Calais has been a virtual war zone for some time now. Just over a year ago, this was the scene:
Marauding gangs attempted to storm the motorwaey leading to the port as the crisis in the town spirals out of control….Refugees lit fires and barricaded the road as they tried to ambush traffic heading to the ferry terminal. The chaos forced traffic to a standstill for over an hour as heavily armed officers desperately battled to restore order.
The scene is similar to the Muslim no-go zones in Sweden. Now the migrant melee is back, causing Richard Burnett of the Road Haulage Association to implore the French army to deploy troops and help “protect British drivers from escalating migrant violence in Calais.”
Victims of jihad terror, violence and attacks keep piling up in Europe, as trouble spots increase. While law and order is becoming a thing of the past, absurd European leaders continue to advocate for more Muslim migrants, and even pressure the Visegrad group for refusing to let their countries become ruins by flinging open their doors to a Muslim migrant invasion.
“‘Send in troops’: Calls to protect UK drivers from Calais migrant violence”, by Giles Sheldrick, Express, February 2, 2018:
A series of fights between mainly Afghan and Eritrean men desperate to reach the UK erupted on Thursday, leaving 22 in hospital – five with gunshot wounds.
Now there are fears a trucker or tourist could be killed unless the French army is drafted in to urgently restore order.
Richard Burnett, of the Road Haulage Association, said: “If traffickers are using guns, that changes the game completely and it’s time for the army to be deployed.
“Walls and fences don’t solve the problem and each day the risk of attack to hauliers increases. They must be protected.
“We don’t want to see tourists or truckers caught in the firing line.”
It is just a fortnight before half-term, when tens of thousands of British families will be using ferry and Eurotunnel terminals.
French Interior Minister Gerard Collomb said: “This is a level of violence that hasn’t been seen before.”
And the disorder has sparked fears of a return to the chaos witnessed at the height of the migrant crisis in 2016, when 10,000 UK-bound refugees flooded into Calais and formed the notorious “Jungle” camp.
The violence comes weeks after France’s President Emmanuel Macron struck a deal with Prime Minister Theresa May under which British taxpayers will pay £44.5million more towards border security – on top of the £360 million already spent since 2010 – while taking in more migrants.
Dover MP Charlie Elphicke described the situation as “shocking”, adding: “We cannot have a return to the Calais chaos. The French need to get these migrants out of Calais and arrest the ruthless people traffickers.”
The Home Office said last night: “The incidents in Calais are of concern and we will continue to monitor the situation closely. Our French partners have responded quickly and robustly to restore order.”….

FFS, shut the borders, and ship the vermin back where they came from. In handcuffs and leg-irons if necessary.
It’s them or us now.
Phil Copson says
It’s the mind-boggling lack of logic and sense of responsibility that gets me – the French “authorities” allow migrants into France on one side, and then claim that it is somehow the UK’s responsibility either to accept them or pay for the French to contain them at the Channel coast.
No – you let them in – you sort out your own problems. Or should we try the same approach ?
“Hey, Macron ! I’ve foolishly allowed a large and savage dog into my house – how much will you give me not to usher it into yours ?”
Peter says
Hi Phil
I just spoke to Macron.
He said he would give you 5 savage dogs in exchange for your one.
Does that logic sound familiar?
Anne Smith says
The Fench authorites have done away with borders – the Schengen agreement – so these savages have easy access to France. Unfortunately for them the British are not signatories to Schengen, although that is where they actually want to go, so they pile up in Calais, trying to get passage across the Channel.
The French authorities are anxious for them to get across and leave France. That is the real problem.
What is totally unbelievable is that there is a very vocal section of left wing UK opinion and “slebs” who want them to come across – the nutty singer Lily Allen being one of the noisiest. One cannot understand what they think this bunch of evil, violent, dangerous young men have to offer what was once a well ordered society in Britain.
Lily Allen and her chums campaigned hard to let the lying cheating “young children” in, and also campaigned against any form of check, (teeth, bones, etc.) to make sure they were genuinely young. Instead screens were erected so the Press could not photograph the beards.
If we did not have such a weak and feeble Prime Minister we could put a stop to this nonsense almost overnight.

