The fact that this situation has allowed to exist for years shows how much Western Europe lost its nerve.

If they were Trump supporters, Britain would have banned them from coming.

take them 20 miles out, give them life preservers and a day’s food and water,
if they make it back, they get to stay :)

The photo at the site shows dozens of smiling young men and one young French woman holding a sign.

My bad, they would still be 6-7 miles away. Maybe dunkirk is closer and that was what i got mixed up on.

Translation...Britain offers higher welfare benefits than France.Just as New York offers higher benefits than Arkansas.

Yes, the Calais invader camp needs to be closed with whatever force is necessary and the occupants booted out of Europe. The cancer must be cut out of France and the message sent to the many millions planning to come to Europe to think again - or else. Unfortunately, most of Europe is incapable of thinking in that way, with the possible exception of a few of the Eastern European countries like Hungary.

“Migrants” in this case equates to pirates.
Literally.

Why would the French want to deprive the Brits of making that choice?/// There is an inevitability to it, no?????

Exactly. The WORST criminals in all this are not the rioting migrants. The worst criminals are the socialist bastards who run these countries and the EU. They are four times guilty. Guilty for encouraging these people into their countries in the first place. Guilty for not vetting them before they allowed them in. Guilty for not having any plan to deal with them once they were there. Guilty of not reacting forcefully against those who commit crimes and expelling them.
The PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY OF GOVERNMENT is to defend it’s borders and protect it’s citizens from invasions. Ergo, these governments are illegitimate.
The socialist left - whether in Europe or America, is incapable of rational governance and any steps to remove them from power and/or block them from acquiring that power are legitimate.
This is insanity.

“Idleness, selfishness, fecklessness, envy and irresponsibility are the vices upon which socialism in any form flourishes and which it in turn encourages. But socialism’s devilishly clever tactic is to play up to all those human failings, while making those who practise them feel good about it” [Margaret Thatcher Nicholas Ridley Memorial Lecture]

Halfway across the channel, sink the ferry with a torpedo. No more “migrant” problem.
