How's that going to work then? The economic migrants still want to get to England. They're not going to stay in "refugee" centres scattered across France.

It's all tarte dans le ciel.

Preferably using a giant catapult?

However, part of the problem is "wherever they came from".  Many economic migrants destroy their passports.  Many lie about which country they came from.  And many countries won't accept passportless individuals.  Only by making being an economic migrant extremely unpleasant is the flow of the detritus of the third world going to stop.

Cant recall having these problems when the Colonel and Saddam were in power.

Most of the ones I see in the jungle look to be fairly strapping big healthy looking African lads, wheres the old ones, wheres the women and children?

...one part of a possible answer: Europeans invest heavily in local training programs in African countries...European companies then hire these trained locals to produce the goods the Europeans need/want/desire...a virtuous circle begins where more money is circulated through poorer economies, keeping more potential migrants at home and creating local demand for such goods...another part, of course, is to sink the boats far from shore...

Heres a better idea, how about these fit strapping young lads overthrow their corrupt dictators and redistribute the wealth.
Oh thats all fine and dandy, just one problem, tribalism.

Back to your fair and valid point about sinking the boats.

Perhaps we could use this for a base for coonents  comments !!!

She certainly stands by the die hard traditions of her fellow libtards as that comment clearly shows.
