The government has an appalling record for employing illegal immigrants and should get their own house in order before fining others.
Funny how we ■■■■■ about immigrants.
If we allowed all 5000 into this country and gave each of them a hundred quid a day it would not even equal 1% of the 38 billion that British taxpayers subsidise private banks every year.
Or we bleat about the cost of “operation stack” yet no outcry about the “government” buying shares in banks in 2008 at 5 quid a share then selling them back to the same banking cartels 7 years later for £3.30 a share,a 33% loss for the tax payer.
While poor buggers climbing fences fill news bulletins,the “establishment” rob us blind.
While you got a boogey man nobody looks at the real issues.
quite correct Bking.
Another issue quietly smokescreened is the “legal” immigrants from the EU coming here that Cameron promised to halt,knowing full well that he couldn’t prevent them.
All the spotlight is now on a few thousand at Calais and no mention of the Romanians etc.

Ah but the few headline grabbers at Calais can be diverted when the timing is right and cameron who wears his tights on the outside will claim to have sorted the immigration issue when he tells us to vote to stay in the EU.
Meanwhile another £11billion will be given to various crooks dictators and general ne’er do wells as foreign aid bribes this yer, and another lot next year.
Notice how the big story of “millitant socialist action” is being masked in Calais as well.
If I was over there some distance from the port in a truck - I’d be more worried about being robbed, covered in sewage, or murdered in my bunk - than some immigrants trying to bundle in the back whilst I’m having a ■■■■ at a truckstop somewhere…
Illegal immigrant stopped 'walking through tunnel, Was the unplanned incident in the tunnel Channel Tunnel: Man accused of trying to walk to UK - BBC News Begs the question why wasn’t he detected whilst on the French side, do they not have CCTV■■?, No doubt he will be allowed to claim asylum and allowed to stay here even though he is a criminal because of this Pro migration government who haven’t got any balls, Another question is how many more have succeeded in getting to blighty this way, and how many more will follow?
wonder why we never hear of any pinching a boat and sailing across, or even some fishermen making a few euros on the side.
Surely this must happen?

I don’t doubt for one second that will be happening, nothing to stop people traffickers using boats to do this either , land them on a beach away from the ports at night,

Let’s face it, we wouldn’t have been talking about it at all if the French ferry strikers hadn’t kicked off & operation stack was implemented, thereby causing problems for holidaymakers. It’s something the media jumped on as if it’s a new problem when it’s been happening for years.

'Cos it’s all smoke & mirrors mate.
You’re not quite, but you’re almost awake.
You will struggle to pinch a boat at night mate, they are all being used to smuggle drugs.

Yes alcohol and tobacco.
“legal” drugs that cause more harm than all the charlie,skag and weed that have ever been produced.
But its taxable.

what an enterprising smuggler may do both at the same time more profit in that ? it happens and has been happening for a long time,
like the number who make it through the channel tunnel on foot undetected(really ?) if they can do that nothing stopping some deranged ISIS knob from doing it for jhad
There is nothing stopping that channel tunnel being totally secure or there shouldn’t be,

Maybe Eurotunnel should look to spend some of that £90+ million of profits improving there perimeter fencing … not that crap wire fencing that’s been shown in the media where immigrants are climbing it, cutting through it and going under it…but stuff high security mesh fencing system with narrow apertures. This prevents the ‘would be intruder’ having any foot or finger holds therefore making it extremely difficult to climb & cut … or they could actually look at installing a West Bank barrier like the Israeli’s did…or maybe get some advice from the Russians who built the Berlin wall…certainly worked for them
So why should the British government be giving out £7 million to improve security when the Eurotunnel ( A Business) is making vast profits…
I cannot see how the current fencing is considered adequate and what surprises me more is that does not France have such laws on criminal damage, breaking & entering …trespass…or endangering other road users…
But would this solve the issue…Not really coz these people will just move on to another port town hoping to get across the land of hand outs…Over the past few weeks the blame game has been played out in the media… Brits blaming the French and vice versa…then its a European problem ,but its been happening for years so why is it more of a problem now…last of all but not least its all the truckers faults because of the lack or inadequate security measures on there vehicles…
Talk about ■■■■■■■■ on the innocent decent people trying to make a living…or are the media and the governments just using the haulage industry as another tool to blame for there lack of insight on how to deal with the issue in hand…
Most of these immigrants come from Syria,Iraq,Libya,Afghanistan,Yemen
Maybe if this country had put half the money they spent on dropping bombs and destabalising other countries into building our manufacturing base,as opposed to giving it to bankers this situation would never have arisen.
All we do in this country now is feed a parasite financial system or make weapons which either we or our “allies” eg Saudi Arabia use to subjugate,murder or terrorise either their own people or their neighbours.
Our foreign policy is disgusting and we deserve all we get.
With us now paying for fencing over there - I’m of a mind that Calais should be returned to it’s “Traditional Ownership” - as an English enclave in France.
We’d benefit from the locals, particularily the transport firms including ferry operators - paying some UK taxes rather than the cheaper French ones they pay.
