It has just been announced that we will give France another £660 Million over the next three years to continue with their highly successful 'anti migrant policies'. Government supporters must be jubilant.
We have now given France over £1.3 Billion to help stop the continuous influx. It was Rishi Sunak who first gave them £500 Million back in 2023, since when 84,000 illegal immigrants (that we know of) have managed to paddle across The Channel.
I don't want anyone to get upset, but I'm going to suggest something quite radical.
Rather than spend all our hundreds of £Millions on something that WE ALL KNOW won't work, why not send one of our 'all immigrants welcome' Ministers to Australia to see how their government's 'Operation Sovereign Borders' policy works (above). A round ticket, and a 2 day stay in Oz, would cost about £5,000 so we could make a saving of £659,995,000; which I'm sure would make Rachel from Accounts very happy.
Australia has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to illegal immigration; and it works !
Can't the UK do the same ? It's only those 20 miles between Calais and Dover that need to be patrolled !
It's not exactly the Straits of Hormuz.

Cro, you are too radical!
Go for it Cro. I am liking your latest common sense posts. Chucking loads of money at a crisis will not make one bit of difference to the outcome. Rupert has a better idea.
I can't do anything about it. I was built like that.
How come they don't understand that. The evidence is there for all to see.
Trouble is with the pesky French that the ironically titled, "border control officers" go off for a two hour lunch break at midday. While they are guzzling their "plats de jour" and necking cheap Magnon red wine, the migrants launch their homemade rubber dinghies. Both the rubber material and the outboard motors are manufactured in France by Emmanuel Macron's thriving travel facilitation company "Bon Voyage".
And when they're not eating, they just conveniently happen to be looking the other way, as a 'petite demoiselle' goes by.
Sounds like a money laundering scheme to me. Our politicians are millionaires by their second term. I hate to be so cynical but this is reality. (see Zelensky's bank account)
On a happier note, this robot was having a bad day. The end might not be as near as we think. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXXSppRgJ8z/
Sadly, I don't have an Instagram account, so I can't see it. The worst embezzlers are the Hamas leaders; they steal £BILLIONS.
I don't have an Instagram account either. It opens in YouTube also. When they hauled off the carcass on a stretcher, well, that made my day! The Somalians are brilliant people. They have set new records for corruption over here. Under Biden we sent $350 Billion for the Ukraine through NATO. How much do you think got through to the poor folks on the ground after Hunter and Joe got their share and all the other folks down the line. I can't let myself think about that too
much. I look for things to laugh about, especially at myself. It keeps my head from blowing up like a robots!
It's amazing the amount of corruption there is in high offices. And the amounts of money is staggering. Millions means nothing to these people, they think in Billions. All the VERY expensive property in London is bought by Russians, Chinese, Saudis, Iranians, etc. They just buy and buy. The supply of money is never ending.
No problem. We just print more. Monopoly money. And yet, I have great hope. Even without meds! ;) God bless your day, or night for you.
Great idea.
I'd like to know more about how Australia manages immigration.
Paying France to manage immigration to the UK does seem absurd.
Investigating the Australian model seems like a good idea.
I need a printer. Or a Money Tree.
The Aussies seem to have it right, whereas the Brits so obviously have it wrong. They send them back, we bring them over.
I can't help thinking that in time that the RNLI will become a reviled and hated institution, that's if they aren't already. Along with our own Border Force, questions must be asked.
I'm already hearing stories from last Summer where RNLI orange bucket cash donations staff are facing the wrath of angry English holidaymakers around various UK seaside resorts with the general public no longer so keen to donate money into those collection buckets.
Public funds are drying up despite the RNLI's desperate tv adverts. It's now quite clear that the RNLI are being bankrolled by our government despite the hush hush by Westminster.
And looking at that Australian solution image above, I can hardly believe my eyes. Why can't we do that?
With all that sea around them, the Aussies manage a zero-tolerance policy. It seems very suspicious that we can't do the same with our tiny bit of channel.
I didn't know about any RNLI involvement, but nothing surprises me any more.
Totally agree
If you lived, as I do, on an island 3 ferry-steaming- hours from the Mainland, you'd be exceptionally grateful for the RNLI.
