If I wanted to move to a different country for financial reasons I would do so via the legal route, if my family were in danger I may well do anything to save them, however that would involve removing them from danger, that makes them refugees not economic migrants which I would be if I ran off to a different country to make a better life while leaving my wife kids and grandkids in danger.
Perhaps you would care to apologise for your slurs on my character.
Nine times out of ten in these countries , the regimes have little concern about women and children. It is only advanced regimes like China and Iran who tend to keep a very close eye on the families of exiles so they can use them as hostages.

Really! How can it be illegal for someone who theoretically doesn't exist in the fist place to leave the country?:scratchhead:
Idiotic, you're just playing the French apologist as usual; if they are 'theoretically' non-existent, why does your president make such an issue of them, refer to them etc. etc.?

I don't know why you are pretending this is not a problem which France is in great part causing and could solve. Punishment for Brexit and fishing which can be made to disappear if we kowtow?

If so, and that seems to be the message the French want to get across (although without the moral courage to say so openly), it gives the lie to it being something beyond their control. No surprise.

It is something called diplomacy, which even given your obviously very superior knowledge, is not a career would ever have been suitable for you 😂😂😂

What can you do, offer some folk help and they throw it back in your face, the French are obviously on top of the job or think they are

But the French are exactly where they want to be!
But if you were the French stuck with endless migrants clamouring to get to the dozy UK for a cushy life wouldn't you be giving the migrants a cheery sendoff as they left the beach.
The fault as always lies with the prats in Westminster not really with the French!

After offloading 27,000 migrants from their shores why would they think they need help? Wonder what the hotel bill is for that lot?
yep they obviously think it is perfectly fine for people to be leaving french shores in to french waters in boats that are not suitable to be at sea. well either its fine or they don't care

Oh dear touchy f**kets, they can threaten to cut of electric supplies and slow down cross channel trade because some of their fishermen have cheated the eu rules and now want access that they dont qualify for and that's ok apparently.
They just act like spoiled brats

So if they dont have any concern for the women and kids then they arent refugees so dont qualify to come here, you cant have it both ways. They are either in danger and thus the women and kids need to leave or they are economic migrants
 
It's not those coming from France (fleeing poverty and wars created and started by the west to plunder their resources) who are affecting your life it's those coming from Eton.

"Look at those immigrants stealing your money/Livelihood etc." they encourage you to shout so that you don't look at who is realy doing the plundering.

It's an age old tactic and I see that it's working beautifully.

That’s the truth of this all. It’s basically 'look over there' and whilst you’re doing that they are going through your pockets.

So,what you are really saying is the UK government has shat in it's own bed and now wants France to clean it up. Priceless! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Cutting electric supplies while we are sending them 2 gigawatts as we were today is a bit if a hollow threat 😂😂😂
Incidentally we were burning coal again to do it!

No!
The goalposts have been moved. Little family boats that weren't under the regulations for digital equipment now have to have their charts and records digitalised. Unfair , unjust and breaking the TCA. Normal service for the UK.
I have heard more anti Brit comments in the last 2 months than the previous 18,5 years. Global Britain🤣
