (preceded by a kick in his bollocks preferably) would do nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paying to prevent people leaving their own countries in the first place is the best way to stop the cycle. Just be thankful we have a sensible pragmatic government with a different plan.

We’ve sent 10s of billions in foreign aid for decades to improve their lives yes they still come, what do you think 84 million will do?

SatanGreavsie Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 As I said before, for a fraction of all this and Rwanda money etc you could just pay the people smugglers to become border guards. Sorted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Would it not be an idea to make it less easier to settle and receive handouts here and in the process more lucrative to stay in mainland Europe? Just an idea like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an idea like. How do you do that? 60% of cases are genuinely asylum seekers. By international law they have the right to get here and claim asylum. How are you within international law going to dissuade these asylum cases from coming here? The 40% that aren’t have been allowed to stay in hotels too. So process them and send them back which the government have started on. Then stop the trade at source and the gangs running channel crossings. Thats the only way you can stop this. Without becoming a pariah state. Most asylum seekers don’t get here. This is the thing. People think they are all coming here but majority are stopping at various points across Europe. It’s a small amount that get to the channel. In 2023 France had more than double our asylum applications. We are the end of the chain - the reason people push through to here is not an overly generous system though putting them in hotels for months and years on end as we have been isn’t exactly putting anyone off. But the main drivers are language, perception of well paid jobs and family links here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
