Risking death crossing the English Channel in a pedalo - BBC News

More than 17,000 migrants and asylum seekers have crossed the English Channel so far in 2021, some of them saving up thousands of pounds to pay smugglers to organise their crossings.
But many, especially younger people travelling alone, have no money and no contacts in Calais.
Over the last year, film maker Julien Goudichaud followed a group of young Sudanese migrants as they went to extreme lengths to try to get to the UK.

Moreover, not wishing to lower races has got nothing to do with "isolation", it is common sense to maintain the demographic, cultural and racial make up of a society. *murdoch press monopoly?* This is the left wing version of the George Soros conspiracy. Everyone that disgarees with your metropolitanism must be brainwashed by the "Murdoch press". *Innocent and hard working people* I never said they were guilty nor lazy, I said I didn't want to share a nation with them. *As long as they contribute taxes to that government and provide an overall benefit to that country...* This is just an extremely materialistic and un-human view of society. Instead of having a culture, a heritage, a history and a people, you just consider human beings as resources that provide services and provide labour. You would make the same argument about horses on a farm, "As long as the horse pulls its weight around here...". If you consider the value of a citizen the taxes & services they provide, you are by default destroying the moral & social fabric of society. You are measuring the value of a citizen by graphs & numbers. Furthermore, even if I was to objectively prove the economically parasitical relationship these lower races have with us - using your own metrics as to how to value a person's right to be here - you would refuse to agree with me, and come up with some other excuse to justify their presence here. *Brexit was simply a vote of stupidity and self inflicted damage..* I voted Leave with the specific intent of causing economic damage to the UK. Our current society is morally, demographically and culturally sick. The economic conditions of the UK - our productivity - props this system up. I value society as having more interests than 'GDP go up'.

1 alot of racists 2 maybe problem with finding a job that could let them live a normal live 3 maybe they have family/friends there that could help them 4 English language, it's so easy if you really focus on it, I tried to learn better English in qourantine and I can speak it good and some even come from former British colonies.

[@amilying363]

@@LeMecAyoub 1 - there's way way more racists in U.K 2 - it's easier to find a job in France than it is to risk your life trying to find a job here in an already full country. 3 - if they had family and friends here they wouldn't need to cross illegally on a dingy boat. 4 - The English language is the hardest and most complex language you can possibly learn. Nice try.

[@EricaNernie]

I've always wondered why, instead of paying a smuggler, they just don't band together, learn to sail (not hard now with the internet), and buy a small sailing dinghy. Much cheaper than paying a smuggler. But I don't want to give them any ideas.

[@jerryorange6983]

As Brexiteers said that Dublin agreement was wrong and they will get a better one. It looks it was really bad for the illegals (not refugees who can apply for asylum in the EU) because hardly anyone was crossing the channel before Brexit comparing with the current situation.

Now once they get on the other side there is legal basis to send them back to France on top of that all failed asylum seekers have got another chance in the UK because once your claim is rejected in one EU country it applies to all EU countries. 17.4 million voted to do be a part of it.
