Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

French Navy escorts 167 more migrants into British waters, 1,830 migrants have come to UK in 2020

Jun 7, 2020 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The UK government is passively sitting by while illegal migrants flood into their country via the English Channel. A record 167 illegal migrants just swarmed into the UK in a single day. On another day, it was 91 Muslim migrants.

The bulk of these migrants have arrived since the coronavirus lockdown, with about 1,359 migrants arriving since March, out of a total of 1,830 for 2020 so far.

Less than two weeks ago, Jihad Watch reported that the French navy, along with British authorities, were actually engaging in people smuggling during the coronavirus lockdown, with UK taxpayers footing the bill. This activity resembled that of the people smugglers of Libya.

Less than 2 days ago, it also emerged that Muslim migrants crossing the English Channel were threatening to drown their own children to repel French ships.

“ANOTHER French Navy ship escorts dinghy into British waters as a record 167 more migrants land in UK today including up to 60 in one vessel,” by Amie Gordon, MailOnline, June 2, 2020:

A French naval vessel escorted more than 100 migrants into British waters unchallenged this morning as the total to have reached the UK this year edges closer to the total seen throughout the whole of 2019.

In total, 167 migrants are believed to have landed in Kent today which is a record. The first group of men, women and children landed at Samphire Hoe beach near Dover, Kent this morning.

The dawn operation saw several small boats nearly 12 miles off the coast of Dover on the French-British sea border shortly before 7.30am.

It means the crossings today could take the number of migrants to have reached Britain already this year to 1,830.

Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage condemned the actions of the French navy in escorting the migrants into UK waters.

He said: ‘Despite all our money been given to France this unacceptable practice of handing over illegal migrants continues. The British public are appalled by this.’

It is thought there were up to eight vessels involved in what are the first crossings of the month.

Border Force and RNLI ships picked them up and took them to Dover harbour for processing.

Dover and Deal Tory MP Natalie Elphicke said today: ‘These arrivals will only stop when migrants and traffickers alike know they will not succeed.

‘That means making the legal tools available to the Home Secretary to return illegal entrants – and I welcome her commitment to do this, as well as today’s announcement to introduce quarantine measures at the border that I have been calling for.

‘I have set out a detailed action plan that includes tackling criminal gangs and new investment in our borders. ‘We need to be clear and robust when it comes to tackling security and ending the abuses of European human rights laws.’

There were 741 arrivals in May, a record for a single month. Some 1,359 migrants have completed the journey since lockdown began in March.

The crossings today will push the year’s total close to the 1,890 who arrived on small boats throughout the whole of 2019…..

      The UK will die by it’s own hand. If the Brits had just an ounce of self preservation left they would shoot holes in the boats and let the invaders swim back to France. It’s a war . England is a country, not a refugee camp for a million pretenders.

    Why doesn’t the British Navy escort them right back to French waters. Or better yet – transport them to waters off Germany and put them back in their boats and allow them to disembark there?
    Merkel loves these folks!

    Germany: Migrants and foreign corona patients are flown in, sick Germans are not

    German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas has always set anti-German priorities. This irresponsible behaviour is now once again becoming apparent.

    For while Germany has cared for more than 200 foreign Corona patients free of charge (i.e. to the detriment of the German taxpayer), the Foreign Minister is playing the tough guy with the sick Germans who are abroad.

    The Social Democratic comrade has now announced that the federal government will not transport back corona-infected vacationers to Germany this summer. “In any case, anyone who becomes infected on vacation cannot assume that we will bring them back to Germany”, Maas told the newspaper “Bild am Sonntag”. He continued: “Of course, in acute emergencies our foreign missions are always ready to provide consular support. But: “The Federal Government will not be able to send planes again this summer to bring German tourists home.” On Wednesday, Maas announced a gradual lifting of the travel warnings. In an interview with the newspaper “Bild am Sonntag”, Maas said that the travel warnings would be limited to EU countries.

    They want to be sure “that our citizens, when they travel, are as safe as possible with regard to the spread of the virus”. The Foreign Minister has not specified when the travel warning will also be lifted for countries outside the EU, such as Turkey. “There are talks with the Turkish government. We will not maintain the travel warning permanently”, said Maas. However, when the time will come will depend on how the pandemic develops.Maas warned that he will issue new travel warnings against these holiday destinations very quickly if corona protection measures are violated: “The distance and hygiene rules also apply to the hotspots. If they are not observed, travel warnings can turn into travel warnings again.”

    In this context it is also noteworthy that more than 15,000 migrants have entered Germany by plane to date. The expenses do not matter, they are not Germans after all.

      What has been occurring though out the west appears suicidal, irrational, reckless e.g. open boarders, population replacement, global peace, one world religion etc. I fail to understand the reasoning and/or events which lead western leaders to adopt these disastrous policies. Was it solely inspired by greedy globalism/ pathological narcissism or something else? It would appear they have guaranteed bloodshed for all of us! What is the puzzle piece I am missing in all this?

    So very sad to watch what was once a beautiful country slowly commit suicide.

      We need a new Alliance. Free counties united in the preservation of their separate countries. Nationalists, not globalists. separate but equal joined together to push back the Globalist tide.

    Mayor Khan must be delighted at all the face masks worn in London getting more like Pakistan every day! Even the men are wearing them.

    According to the feature article:

    “Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage …said: ‘Despite all our money been given to France this unacceptable practice of handing over illegal migrants continues.”

    I don’t understand this. Why is the UK giving money to France at all???

    It looks like an invasion by migration and will end with the invaders disrupting the British society. These migrants will not become British citizens, they will become a major burden, with rape and death of the good English people.
