French Waters...... Wheres the Royal Navt then.... I thought Britain ruled the waves.?

//we may have not done as well as we would have liked in the negotiations but it was a negotiation not a war. Or we'd minced them in an afternoon.//

It’s called the “cod wars” not the cod negotiations tho

[douglas9401]

Maybe the Cod Troubles would cover it, like they do with the minor upset over the Irish sea.

[steg]

Different plaice tho

Wonder if TTT thinks the French are being Anti British.

[ToraToraTora]

gully: "Wonder if TTT thinks the French are being Anti British. " - of course they are, it's their job! I expect it from them and the rest of the EUSSR but I am often surprised at how many British, like steg, are anti themselves.

The French are standing on the shores of Calais, waving their private parts at our aunties and farting in our general direction.

[gulliver1]

16.17, I hope they fart before they have devoured the Champagne the British taxpayers gave them .

[Mozz71]

Wow. They're all out in force today I see.

[gulliver1]

16.32 , another one has appeared, I see.

[naomi24]

So much for a serious news section. No surprise this place is haemorrhaging intelligent posters.

[gulliver1]

Stop making a fool of yourself.

[Mozz71]

Are you capable of debate Gully, or do you only do soundbites or insults?

[gulliver1]

17.14 Boring. Takeit or leave it. It is not compulsary to join this thread I would not have been offended if you hadn't.

600 during last weekend & they are arriving by the hour.

'Calais MP Pierre-Henri Dumont has said the tens of millions of pounds the British government is sending to France to stop the Channel migrant crisis is “going to waste” because the French do not and, he claims, cannot stop the boats.

“The fact is that we cannot stop everyone from crossing because there are just too many people and the coastline is too big. So [the British people] are giving more money from their own taxes that’s going to waste,” Dumont said, with remarkable candour — although whether it is really impossible to expect that 21st-century France should be capable stopping thousands of illegal migrants from roaming its coastline and launching boats to Britain is an open question,

“It’s going to harm the relationship between the two countries,” the Calais MP continued, speaking to The Telegraph.'
