France: Calais mayor says UK has ‘declared maritime war’ by stopping illegal Muslim boat migrants

Aug 15, 2020 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Reminder: Calais became known as the “Calais jungle” and for good reason: it became a violent no-go zone when it was invaded by Muslim migrants. 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 violence became a threat to truckers passing through, as well as to tourists. In response, France made the decision to build a  “Trump-style” wall to keep illegal Muslim migrants from crossing into Britain from Calais.

But now the France-Britain friendship has taken a bad turn. Tensions between France and the UK are building rapidly ever since the French were caught red handed escorting illegal migrant boats from France across the English Channel into the UK. France then demanded $39,000,000 from the UK to take their own illegal migrants back. All this took place while thousands of illegals – some with coronavirus — continued almost daily to invade the UK. The influx is so unsustainable that Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage has called for a declaration of a national emergency.

So while France tries to palm off its own Muslim migrant conundrum onto the UK, Calais Mayor Natacha Bouchart throws a temper tantrum right “after British immigration minister Chris Philp travelled to Paris to try to secure a deal that would see migrants immediately returned to France.”

“The British themselves have created this hot air by not reviewing their own reception systems and are content to hand out lessons and by subjecting the people of Calais to this situation for too long,” Bouchart pronounced.

Note that Bouchart takes no responsibility for France not reviewing its own “reception systems,” either. Rather than deal with this issue with prudent border controls, both French and British officials’ fear of being called “Islamophobic” and “racist” takes priority.

“Calais Mayor: Stopping Illegal Boat Migrants Is Declaration of ‘Maritime War,’” by Kurt Zindulka, Breitbart, August 12, 2020:

The Mayor of Calais claimed that Britain has “declared maritime war” by floating the idea of sending the Royal Navy to the English Channel to prevent further waves of illegal boat migrants from reaching British shores from France.

The outburst from Mayor Natacha Bouchart came one day after British immigration minister Chris Philp travelled to Paris to try to secure a deal that would see migrants immediately returned to France.

“The British themselves have created this hot air by not reviewing their own reception systems and are content to hand out lessons and by subjecting the people of Calais to this situation for too long,” Bouchart pronounced.

“It is a declaration of maritime war,” she claimed in comments reported by The Sun.

“Here, we are hostile to it [the Royal Navy]. Rather than accept migrants who would work in the black market, Boris Johnson would do better than to teach us lessons, would be better to create better laws to accept people in his own country,” the mayor fumed.

“Technically I don’t even know how they would do [it], and I think the [French] government would oppose it,” she said, while saying that the row over illegal migrants has been used to damage the “image” and economy of France.

The leader of the city that is home to one of the most notorious migrant camps in France — which earned the moniker of the ‘Calais Jungle’ — called upon the British government to “take responsibility”. She said the British should establish “reception centres” for asylum seekers on the French side of the Channel, to expedite the asylum process.

France has so far been largely unwilling to prevent migrants from setting sail to Britain. The French Navy has gone as far as to assist migrant vessels into British territorial waters, where they are picked up by UK Border Force and brought ashore to be processed by immigration officials.

The French government has reportedly demanded that the British government pay an additional £30 million in exchange for France better patrolling the route, and immediately returning migrants to Dunkirk in northern France. The payment would be in addition to the £100 million sent to the French since 2015.

To date, there have been over 4,100 illegal migrants recorded to have made the journey across the Channel, ultimately reaching Britain. However, as the figure only reflects those migrants who are caught and the Home Office no longer counts migrants who are allegedly under the age of 18 in the official toll, the true number is likely higher.

A migrant charity worker in France told The Sun: “We’ve spoken to people intercepted en route to the UK who have told us how babies and infants are getting into dinghies for free. Younger children and teenagers are being allowed on for just a few hundred pounds a time.”….

    what actually is that, a refugee…?
    The other day I read something like “he prepared his flight for years and the family was gathering money….” Is that a flight? Isn’t that a contradiction in itself?
    And what is a migrant? A wanderer, when properly translated.
    What is a wanderer holding up public traffic by force and intimidation, banding up in gangs?
    A criminal, I would say, who forfeited any right of entry to a country’s territory from thereon.
    And what about a response to gangs of “wanderers” banding together against country’s law, posing a physical threat to those they force to carry them along?
    Posing a collective threat, I would say, a military answer would do the best job, as an act of a country’s self-defense. There would be peace and quiet once and for all.
    I am a Nazi, probably…the word has become so void of meaning by overuse.

    Why does France want to ef up the UK? I thought Europe and UK cultures are/were very similar. Someone’s getting paid.

      Aug 15, 2020 at 1:44 pm

      UK and continental cultures have significant differences, not least in law (e.g. the British insistence on innocence until proved guilty). And England and France.have been the friendliest of neighbours, as the history books show.

          I wonder if this antagonism from this French clown towards the UK is also partly because the UK decided to get the hell out the EU and all its idiocy. Maybe this is a bit of payback aggro from the French towards the UK for daring to get sensible and telling the EU to piss off. I suppose it is also the French trying to dump the unwelcome Muslim invaders onto the UK rather than try to deal with them themselves.

