France Won't Allow Britain To Turn Migrant Boats Around.

[gulliver1]

After UK Officials had offered to escort migrant boats back into
French Waters...... Wheres the Royal Navt then.... I thought Britain ruled the waves.?

steg: "Uk lost ‘the cod wars’ to Iceland ., the french navy is probably a bit more ferocious than Iceland’s , so I hope not " ) wondered how long it would take the anti British to spout their usual BS. There was never a "cod war", do you seriously think we'd lose a war to Iceland? Now, France? all you have to do is bomb the white flag factory to remove their military ability.

[ToraToraTora]

anyway we are world war champions:

could the french not meet mid channel with border farce and take back the ones who rowed to get here, it would set a precedence possibly putting off the mad illegal economic migrants, and maybe work together and fly them back to a neutral african country that relies in uk and french aid, blackmail or a bribe.

it's called a "war" but I don't think a shot was fired, maybe a couple across the bow.

Anti British and proud

//There was never a "cod war", do you seriously think we'd lose a war to Iceland? //
Britain lost the cod wars to Iceland whether you want to believe it or not

Gulliver //15.16 ,Why don't you practise what you Preach ?.//
I do.I have an opinion which I expressed.

[dannyk13]

Steg//Anti British and proud//
At least you are honest.

[ToraToraTora]

steg: "Anti British and proud " - funny I never had you down as Anti Scot, you do realise the Scotland is part of Great Britain, right?

[ToraToraTora]

Yes, danny good point, I do applaud the honesty. Most of them skulk around trying to score cheap sarky points and then deny they are anti British. Well done Steg.

[ToraToraTora]

steg: "Britain lost the cod wars to Iceland whether you want to believe it or not " - we may have not done as well as we would have liked in the negotiations but it was a negotiation not a war. Or we'd minced them in an afternoon.

[dannyk13]

To get back to the OP.What do the French mean by won't allow. How do they inten to stop it happening?

Only idiots would argue the territorial waters dispute with Iceland was a war.

Wonder if the Gendarmes and Border Guards are sitting on the beach at Calais, swigging Champagne and raising their glasses to Boris and the British tax payer.
