There is nothing to calm down about. Brexit Party Leader Nigel Farage was correct that the UK should declare a national emergency over the “invasion” via the English Channel. As tensions rise between the UK and France, the only positive factor is that globalist France is inadvertently admitting the error of its suicidal immigration policies, but persists in refusing to take any responsibility for what it has done.
France blames the UK, which is guilty of the same immigration policy failure: “President of the National Society for Rescue at Sea in Calais, Bernard Barron, also suggested Britain should ‘criticise themselves’ and question ‘the reasons that make their country so attractive’ to Third World migrants. The remarks could be interpreted as a criticism of Britain’s generous welfare and asylum systems, and how they compare to France.”
Barron’s question should be pondered: the West is attractive to migrants because of their welfare systems. Many, if not most, are not coming to work.
“Calais Mayor Tells Boris to ‘Calm Down’, Claims Illegal Migration Is UK’s Fault” by Victoria Friedman, Breitbart, August 14, 2020:
The Mayor of Calais has said that Boris Johnson should “calm down” about illegal boat migrants crossing the English Channel from France.
Natacha Bouchart — who recently said that the United Kingdom sending the Royal Navy into the Channel to solve the crisis would be a “declaration of maritime war” — also claimed the migrant crisis was Britain’s fault.
“If the migrants want to cross [the Channel], it is because the British themselves put out the call. They have done so by failing to touch their legislation for 20 years,” Ms Bouchart told AFPTV on Thursday, according to The Guardian.
“Therefore I appeal to Boris Johnson, saying you urgently need to calm down, and urgently need to change your methods of … dealing with migrants,” the regional mayor added.
She also told France’s interior minister Gérald Darmanin, who is in current talks with his British counterpart Priti Patel to come to a solution to the crisis, not to “give in” — because the “British don’t know how to negotiate”.
“It’s only by standing firm that you achieve something,” she said.
Bouchart is not the only French politician to claim that the increase in boat landings — 4,198 at the latest official count this year — is the fault of the British.
Deputy mayor of Calais Philippe Mignonet told La Voix du Nord on Tuesday in comments reported by The Times: “I fear a tragedy one day, but the British blame us for their own hypocrisy.”
Mr Mignonet added that one of the reasons migrants want to come to the United Kingdom is because it is easy to find employment there, as “they can work in the black economy when they want, because there is no control, not on the street or in the workplace”
President of the National Society for Rescue at Sea in Calais, Bernard Barron, also suggested Britain should “criticise themselves” and question “the reasons that make their country so attractive” to Third World migrants.
The remarks could be interpreted as a criticism of Britain’s generous welfare and asylum systems, and how they compare to France.
Migrants waiting to cross the Channel have reportedly claimed that it can take years for French authorities to process their claims for financial benefits and access to health care is restricted.
While in the United Kingdom, illegals and asylum seekers can apply immediately for financial and housing assistance even if their asylum claims have not been processed. They also have immediate access to health care and education for their school-aged children….
