Calais people to people solidarity: action from the UK

Deputy Mayor of Calais calls on the UK government to stop people going to Calais to help...all anarchists/activists and manipulating/training the residents of the camp apparently... :facepalm:

Starts at 19:24....an Interview with Rob Lawrie just before.

Surprised it hasn't been said before
What an embarrassing thing to have ones neighbours popping over to support people you. Should be helping yourself

It's almost amusing that they think the people working in Calais have time to fuck about training some revolutionary militia.

The only people I've ever seen in Calais with the time, resources or inclination to try and start a war are the fucking CRS.

My local Crime Commissioner said last week that returning jihadists may be hiding in the Jungle, trying to sneak back in to the UK. Which was just about the most stupid thing I have ever heard :cool:
 
It's pretty desperate stuff really though isn't it? Some of the lifeguard volunteers have been arrested in Lesbos during the last 48 hours too for 'people smuggling' because they have been rescuing people from the waters around the island. Given they and others have been doing this for months now I wonder why it has taken them so long to start making these arrests. :confused:

Some volunteers and residents during training for the Krypton Factor post apocalyptic police state exercise of how to move hundreds of makeshift shelters with limited time and space to move them to recently...

There may well be jihadists in the camp. But only briefly as a) they have the money and connections to get smuggled pretty quickly b) if the other refugees rumbled them they'd be beaten to death.

But the real way to ensure there aren't, is safe, legal routes for migration and to treat people with dignity and respect: then there aren't smuggling gangs and an illegal trafficking infrastructure for them to manipulate.
 
But as a jihadist I'd use the current refugee routes and people smuggling routes to hide in. Of course I would. Would be mad not to. There is a whole infrastructure around getting people in and out if countries- and to accommodation, and false papers- undetected at the moment. And government policy is just exacerbating that

I have 15,000 copies of Threads, the Calais cartoon to give away to raise funds for refugees.
How it works is you pay postage, £7 for 100 comics or £2.50 for 20. Pay me by Paypal to threads.cartoon@gmail.com. log in to Paypal. Go to the Money tab. Click 'send money to family or friends' so Paypal don't get any of their grubby hands on it'. On the next page where it says 'send message' WRITE YOUR ADDRESS WHERE YOU WANT ME TO SEND THEM.
Or collect them from me in Street, Somerset completely free.
You can sell them at a suggested donation of £2 per comic. When you've collected the money, you can donate it to any organisation or individual who is helping refugees, anywhere in the world.
Then please, if you remember, email me at threads.cartoon@gmail.com and tell me how much you raised and where it went.
That is all. Please help me reclaim my lounge from the boxes.

Case against him will be dropped too, can't be in the public interest to continue.

Shows what the fuck I know

Case against Channel Tunnel walker to go ahead - BBC News

Prosecutors are to press ahead with their case against a Sudanese man granted asylum in Britain after walking through the Channel Tunnel from France.

Abdul Rahman Haroun, 40, was granted asylum on Christmas Eve after being found inside the tunnel on 4 August.

He denies a charge of causing an obstruction to an engine or carriage.

Canterbury Crown Court bailed Mr Haroun until 3 March, when it will consider legal argument. A provisional trial date has been set for 20 June.

:facepalm:
 
Which part of the camp are the shelters being moved to?
Two places- by the church and by the dome. Tried to keep communities together and limit number of new neighbours for unaccompanied minors so their unaccompanied minor-ness wasn't advertised.

The lovely Phil K who speaks fluent French and is very very stubborn has finally managed to get a copy of the clearance notice. It is dated 2 days *after* we started asking for it so was clearly hastily written when they realised they needed one.
