Very nice of them but do they realise they have just launched a thousand ships?

[cassa333]

Perhaps Italy just needs to stop sending the taxi boats out to pick up the non paying fares then.

//Spain's prime minister has said the country will take in a rescue ship stranded in the Mediterranean, to help avoid a humanitarian disaster. /

Furthermore, the BBC has reported that the ship will dock in Valencia.

"I'm sure a migrant won't be worst than a drunk british tourist in Benidorm at 12 AM"

Speak only for yourself.

[ToraToraTora]

spath: "are you 100% certain Spain is even taking in this boat? " - I believe the BBCs reporting of it, does that count?

[ToraToraTora]

we are talking about refugees, spath. If you'd like to discuss the British abroad I have some sympathy but please start your own thread.

[HansUrbancka]

The Mayors of both Valencia & Barcelona have said that they are prepared to accept the ship and its passengers.

Idiots. They are the soft touch now that will keep this tragedy going.

Poor bloody Malta.

[dannyk13]

Malta is only 18,8 miles long by 14,5 miles wide.Where are they going to accommodate over 600 immigrants?

I'm very glad I got out of Valencia when I did.

The indiginous Valencians wouldn't be happy about a migrant influx and neither would the multi-national ex pat community.

[Samuraisan]

Well I doubt they will stay here for long. Except the ones that get recruited by the gangs that run the "lucky lucky" guys. No council houses to hand out here, and you have to have a registered address to attend school etc. I am not sure how the refugee camps are run, but I did read somewhere that a new prison is been used, which the immigrants are not too happy about.

//neither would the multi-national ex pat community [of Valencia]. //

Who, for the benefit of kvalidir and Spath, both of whom should be more selective in their choice holiday destinations, don’t spend their lives drunk and legless.

Incidentally kvalidir at 15:06. I see no remnants of the SS around here. You’re out of order.

[youngmafbog]

The SS are those that dont subscribe to kvalidir's ultra left wing views. You should know by now Naomi that if you dont tow the leftie liberal line you will be called some name or other.

Tourists to foreign countries don't permanently stay there, but contribute to the local economy then return home. Illegal economic migrants aim to stay. One can can hardly compare the two.
