Default We are not the only ones with border issues

British officials plan to block migrants after 10th day of arrivals.

Interesting quote from the article:

Quote:
Johnson has promised new laws to block migrants crossing the English Channel, characterizing them as "very bad," "dangerous" and "criminal."
Trump said the same thing, and was branded a racist.

The UK is probably already lost by the mass importation of Muslims. Whole areas, like the Tower Hamlets, Birmingham, and other areas, are dangerous no go zones, just like Minneapolis is here.

It's good that they are trying to keep out more problems, but they are kind of where we are.....it's too late to save the UK from becoming the 3rd World, all they can do is slow down the decline as best they can.

Good on Boris for taking action. I don't know if they have anything in their laws about Letters of Marque and Reprisal, but if they do, that's what they should do. Let private contractors interdict the smuggling ships, detain the crew and the illegals, and then repatriate them wherever they came from, seizing the ships for their trouble. Those transport ships, especially the ones belonging to NGO's, must be worth quite a bit of money.
