Just to give some idea of the scale of the problem, the Allies landed 156000 men on the beaches at Normandy 81 years ago.

 

At the current rate of invasion that’s 141 days, less than 5 months.

 

And it is an invasion.

 

48 hours warning plastered to every corner of the planet, in every language, so the whole world knows.

 

If you try and cross illegally you will be sunk and drown.

 

The message would get through very, very quickly.

 

To all the bedwetters who disagree, it’s no different to a ‘danger of death’ sign on a pylon.

If you’re stupid enough to climb it and touch a wire, you die.

 

Time to take the gloves off.

Whilst your suggestion is probably unnecessarily harsh, I suspect the majority of people now finally agree with you in principle.  What used to really annoy me when the wife and I watched the BBC or ITV news (we no longer bother with main-stream media) was that no-one ever said ‘But they are coming from France’.  We were expected to buy the narrative that they were escaping persecution and war.

 

What a stupid thing to do: cross a dangerous busy shipping lane in a totally unsuitable boat.  No wonder the government at one point wondered whether they could just ‘push them back’.

Palestinians gunned down while trying to reach food aid site in Gaza, hospital says | Israel-Gaza war | The Guardian

Witnesses say Israeli forces opened fire on people near distribution point run by Israel-backed foundation

 

From what I hear there is now a new method of distributing the aid.  The Americans are doing it directly.  Finally the people who actually are in need of food may actually get it.

 

I find it difficult to criticise the Israeli government for not allowing aid through knowing that it was not distributed by Hamas but sold to raise money to fund the war.  Why should Israel go to lengths to look after the Palestinian people when their own government don’t?

The shootings in the article were at one of those aid places you refer to. 

Do you think the Settlers are right to move into areas that Palestinians have been displaced from? 

Genuine question, as I think that most of us have some common ground. 

I imagine we'll have a few more boatloads of Palestinian people coming over before long.

Parts of this planet have been in conflict for well over 13,000 years, it's never going to stop! well maybe if the entire area was turned to glass. 

aid isn't helping it,, it's prolonging it.

Couldn’t agree more Mark, the libtard fools on here and in society in general who think these people are genuine asylum seekers are as big as problem as the illegals in the boat. The cost to taxpayers alone and the systematic destruction of our country and its values is beyond party politics now.
