UK will finally off shore illegal asylum seekers crossing the channel

I struggling to see what this has got to do with the The Rwanda policy, but 98% of people who cross the Channel in small boats claim asylum claimed asylum, that's from the UK governments own figures.

Maybe so, but at least they see its a problem and are trying to do something unlike the useless shower we have running the country who want to let in every Tom Dick and Harry that shows up.

Oh and a Justice Minister who thinks its a good thing when there are no deportations.

Wish France would restrict all small launches from the north coast.

Of course that would mean the issue stays in France rather than moving on to UK. And they did set out for UK, so I can understand why France doesnt close off the beaches altogether.

Rwanda is the most practical solution seen so far. If theres no deterrant or control theyll just keep coming. Some genuine, some chancers, some dangerous.

And some will die horribly. As recently.

And how exactly do you propose that they shut down the northern coast of France to every small boat launch?

Any movement of refugees to South Georgia would still require royal assent from the current monarch, King Penguin.

King Charles II isn't that cold.

Nonsense.

A country has the right to tell you where you may leave from/arrive to. Its how we fight drug and people smuggling. And why we have passports.

In any case theres nothing to stop a govt declaring a particular area off limits, this already happens on the French coast for ecological preservation, if you access certain beaches you'll be fined and turned back. France decides those areas unilaterally.

France can make the more popular launch points subject to an emergency legal decree if it so decides. Or make large swathes into a sort of area 51 if so decided.

None of this prevents you leaving.

Well its my wish, yes. (Im not going to say its the complete "solution", but Im sure it would certainly help.)

Temporarily, and with a permit available for exceptions.

Lets remember, dozens of people are dying. If this werent a political issue everyone would agree. People dying, emergency situation in this area, number of people increasing, shut it down for a bit.

By the way, whats your solution? Open door? Okay heres several thousand random people. Is one of them a serial chomo and/or war criminal, lets wait and see. In ye come.

What I wished for hasn't been tried yet.

Although yes, repeating the same unsuccessful behavior is not a good idea. Such as with the present system which has seen many fatalities and an increase in numbers.

Thus I wish France would throw a giant spanner in the works, and block them before they can even get sand on their shoes. Keep it up until the fad dies down enough and new strategies can be developed to prevent it becoming a trend again.

I agree with your point about the uk incentivizing them to come, and it always frustrated the piss out of me to see Brits blaming France for an issue which is primarily between the UK and the immigrant who has set out to reach the UK in the first place.

There already are legal means to emigrate to the UK.

Maybe because their south coast is already subject to thousands of illegals entering, often unidentified.

As for the actual topic, and those already waiting to attempt to cross the channel, this Rwanda policy should be used as much as possible. Then I suppose those who cant be sent there will just have to be dealt with under the current failed system, i.e. given a hotel room, visa and cash, on the taxpayers unlimited tab.

And thats why I wish France would just nuke the whole option. No leaving on that route without permission.

Cant die in the channel because the traffickers dinghy cant leave or make it to UK waters.

Now tell it to all the other welfare shoppers back home. Until this whole sh1tfest dies down.

Same deal with North African countries, and if they dont want to comply we should encourage them until they do.

It seems like you are looking for France to implement a policy which would be highly unpopular and contentious amongst their citizens (needing a permit to do a bit of leisure sailing/fishing/motorboating on their beaches during the pleasant days of next Spring), just to fix up a UK problem which I'd guess has gained little or no traction in France.

You said in an earlier post that it frustrates you to see the UK blaming the French for an issue which is purely between UK and prospective immigrant. I'm struggling to see the difference between accepting that France shouldn't be blamed, yet also suggesting France should introduce such a draconian policy on their own citizens.

Highly unpopular among some people, briefly. Yes.

This is what I wish would happen, however I dont propose it. Its a real bad idea to try to sell an idea on this site.

You could suggest regularly drinking water on this site, and yet still be met with howls and stupidity. How will I drink me tea if Im already drinking water.

You do know that some of us cant carry around a glass throughout the day.

No, no. Drinking water is a wef plot. Its correlated with bloodclots.

you can propose ideas away, but if those ideas are dum, like yours, then you will be told so.

france isn't going to waste their time helping out a country that has constantly insulted them, blamed them for something that isn't their problem or that they are responsible for, all because the country blaming them has become a failed state and won't grow up and govern itself.

quite right as well, i'm with the french.
