Thank you, and here is the link to the Oxford Charity sending supplies to the Calais Migrants.

Methyl, Good Idea!

Sadly the 4 million of us who voted UKIP and received only 1 M.P. wasn't sufficient. Eventually, maybe the penny will drop.

## It would make more sense to me if these supplies went to the Italy side of the France border. ##

Methyl,

It would make more sense to me if these supplies were given to the homeless, pensioners on the bread line, and food banks around OUR Country.

People can donate to which ever charities they want. If you don't want to donate to that cause, don't do.

Not sure what the point of this thread is? - Are you saying people should not be able to donate to charities that YOU personally do not approve?

Not at all Gromit, people can donate to whom they want, and if you read some of the post, YOU will see thats its not just ME.

And if you look on FB, there's a post similar, and about 95% out of 300 replies have the same feelings as ME!

I don't think people are reluctant to donate to charities, but I suspect that they find it annoying what happens to their donations, particularly when it is given out to prospective benefit scroungers as is in this case. Thousands of our own people rely on food banks and I feel they should take preference.

It's called compassion to give to someone less fortunate than yourself !

They are criminals, breaking into trucks, travelling to the UK free of charge etc etc.

If an ordinary British citizen committed these kind of crimes, their feet wouldn't touch the ground, they would soon be before the courts and most likely sent inside.

It's always young men in leather jackets who haven't got the guts to fight to sort their own countries out.

// It's called compassion to give to someone less fortunate than yourself !//

ah yes madiba - and remember charity begins at home and Mrs Madiba ( winnie of course - mother of the nation ) used to give those less fortunate herself flaming necklaces ( tyres soaked in petrol and sset alight )


and tanweed thingy gave us the London Bombings .....

No wonder they see us as a nation of berks in rose-tinted glasses, ripe for exploitation. Whereas, if AB is anything to go by, such people are in a minority.

> I don't believe there are many if any genuine asylum seekers in Calais, they could have done that in the first safe country they got to, not travelled right across Europe to N/France.

For that reason, I think by definition that there are no genuine asylum seekers in Calais trying to get here. Zero. They are all economic migrants. I suppose in a way it's a compliment that they'd risk their necks to live here rather than France or any other country in Europe, but I can think of many more deserving charitable causes ...