Well, where are the people to organize, and fight back even harder, with common sense and put a stop to it, and say, NO, we are not going to let in young MEN trying to pass off as ‘children’ and take advantage of us?
Come on people, ‘we’ can whine about this PC crap all day, but we know, there are those instances when ‘fire needs to be fought by fire’, that’s all there is to it.
RichardL says
France sent SOF to Calais yesterday. Imagine that! A failed state. I predict that Germany will be ground zero, and soon.
John Butler says
Let’s have SAS Snatch Squads riding shotgun on the lorries to nab these sons of bitches and then stick them on a C130 and fly them home to Somalia and Eritrea. No discussion.
Ray Jarman says
John, I was thinking the same thing but instead of C-130, use a V-22 Osprey which does not require a landing strip to dump the garbage back into the wastelands of the Middle East and North Africa. An added advantage is that it can fly at a much lower altitude.
Guy Forester says
Does the osprey have a tail ramp? A C-130 does, no need to land.
Ray Jarman says
Good point. I was simply trying to be a little humane but I forgot, the sludge is not human and therefore requires no sympathy.
elee says
So whose idea was it to give Calais back to the French? Clement Attlee before his time!
Guy Forester says
Brits and French need to wake up and smell the coffee. Time is about up, you are about to become outcasts in your homelands.
Fire Macron and May. Fire your legislators. Elect people that will properly defend your borders, fund the military and police to do their jobs, put judges in place that are willing to defend your homeland, not undermine it.
Good luck on all of the above, you will need it. Your political leaders have screwed you over and you went along with it.
Anne Smith says
Dear Guy – if only we could fire May. If only.
Guy Forester says
It seems to me, that in many elections, no matter what the polls say, the same set of political hacks get in, regardless of party. It was nothing short of miraculous that Trump won.
I think that the amount of vote fraud is far worse than anyone thinks. Are people really voting for these useful idiots that run our governments? Year after year, despite the stupid things they say and do?
I realize your system is not like ours. But, if enough Brits protested in the streets, called on parliament, and voted in some different people, you might get some results. When politicos sense that the gravy train is about to leave the station without them, things may change. I hope.
Otherwise, you have my deepest sympathy.
Gjallarhornet says
Let’s say there is a crime reported in Calais city, not the camp, said to have been perpetrated by a foreigner. Good look luck to the police in catching the guilty man
Because here in Europe when the mass influx of foreigners is so vast and enormous as it is now, control and containment becomes nearly impossible.
Imagine a guy from let’s say … Somalia committing rape and and running away in Europe in the 20ies. He would be caught, identified and jailed, within – maximum – a couple of days. Now? He just runs away and blends into an urban mass of strangers, most of them with no papers or forged papers, or he flees to another western country, with nothing linking him to his misdeeds. There the viscous cycle will start anew.
This happens all the time in my country now. Some alien commits a crime. Before the culprit can be identified, he has disappeared. Police won’t find him, bogged down as they are in a quagmire of unresolved cases, dwindling resources and an an ever growing multitude of strangers roaming the streets. Since the criminal is new in the country there is often no database or similar tools the police can use.
And with this, all resemblance of an orderly society goes out the window. From another country, Sweden, we can read about Moroccan youth who has taken themselves to Sweden (real youth, not fakers this time). They live on the streets, commit crime and are not registered. The state of Morocco does not want to even touch the problem, let alone help. So these kids can rob somebody, and slip away quietly Nobody knows who they are or where they live or distinguish them from one each other.
Meaning, that if you are robbed (or worse) by one of them, nobody will know where to look or who to look for. This is actually a very dangerous situation for our countries. Calais Camp is just the mirror image of the future for Europe.
LeftisruiningCanada says
Good summary, and very true i think.
And God help you if during and attack by one of these guys you manage to subdue him, because you’re the one that the State knows all about, and is happy to prosecute for defending yourself.
Guy Forester says
The US southern border works the same way. Most murders in LA county go unsolved.
Eric jones says
Calais is under attack. Call out the army.

Mark A. says
What have we done to provoke these peaceful migrants into using guns?
We must have some serious reflection on the inherent discrimination in our western societies?
We must welcome more of these people into our countries…
Diversity is our strength…
Etc, etc etc, blah, blah, blah, sound of more hot air being generated by western politicians…
LeftisruiningCanada says
Sounds like a whoopie cushion to me

“‘Send in troops’: Calls to protect UK drivers from Muslim migrant violence in Calais
………………………….
This is f*cking insane. French and British authorities need to clean this up.
More:

………………………….
Why are they “desperate” to reach the UK? France isn’t a war zone–or at least it wasn’t until these violent Muslim thugs showed up there. They’ll be just as bad if they get into Britain.
StellaSaidSo says
Britain’s generous welfare system is the chief attraction for these gimmegrants.
If the gov’t switched off the welfare tap, the invasion would stop. But the Muslims already in Britain would riot. An election would be called, which Jeremy Corbyn would almost certainly win. The welfare tap would then be turned up to full volume, the invasion would resume, and Britain’s descent into chaos would proceed at an even faster pace.
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

Well, too freakin’ bad…The British either want to ‘save’ their country or they don’t…Start making laws that cut back on handouts for immigrants, get tough on deporting illegal criminals, shut down mosques preaching Sharia/Jihad, and get ready for any riot that might happen.
Britain had to deal with a hell of a lot more than just ‘rioting’ a few decades ago…So where is their resolve?
Anne Smith says
Who is paying for their treatment in hospital?
Guy Forester says
Who do you think? The UN? The “migrants”?
Charles T Lawson says
Thats what the EU is doing , getting the immigrants toriot at calai ,and distrupt the lorries from coming to the UK in order to cause a downward thrust in our ECOMONY .So it looks like that BREXIT is not working ,And there are the so called treason traitors in this country helping them do it. Some one with experiance please look into this .
