Companies with  expertise in Legionella ? Is this same like a Wagner enterprise opportunity ?

Unless they are French nationals they are not the responsibility of the French government once they leave France.

I believe that is the point. Along with the other safe countries the immigrants travel through to get to UK.

 

Those countries don't seem to care about the immigrants plight.

I'm pretty certain that a concern for the welfare of the (illegal) immigrants wasn't the point being made by the poster to whom I directed my reply (Quote: "IMHO they should be towed back to France and their boats sunk.").

That's a very sweeping statement which I would suggest requires some supporting evidence.

I have a friend in the UK who is a barrister, specialising in human rights law and cases.

 

Our friendship nearly foundered on the reefs and shoals of Brexit. She wrote a restaurant review on a local Facebook page, managing to blame Brexit for something or other, and I mentioned that they did an excellent gammon steak. After a few acerbic comments she had the grace to admit to seeing the funny side!

 

Anyway, in recent years she has bought a very nice country cottage, and amassed a collection of half a dozen classic cars (the latest is a Railton - they don't come cheap!). The bulk of her work is publicly funded appearing on behalf of "asylum seekers" and other undocumented illegal immigrants.

Nice unverifiable story.

I think some here think their Labour Party will crack it in no time, bit like Trump ending the Ukraine war in a day.............????

Let’s stick with what we know.

 

Labour are not in Government, nor are they the topic of discussion.

 

This ‘immigrant barge’ Hokey Cokey, is a failure of the current Government’s own making, at tax payers expense and Government chum’s profit.

 

You shouting ‘Labour’ does not alter any of that.

The 'source countries' are predominantly African and Middle Eastern.

 

I can't offer any solutions. I would have thought that was implicit in the sentence of mine which you quoted?  "Implementing measures to achieve the desired result is a lot less obvious".

We could try starting fewer wars.

And when legionnaire bacteria was discovered one might expect it to be dealt with before transferring people into the barge:

What is it about rising levels of inequality, record levels of child poverty, record numbers of working people having to use food banks, that makes you so happy?

No, the government knew about it for 4 days before they took action.

Happy, you are talking to the wrong bloke, ol' chap, besides, I know what real poverty is about from my early days, we didn't even have a phone in the house, very few homes did,  now everybody has one in their hand...............

So let's keep things in perspective, chummy........????

You are the one cheering on the villains in the piece. If you want the nasty party to get back into government, by default you are ok with the degradation of standards that their policies have caused across the UK.

Ignore the medium if you must - but the facts remain that the government took 4 days to take action.

Yes. For those with the ability to put their political bias to one side for a miniscule moment, the evidence is there.

No need to forgive you for your own failings.

 

It's sad what effect the internet has had on some people.

A Home Office spokesperson said environmental samples from the water system on the Bibby Stockholm had shown levels of legionella bacteria that required further investigation.

Who discovered it. Who went aboard and took the samples? Send them all to hospital they'll get more than Legionnaires disease.  

Or fill the thing will Algerians, they will be used to legionnaries.
