It's a pity they didn't make it to their desired destination🤡

They will get there sooner or later. They might even fly them in after this tragedy and delay.

This is terrible.

The UK has paid France hundreds of millions of pounds over several years specifically to increase beach patrols, disrupt smuggling gangs, and prevent launches, obviously its a total waste of money, as its not working?☹️

The authorities should have throne these scumbags life rings attached to cement blocks.

I sincerely hope that all these migrants reach their new home in the UK safely and find the opportunities they seek.

If you live in the UK ?

They should have passed them over some more petrol for their engine so they could return to where they sailed from/home!

You are the only one here on a slippery slope Red old boy.These boat people arrive on British shores having thrown their passports and ID papers in the drink so the authorities don't know who they are or where they are from or what criminal history they have. There are ways to migrate to another country the legal way so they can be vetted., but don't worry when Nigel Farage get's the keys to number 10 he will adopt the Australian anti- boat people formula.... get the Navy to turn them around and send them back to where they came from. It's the only way to stop this madness.

And what happens when France refuses to take them back? Tell us in practical terms how this plan will work.

It won't. It can't. It isn't a real plan. It's a soundbite for people like you.

So the so this is what will happen when Nigel Farage gets in. The UK will turn back the boats and once they reach French waters they are France's problem. Afer all they let them all in so they are now bound to deal with them under the UN convention 1951.The French right to assylum or droit d'asille is enshrined in the code of entry and residence and all other EU countries are also abliged to adhere to it.. as far as I know the UK is no longer in the EU so that's it . It's up to France to deal with it. Also to be a geuine refugee you have to prove that your life was in danger for certain reasons and the first country that you arrive in is obliged to take you and not the 2nd 3rd, 4th etc. etc country.

Get the plight, but QE1 would have sunk them all. That’s what happens during an invasion. Pop of Britain gets to 100M, 200M. What happens to public services, pensions etc? How many is too many, numpty left donkeys? Sound like Trump, but there must be a limit right or your country has gone….
