Need one ask, in fact it is reported they are now ringing 999 and asking for our help to land us on our shores.

Why don't we send them directly back to France from whence they came?

They say we have an agreement with France, why do we need an agreement, agreement or not, if they came from England don't you think that France would send them directly back, agreement or not?

Fire a shot over the bow of the boat. If they continue sink it.

It will stop this very sharp.

I'm sure we recently agreed with France that they are to be sent back there.

AOG must have missed this:

Probably some 'ooman rights thing they claim.

We need to change the way our benefits systems works - As the Major of Calais pointed out to us some while back.

Ooh! I know this. Is it 'To get to the other side'?

[Zacs-Master]

I thought it might be 'because they can'r swim'.

[youngmafbog]

Good answer JF :-)

[Old_Geezer]

To get to the other side !

[Old_Geezer]

Oh. I should read the whole thread before answering the question :-(

How many migrants in an 'handful'?

[Zacs-Master]

I have no idea, AOG but it's 'some' which would seem to be more than you thought there were.
