France has been all too eager to pass off its Muslim migrant problem onto Britain.
But the blame cannot be put squarely on France. France and Britain are both at fault for the same reason: neither country’s leaders want to be seen as “Islamophobic,” so they allow a Muslim migrant invasion to continue. Violations of their sovereignty, erosion of the rule of law and the exposure of their citizens to security risks and a greater economic burden (at a time when they can least afford it) are all secondary to political correctness.
“Channel migrants ‘could top 100,000 a year’: Ex-Border Force chief says crossings could reach ‘epidemic’ levels unless France agrees to take back those that attempt perilous trip,” by Stephen Wynn-Davies, MailOnline, November 14, 2021:
Britain could face up to 100,000 migrants arriving each year unless it strikes a deal with France, a former Border Force chief has warned, after record numbers crossed the Channel this week.
Tony Smith, the former director-general of Border Force, said numbers were in danger of reaching ‘epidemic’ levels.
His comments come after a record 1,185 migrants crossed the Channel on Thursday and three who fell from kayaks were feared dead. The French stopped 99 migrants that day.
Mr Smith said the numbers of migrants arriving in the UK could reach levels last seen in the Sangatte crisis in 2001, when thousands of migrants tried to smuggle themselves into Britain, unless France agreed to take back people intercepted at sea or those who reached the UK.
Mr Smith, who himself helped implement the deal to halt the crisis in the early 2000s, told The Telegraph: ‘If you’re talking about 1,000 a day you are getting to the epidemic proportions I predicted we might reach in 2001.
‘That’s when we had 100,000 in a year with the vast majority coming across the Channel.
‘They were sleeping in the streets in Dover.
‘There was a huge injection of money into the Home Office to cope with that….

They call them migrants. In reality, the are invaders who follow the teachings of Muhammad. They are coming ton conquer the West, Christians in particular. I have long called Macron a traitor to France for allowing these migrants to settle in France. A leader will recognize the threat posed by Islam and take appropriate actions to protect his citizens. France, Germany, and the UK have failed their citizens.
mortimer says
They are economic migrants. I don’t blame them for wanting out of Berzerkistan but they are doing so illegally. UK has no obligation to receive an economic migrant.

Bottom line: Both France and the UK are failing egregiously—and ludicrously.
Arguing about a “deal struck with France” is akin to arguing where the deck chairs should be placed on the sinking Titanic.
The West in general (there are exceptions like Poland and Hungary) is now functioning in stupid suicidal mode. It may actually constitute the greatest tragedy of tragedies in all of human history.
I know full well I have mentioned this many times before but I will mention this again: If you wish to realize why the West has become so stupid, just look at the most tragic decade in all of Western history for its source, i.e., the 1960’s.
Yes, there were a few good things that came out of the West in the 1960’s such as the NASA space program, civil rights for minorities and women (definitely overdo) and some good music, but this decade launched the idiotic self-hate, actually foolish narcissism and masochism in extremis, and which stupidities we are still having to deal with to this very day. Barack Obama and Pope Francis, never mind all the silly rubes in the Brandon Administration and a colossal fool like Tony Blair, are all “end products” of what the 1960’s foolishly unleashed.
I hate the 1960’s. I feel fully in vindication mode doing so. Miss what the 1960’s did to the West and you will miss most everything. Guaranteed.

The counter-culture was counter-sanity! It’s easy to destroy something and hard to make something better.
Revolutionaries have no idea what the unintended consequences may be.
The Biden/AOC/Bernie Sanders revolutionaries are trying to radically change the country and we see how fast they are actually wrecking it.

actually, Wellington, the leading leftists who first went public in the 1960s were active in the 1930s and 1940s, and they got their inspiration from the previous generation of leftists. in fact, U have to go all the way back to the french revolution and earlier to get to the beginnings of the evils the left is visiting on us today.
personally, i can’t see leftists as stupid, at least not the hard-core thought leaders. they didn’t get to where they are by being stupid; instead, i am convinced that they understand islam very well, and know that in any random group of muslims, at least 10% will be pious, meaning that they will attack their hosts at random to spread terror and chaos. this means that if the left imports the ummah, all they need to do is provide political cover for them to keep the importation going. the ummah thus serves as the proxy army of the left, destroying the host society so that the hard-core left can seize power when it begins to collapse from the widespread death and chaos. the left need not even communicate with its “army,” or even let it know that it understands what it is doing, because the army is self-motivated by its “religion.” the left knows what it is doing, and all the blood is on their hands.
Infidel says
Why does UK need any deal w/ France? Just sink any boats whose passengers don’t have valid visa papers, and similarly, block the entry of anybody into Dover w/o papers. It’s not that complicated
Of course, first fire the entire bureaucracy, and then give the police and Royal Navy direct orders
Wellington says
Won’t happen, Infidel, though I would first try to turn such boats away before sinking them.
In any case, with a fool like BoJo as PM no winning strategy to save the UK will be exacted. It’s a long line of Bozo leaders who have done this to Britain—Blair (the single must culpable; he did more long-term harm to the UK than Hitler did), Brown, Cameron, May and now the overeducated doofus who is Johnson.
No sanity and correct information about Islam is in sight. Thus the UK continues to sink—and this is coming to a plethora of other Western nations soon like if not already here, led by other Bozos like Biden the Puppet and Trudeau the Superficial.
mortimer says
Trudeau is in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood as was Obama.
mortimer says
Boris Johnson may have some sympathy for Muslims due to his family history of a persecuted Turkish politician ancestor. It is naive.
Check Burry says
Why cannot french police in large force number shoot holes in these rubber boats before these invaders get them to the sea., end of. What have they used UK millions for, there were 2 watching yesterday havin a smoke, enjoying the view, whats the good of 2 cops against a bunch of knife carrying invaders?
mortimer says
All of these invaders should be picked up by UK and taken to a cool-temperature British island in the south Atlantic until they are ‘processed’ or sent back to their home countries.
That is the cheapest option. The message will soon get out that it’s cold on South Georgia.
Infidel says
Not that cheap – transporting them halfway across the world. Look instead at putting them temporarily in the Shetland Islands, and then ‘process’ or deport them
