He'll probably suggest the UK should fund quad bikes to allow the 'illegals' to get to the end of the 1,056 yard wall quicker.

9 September 2016 22:24317701'Plagiarize
Let no one else's work evade your eyes
Remember why the good Lord made your eyes
So don't shade your eyes
But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize
(Only be sure always to call it please "research")'
AND I just wrote the verse above....... 
"We are living in very strange times, and they are likely to get a lot stranger before we bottom out"

TerryQuis custodiet ipsos custodes? - 19 September 2016 13:33318075Judging by the number of residents of the 'jungle' who now ride push bikes I must assume they intend cycling here. They must have commendable and immense stamina to have cycled all the way from the countries they left their woman and children in.howard mcsweeney1 likes this

- 26 September 2016 18:37318385Unless they send them back by the next ship on the same day, they will keep coming,I feel having more patrol boats will not work because when they pick them up they bring over to the UK, when they should be taken back to France, after all the UK is where they want to be, so I think they are looking to be pick up and landed in the UK where it will take many months to see if they can stay or not, most are let out on bail and never get found again.But as I have said before if I was one of them I would be doing the same as they are.Button, Brian Dixon and howard mcsweeney1 like this
