She does know what her job entails I suppose, I mean SOMEBODY must have pointed out the basics to her.

"UK Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said the deaths were "appalling", and that "criminal smuggler gangs continue to organise these dangerous boat crossings"."

[netherfield]

Isn't that what all politicians do.

[naomi24]

Her boss promised to smash the gangs - he said that was the solution.  What's he doing?

[ToraToraTora]

I see the RNLI ferry service is in full operation.

[max137]

They simply haven't the wit or wisdom to solve the problem.

[naomi24]

^or for anything else. 

[Hopkirk]

Can anyone here suggest what we should do?

[ynnafymmi]

I see 900"irregular immigrants"arrived at Dover on Saturday.Will Britain now start to run out of luxury hotels to keep them in?

[ToraToraTora]

the problem is easily solvable but we keep getting blocked by our own trobiscites.

[Hopkirk]

How TTT?

[ToraToraTora]

The simplest way is to get France to agree to us shipping them straight back. If they did then they would not even bother going to France. Result for us both, the Calais jungle will dissappear in a week. Sadly the French would rather self harm than help us and themselves.

How would the French agreeing to accept the returns be of benefit to the French?

[douglas9401]

It would help to convince illegals that there was no point in travelling all the way to France to get stuck there with little or no support from the state.

[davebro3]

Sadly the French are happy (?) to shoo the bar stewards through their territory & wave them on the way to Albion. Damn savages.

I wouldn't be surprised if a French company is supplying the dinghies funded by their government!

[ToraToraTora]

17:17 yes thas the point they'd not even bother going to France. Problem solved for us both.

[THECORBYLOON]

How do the ones currently in France survive?

[ladybirder]

Approximately 5.72 million Muslims were estimated to live in France, the most of any country listed. Germany and the United Kingdom also have large muslim populations with 4.95 million and 4.13 million respectively.

[THECORBYLOON]

If it would deter illegal immigrants from entering France, why was it not introduced years ago?

 

[newmodarmy]

Not by climbing into an overcrowded dinghy, the corbyloon?

[newmodarmy]

That was in response to 18:05

[newmodarmy]

18:15..... just because it hasn't been tried before doesn't mean it wouldn't work. If we always assume  things we haven't done  before wouldn't work we'd never make progress on anything.
