When we have that new carrier in commission we will be able to pack thousands in and bring them straight to Blighty.

Farcical stuff. If they intend moving the population of Africa to Europe, just fly em in and be done.
Report TheBaron • June 28, 2017 11:03 AM BST
The mass movement of people from North Africa to Southern Europe was predicted over 30 years ago and there is no reason it will stop.

Turn the boats back it would stop within weeks. The EU is knowingly doing the job for the smugglers. Fly em in and cut the smugglers out. Will there be enough room in Europe? I have no idea how many Africans there are.

Italy in a mess trying to cope with the immigrants according to the news today.

21 boats rescued in the last few days alone.

It's amazing what people will stand for.
Report Injera • June 28, 2017 4:55 PM BST
That would be 'rescued'.

All sorts of suggestions the boats are taking them so far then radioing for help and the NGOs pick up the fare and take them to Italy!

TAXI!!!

Presumably Italy gives most of them a rail ticket to Northern Europe.?

NGO = people smugglers

Seems as if the Italians have had enough and have threatened to keep the rescue boats from returning to sea.About time imo,as said below its like a taxi service for them.

This is what happens if these countries are decolonised.
Report lfc1971 • July 3, 2017 9:02 PM BST
They shouldn't be coming here, we should be going there and telling them what to do.
If they aren't prepared to listen there is not much to be done about that.

The while operation, NGOs, boats, the lot is 100% funded by the globalists.  Those greedy f***rs will kill the planet off long before climate change even gets a sniff.
Report detraveller • July 3, 2017 9:57 PM BST
'Rescued' is a word used to make you and me feel better about the whole operation(Just like liberation instead of invasion and democracy instead of our chosen leader). There was an event about a month and a half ago where the Italian NGOs were fired at by Libyan coastguards but they still managed to 'rescue' a bunch of libyans and brought them to Italy. That's how desperate they are in bringing these people to Europe. Also worth noting is that the Libyan coastguard is funded AND armed by the EU(interestingly, also to help stop illegal migrants Grin). Basically EU is completely in control of this operation.

We could just swap Europe for Africa and be done.
