Saint Toppy Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 From January, but still good: Daily Mail's Ferry Offer Used By Activists To Help Calais Migrans WearyRhino - Have you got your ticket yet and stocked up on Sainsbury's finest foods to take over to Calais ? This is exactly the kind of thing you've been advocating for our fellow human beings. So are you actually going to do something or are you just all talk and hollow soundbites ?

Phil Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 The light of patronising and sanctimonious pomposity ALed Jones should take his programme to Northern Nigeria, or Eritrea, or Libya Why? Because, they've stayed in their own countries and are therefore "more deserving" than those who left. Although in JohnM's right wing philosophy those who left are showing a certain amount of entrepreneurial spirit and motivation so surely should be encouraged?

Wolford6 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Tell us something we don't already know. Fair play to you for your hospitality. As a centre for the relocation of war-torn third world refugees, Lancashire is always going to offer minimum disruption to both the natives and the immigrants.

JohnM Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Charlemagne, the champion of democracy - government of the people, by the people, for the people - speaks! European Emperor Jean-Claude Juncker has indicated he will revisit ideas for a mandatory distribution of asylum seekers among member states, while urging governments not to succumb to "populist" thinking on immigration."There are moments in politics when you must not follow the populists, otherwise you become populist yourself. You must say the opposite of what (the populists) say," Juncker told AFP in an interview on Wednesday (5 August). https://euobserver.com/justice/129840 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Toppy Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 So what happens if Juncker says to the UK that we must open our borders and take 5000 migrants. Are we bound by some international or european law that says we must obey him and open our borders to them ? If we are, then the In / Out referendum would see a huge surge of support for the 'Out' brigade fuelled by the right wing press. A decision on migrants would have far wider consequences for the whole of the EU. St.Helens - The Home of record breaking Rugby Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
