Priti Stupid

[gulliver1]

Why is Priti Patel allowed to give £54 million of taxpayers money to France to stop migrants coming to the UK, when they are still arriving.

[emmie]

no idea, though any money given to France is bloody wasted in my opinion

[johnk]

Desperation! It failed once and it'll fail again, the French are only too happy to get rid of them and take the money

[bobbinwales]

Link? Has she given it yet ? Has it been used? It's hopefully going tp help a bit but there allways going to keep coming over for all sorts of reasons

[bobbinwales]

She's unlikely to find an answer to this but she's at least trying. Presume you have a better solution gulliver that you will share with us??

[emmie]

bobb, she has according to last nights news, and quite frankly its a bonkers idea...

[gulliver1]

Thought the UK had dropped out of the E/U ?.

[emmie]

it has.....long time ago now.

[gulliver1]

The Uk are paying France Ransom money. All £54m
to release people from their custody and escort them to the UK . This Govt are Bonkers.

[emmie]

not sure this government knows what to do next, i agree it's all bonkers.

[bobbinwales]

Maybe ppriti Patel is out if her depth but no one on ant goverment has had any idea. So do you have any Ideas to stop these Migrants coming gulliver or do you want them to keep coming

[youngmafbog]

The French/UK agreement is nothing to do with the EU.

Having said that I agree with emmie @ 7:50

[saintpeter48]

How on earth is it going to work, are they going to send people over there to check that extra French police will be patrolling the shores, as others have said, its bonkers.
We are a soft touch, thats why these people keep on coming over here, stop all benefits for illegals now, don't put them up in hotels, this just encourages them to keep coming, its a sad state of affairs but action needs to be taken, we are full up!

[emmie]

SP, agree we are indeed a soft touch.

[KJN]

Laughing at us all the way to the bank. The print more money machine in the UK must be on overtime.

[emmie]

wish some would come wafting my way then......

[ToraToraTora]

Paying danegeld to the firesides ain't going to fix this. We need to get the channel properly patrolled and turn these boats back, in fact tow them back and destroy them. End of.

[dannyk13]

It may sound stupid but if France keeps its side of the agreement it should,at least, reduce the numbers crossing the channel.

[burlyshirley]

Yes, we are a soft touch, the biggest ! I thought this government was going to get tough on important matters such as this and yet the illegals just keep on coming and coming.

[ToraToraTora]

danny, I think I spot the problem with your statement above:
"....if France keeps its side of the agreement ...." - PMSL!

[Mozz71]

She's awful. The French have her right where they want he, and they must be wetting themselves laughing at the free handout they're getting. Nothing will change and the garlic munchers will be back, cap in hand, in six months time for more easy money.
