Finally, something is being done about the illegal Muslim migrants who have been swarming into the UK via the English Channel, despite the coronavirus lockdown, with help from the French navy.
Jihad Watch reported this just days ago:
Boris Johnson has been rather quiet as Muslim migrants, many with coronavirus, continue to invade his country illegally, some with help from the French navy. The migrants are from Iraq, Syria, Kuwait, and Iran. Amid the coronavirus lockdown and Antifa/Black Lives Matters anarchy, the hijrah continues, largely under the radar.

“UK: Suspected People Smuggling Gang Busted in Illegal Boat Migrants Probe,” by Kurt Zindulka, Breitbart, July 26, 2020:
The UK has arrested 11 people suspected of being involved in a people-smuggling gang, which is believed to have facilitated illegal boat migrants crossing the English Channel from France, the Home Office has revealed.
Police in Britain raided 12 properties in London and Sheffield, where they seized some £150,000 cash and two vehicles and arrested 11 people. The operation was carried out by Immigration Enforcement Criminal and Financial Investigations force, who were assisted by the Border Force, the Metropolitan Police, the National Crime Agency (NCA), as well as French law enforcement.
Those arrested are believed to have been involved in an organised criminal gang that financially supported the illegal boat crossings, and actively assisted migrants entering the UK.
Announcing the raid on Saturday, Home Secretary Priti Patel said per The Telegraph: “I will not tolerate ruthless criminals looking to break the law by smuggling people into the UK illegally. I will put whatever resource is necessary to dismantle these gangs and stop these dangerous crossings, including going after the groups financing these criminal operations.”
“This is a clear message to those behind these reckless crossings. We will find you and we will stop at nothing to put you behind bars and strip you of your ill-gotten gains,” Patel added.
The arrests come as the number of illegal migrants recorded to have reached British shores reached 3,285 people, a new record and quickly approaching double the amount for the entirety of last year, which was 1,890.
Two weeks ago, the Home Secretary met with the recently installed French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin. Patel and her French counterpart announced the creation of a Franco-British Operational Research Unit that will be tasked with going after the scourge of people-smuggling gangs.
The task force will also attempt to gather intelligence for the purpose of preventing migrants from attempting to cross the Channel.
Yet, the two sides have so far failed to reach an agreement that would see migrant boats returned to France while in the process of making the illegal journey. Both the French and British governments have used the excuse of a set of non-binding international maritime laws, which allegedly prevent ships from intervening except at the request of the illegal migrants.
This excuse, however, did not stop Australia from preventing boat crossings during former Prime Minister Tony Abbott’s Operation Sovereign Borders, which saw illegal migration plummet….

Suggestion: return all passengers straight away to France: no discussion.
The flow would stop.
mortimer says
Prosecuting the boat owners and pilots will stop the trade, especially if the sentence are very severe, namely, confiscation of the boat, loss of licenses, fines and time. There are enough coast guard to do the job of picking them up and putting them in handcuffs. If the illegals get handcuffed as criminals as well it will have a sobering effect on others. All of Europe cannot afford the price of the invasion, the crime, the misogyny, the kafir-o-phobia of the invaders.
We cannot have large numbers of migrants coming in who despise and hate us.
Beleaguered Briton says
Take them straight back to France in a fast power boat: no discussion.
The few will stop.

Priti Patel is a disappointment as Home Secretary. She talks tough on migration but very little gets done.
Crusader 666 says
So true! The British government won the last election by talking tough on illegal immigration, but has been bribed into ineffectiveness by bags of Saudi gold coins in Swiss bank accounts.
Do the British have no helicopter gunships to repel invaders, as was portrayed in the movie “The March”? In the movie, a charismatic African Muslim preacher leads his followers to the Strait of Gibraltar, chanting “We are poor, because you are rich!”. How will the Euros fudge it when they are faced, not with a rabble of people in leaky rubber boats, but with an army of millions of Jihadis DEMANDING the right to enter Europe? Just asking.
Keith O says
This article doesn’t make any mention of what steps the Brit government are actually doing to stop the invasion. All that is happening is the production of hot air, smoke and mirrors.
And as for Tony Abbot? He is a “see u next Tuesday” and is universally hated by us. His one achievement was to stop the boats, even if he did nothing about any of the other problems Australia faced.

UK: 11 arrested for involvement in people-smuggling gang that transported Muslim migrants across English Channel
………….
Well, this is good. But given there are thousands of Muslims flooding into Britain, there have to be many more than eleven traffickers helping them.
Kilauea says
If you sink them, they won’t come.

OLD GUY says
Awe the Muslims didn’t get the message and if they did they wouldn’t follow the rules anyway.
This is the continued muslim migration invasion of Europe in action. It is a brilliant plan if you send your military to invade a country they will defend their country with force. If you send your fighting force in as immigrants they will welcome you and spend millions to support you until you can take control of the government from within.

“Allah is the best deceiver/planner”.
This is a re-enactment of Muslims’ arrival in Yathrib as ‘refugees’ to exploit tribal divisions. Within 5 years of Mohamad’s arrival, he had killed, enslaved, or exiled the entire original population, and today the former Yathrib (renamed Medina) is a “holy” city restricted to Muslims only (as is Mecca, which used to be pagan). Muslims celebrate that history, and cherish Medina and Mecca.
While Muslims celebrate their horrible record of terrible conquest, westerners are told to be embarrassed about everything.
Western countries are told not to have a Muslim ban, but Muslim countries (e.g. KSA) are allowed to have a non-Muslim ban. KSA knows how to plot an invasion, and how to prevent one, but the west has forgotten.

All true, OLD GUY and curious.

Don’t blame the French; they do what they can to discourage the illegal immigrants. But British “charities” are operating in Northern France helping “migrants” planning make their way to Britain.
This is from the website of one, Care4Calais:- “French authorities have conducted the largest eviction of refugees in Calais since 2016, destroying tents, sleeping bags, possessions and food. Our volunteers are searching the area for those left behind. We have found people sleeping on bare tarmac, or wandering for days, hungry, dehydrated and exhausted. We’re working day and night, to provide food, water, sleeping bags and tarpaulins to people in desperate need. We urgently need your help to buy essential supplies.”
They might be desperate people, but thanks to Covid19 Britain is a country massively in debt with millions about to be unemployed. It simply can’t afford to take in people from alien cultures who will need to be subsidised indefinitely, whatever their background or their story.

France is not doing that much to stop the invasion–of course, France herself should be deporting Muslim invaders on her own shore.
