I have no problem with them being rescued, just don't bring them to Europe (unless they are Europeans trying to get to Africa). They should patrol in African waters and escort them back before they get in trouble, as the saying goes, prevention is better than cure.
Indeed this is the only realistic solution. If rescue means a free lift to Europe then more and more will take the risk of putting to see on anything that floats, if they were simply returned to where they come from they would stop risking their lives.

Mathmatically those Camel Herders and Rug Sellers are your Cousins 16 times removed, you should welcome your long lost family .

Allegedly.

And even if they are, it means I've evolved from base ancestry. Would also argue about the '16 times' removed bit. Have been able to trace my family back over 500 years, even read a book about them. Definitely all northern European influence back to those times. (y)

Well as said I have a spare room

providing certain criteria was met ;) I could take a lady refugee in :cool:
 
Even in 1938/9 some refugees were returned France, to an uncertain fate.
It wasn't until 1987 that refugees were refused access to planes and boats to carry them to UK, when the Carriers Liability Act was enacted, making carriers responsible for checking the validity of passengers right to enter UK, and substantial fines if they weren't.
Prior to 1987 refugees could arrive by boat or plane.

Well the way I see it himmagin the UK has certain standards that need to be maintained

Values

All of the refugees should be asked about there views and opinions on homo sexualaity

;)

And those who's views are prejudice should not be allowed in to the UK or be allowed to apply to enter the UK and be deported
 
Interesting how right wing supporters dont care about the plight of people risking their life trying to get across the channel.

Its easy to avoid having any empathy if you dehumanise people into a group

"they are economic migrants, sink their boats and drown them"

" all people on benefits are scroungers"
"those EU immigrants are just here to scrounge off the state"
"Mexicans are rapists and murderers, a few are good people"
"bum boys in tank tops"
"all Muslims are terrorists"
"they look like bank robbers"
"teachers are lazy"
"EU is protectionist"

Yeah its right wing strategy: find somebody to hate.

That way Tories can avoid scrutiny whilst they give dodgy contracts to their mates.
bum boys in tank tops . :LOL: class.
 
Yes, but why are they risking their lives going from one safe place to another safe place?

1. You are not certain they know they are risking their lives ; the smugglers are probably telling them its a piece of P!ss...
2. Social justice warrior Himmy is over in France, spouting tolerance for all, but secretly overjoyed they're leaving la belle France... ;)

True. Probably risking all to get away from that pious moral guardian. Our gain is France's loss.
 
Nope.

Job done, well done Banksy.(y)

They were still bobbing around as of an hour ago.

Seems rather irresponsible overloading a 'rescue vessel' such that it becomes as dangerous as the craft being used by the migrants. And only one liferaft. Shame on the so-called rescuers.
