Re: Rwanda flight
#8, Jim, there is no organized group on here as you alluded to.
As for voting to leave the EU, I never voted for it and certainly would never vote for rejoining.
Yes, send them (illegals) to Rwanda or wherever.
Then UN law clearly states that an asylum seems should seek safety in the first safe country that they arrive in, are the EU countries unsafe?

Re: Rwanda flight
There are a multitude of spy satellites circling the globe, the can detect in fine detail suspicious activities in countries the west are monitoring, North Korea, Iran, Syria, Russia, China etc. Also drones which can stay in the air for days at a time.
Why then are the boat people not spotted preparing to leave the shores of France?

Re: Rwanda flight
Louis, The complete answer o the problem is as you say, right there on the beach. If the french agreed to take them back, it would stop within a week, and lives saved as a result. Surely the French can see that with the number achieving their crossings, is just encouraging more migrants to France, like a moth round a light. we have given the French more money to patrol the beaches etc, sourcing who is suppling all these rubber boats would be a good start. kt

He spent ages while she was there that evening erecting a large stanchion in the middle of the lounge.When she came home,and whilst giving a puzzled sideways glance at the large pole in her lounge,immediately launched into showing Arthur a demonstration of her mazurka,a polonaise and a Bohemian polka....

hi doc vernon #11
good afternoon,im not trying to curry any favour with you but i thought the mere fact that one of the greatest sailors in the history of our country Horatio Nelson went onto to buy a farm, and Cpt James Cook the forerunner and expert of navigation as is still observed even today was born to farm labourers so it seems the curry family are in good company,
