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.?

[dannyk13]

ymb,the result of blocking the French fishing vessels would likely lead to another cod war.

[ToraToraTora]

don't be ridiculous danny, they are our waters anyway, even the actual cod war wasn't war.

gully 14:03 do you have a link to the article?

[dannyk13]

TTT, //don't be ridiculous danny//
I wasn't ridiculous. I was referring to the fact that if we block the French they will block and fish exports to France.

[youngmafbog]

No it wont and so what if it does.

The fishing needs to get sorted out as well, can kill two birds one stone here and show the Frenchies we mean business.

[dannyk13]

TTT//gully 14:03 do you have a link to the article?//
Now that is a ridiculous question.

[dannyk13]

ymb. Then what is your solution to stopping the illegal immigrants.

[burlyshirley]

Extremely good point made at 13:23 !

[ToraToraTora]

the answer was given at 11:37, but I'd also double down on YMB's suggestion of blocking their fishing boats.

Is this the survey report?

why are you helping the idiot ken? let him find his own links.

[davebro]

Well when the Gov thought there were 2 million odd EU migrants here & double that number have applied for settlement I think the concerns over immigration were (and are) perfectly justified!

[Ken4155]

"Why are you helping the idiot, Ken? Let him find his own links."

Your fault for showing me how, TTT :-J

[Jackdaw33]

Before this question can be resolved the British government must summon up the resolve to ignore the howls of anguish which will inevitably ensue from other countries, who are unaffected by the problem; also those of our own fifth column and its bleeding-heart liberal hordes. Only then will they be able to take the necessary steps.

[ToraToraTora]

bang on JD, they need to ignore the hand wringers and get on with it.

[ToraToraTora]

ken, no good deed goes unpunished eh?

[dannyk13]

That survey was based on peoples atitude to the number of legal[i EU immigrants and how many were applying to stay in the UK. Nothing to do with the present problem of [i]illegal] immigration.

Uk lost ‘the cod wars’ to Iceland ., the french navy is probably a bit more ferocious than Iceland’s , so I hope not

[gulliver1]

Ok you lot, here is the deal .... If anyone on A/b can give me a justified reason why Johnson . Sunak and Patel are paying.
£67 million of tax payers money to France to keep immigrants away from Uk, but France are escorting them into British waters . I will resign from A/b and let you all carry on living in cuckoo land in peace.

Danny, i didn't write the article, i just found it. And it was the only one i could find which in any way related to what Gulliver was saying.