    We’ve got the same problems with illegals in this country and because most of our southern border is open we get ‘ refugees’ from all over the world, but mostly from Central and South America. They use children they’ve rented to pose as a family to more quickly access all the welfare. There’s so much money being made at our southern border, by movement of illict drugs, child and human sex trafficking, gangs that prey on the populace and coyotes – people who guide those who pay enough through the desert, sometimes leaving them to die. It’s horrible. But Britain, with Islam it comes complete with it’s own political system enforced thourgh religion (Muslim) and law (Sharia). A totalitarian theocracy that is brainwashed into a person from birth. As Islam (the word means submission) controls the indiv 24/7/365 from cradle to grave. These people don’t assimilate. It’s against their policy of hate and death to anyone who doesn’t believe in a violent schizophrenic’s delusions.

      The Muslim Quran instructs Muslims to kill, rape, subjugate unbelievers. It is okay for Muslim men to marry children. Islam is the antitheses of Christianity. Don’t ever let Muslims come to Poland!

      Polish politician, attorney, MEP, and member of the ruling Law and Justice Party Dominik Tarczynski is among the absolute best!

      I’ve seen all of his English-speaking videos on YouTube. He cares about his family and cares about his country – and says absolutely NO to muslim migration, much to the chagrin of the EU leaders…

      Poland is doing the right thing keeping out Muslim. I long for the day when Western politicians will have the courage to state that Islam is a totalitarian supremacist, conquest ideology and this is why it is unsafe to admit Muslims into one’s country. The interviewer is deliberately stupid. Poland has not had a problem with Muslims because it has been smart enough not to allow them entry.

    I sympathise with the long-suffering people of Calais, but their mayor is awfully wrong. UK has no obligation or duty to take the problem off the hands of Calais. It’s France’s problem. The French have to choose a government that will solve the problem. The only way to stop jihadism is for governments around the world to deprogram Muslims by convincing them the Koran is of human origin.

    • Terry Gain says

      Aug 15, 2020 at 5:54 pm

      Good luck with that plan. Deprogramming Muslims en masse is next to impossible given that western leaders concede that it is Islamophobic to criticize Islam. I don’t blame the French for exporting their Muslim problem to Britain just says I wouldn’t blame Britain for exporting theirs to Europe.

      My heritage is Polish/Irish. At least 1/2 of my ancestors have it right. And I grew up thinking that the Irish were the better half.

    France: Calais mayor says UK has ‘declared maritime war’ by stopping illegal Muslim boat migrants
    ………………….

    What absolute insanity–the question is why France is enabling this harm on an ally.

    Really, Mayor Natacha Bouchart should be acting to defend the imperiled citizens of her own city, not to spreading that peril to neighboring nations.

    Declaration of war.

    By allowing the migrants through and blackmailing the UK the same thing can be said in response but I guess that point is lost on this mayor.

    Whether these countries take more or not, in about 20 to 30 years whites in those countries will become a minority and islam will have won over two more countries. Not fun watching them commit suicide but the elites think their heads won’t ever be on fence posts, they’re wrong. Theirs might only be last.

      “Theirs might only be last.”
      So thinketh the feeder of Crocodiles in hopes HE will be the last one eaten! Meanwhile the EU demagogues in “control” of “The People” continue to INSIST that illiterate, uneducated brain surgeons and rocket scientists make up the bulk of military-age, healthy, angry, hateful, rapists, anti-Western murderers, arsonists, and killers of police, robbers of Law-Abiding CITIZENS, and openly flooding their adoptive countries with heroin, cocaine, and deadly other drugs mostly made and shipped from CHINA!

  9. Billy Chickens says

    Mortimer wants to deprogram Muslims, yet the Chinese are doing that – and in a most horrific way which should be condemned. Mortimer thinks the Koran is of human origin. Does Mortimer think the Bible is of human origin? Does Mortimer believe in God? If Mortimer believes in God, then he must likewise believe that Lucifer exists. Since Lucifer exists it’s clear that the Koran was “written” by the hand of Lucifer appearing as “Gabriel” in the Cave at Hira. A person not believing in God would therefore conclude that Jesus was just a person and the Bible was written without the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Likewise, that same person would believe that there is no evil and the Koran was written, not by the preternatural power of evil, but by a human person.

    • gravenimage says

      Aug 16, 2020 at 9:50 pm

      Billy, I myself disagree with Mortimer that trying to “deprogram” Muslims is an efficacious approach–but the idea that this ergo somehow means that Mortimer does not believe that Islam is evil is *much* mistaken. Have you ever read his posts?

      • Billy Chickens says

        Aug 17, 2020 at 10:56 am

        My point is not that Mortimer does not believe in evil, but that he thinks the evil of the Koran is of human origin.

    ”Rather than accept migrants who would work in the black market, Boris Johnson would do better than to teach us lessons, would be better to create better laws to accept people in his own country”
    Seems to me the same can be said of France. If her own country were better at accepting people then they should have no desire to continue on to a place that chose to exit a union which was doing nothing for British sovereignty. Perhaps she hasn’t heard of Brexit yet.

  11. Norman Gardner says

    Aug 16, 2020 at 5:57 pm

    The French have a major problem, the mayor of Calais should take her venom out on Macron instead of the British. The Muslims have burned hundreds of cars and rioted to get what they want and created the no go neighborhoods. Perhaps the govt. should cut their welfare or sponsor them back to Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Morrocco or elsewhere.
