Has anybody else seen the amount of visitors arriving by dingy in Dover? as a regular watcher of the alternative news another 12 arrived this morning and all 12 tested positive for covid.When is this government going to put a stop to this.They are escorted into british waters by the french navy,and only 2 weeks ago we gave the french 200,000,000 to help stop this.This virus will NEVER go away if we keep letting people in with the virus.

agreed.

and the irony that the post brexit post covid border patrols are laughable. no way they could keep their Farage induced promises or police them.. bad for business. i still want Witty to explain why he didn't insist on quarantine and checks for people coming in by air(like majority of other countries) let alone by dinghy.. always recall him saying something flippant like it wouldn't be worth it.. at what stage would it have been?

racism at its finest here on this thread.

I do believe we should help them imagine how bad it must be in your hone country to get on a dinghy with your children when you have COVID. We are here BY LUCK! that’s all it could so easily be you or me in a dinghy. Where is your compassion when you’re switch over Netflix in your warm house while contemplating what takeaway to have tonight ... I despair

I'm not outraged.. There will still be people desperate to escape from countries that the British or American leaders have utterly ruined..and the lesson there is stop creating wars and sending soldiers to die in foreign countries just because they have oil or mineral reserves :/

The migrants escaping to find a better life doesn't outage me its fair the UK gets its own shit brought back to its own front door to clean up properly

What I am outraged at is the fact that no one seems to be able to manage that process properly for a lot of years..

There is a possibility some who might get through ( not get caught) could cause issues. However, arguably those who do get caught get vaccinated straight away so they are arguably less if a risk to the UK than at least 50 percent of its current population

So not outraged at all.. Only towards the people on here wjp keep meeting and the idiots across the country who keep breaking rules.. That's really a bit more than outrageous isn't it!

Immigration policy is not Chris Whitty's department. His job is to provide the Government with the medical advice required for the GOVERNMENT to make decisions (in concert with the Chief Scientific Officer, Patrick Vallance). They provide the data and the best scientific/medical interpretation. Boris' lot make the policy decisions. That's how our parliamentary democracy operates.

It's the Home Secretary, Health Secretary and colleagues who you should be venting your ire at. Do you think Priti Patel is qualified to make those decisions? I'm not so sure.

I'm sure Whitty's words in March 2020 were tempered by the message the Government wanted to give. He'd have gone the same way as Prof. Nutt if he strayed too far away. That's a shame because he's supposed to be impartial. I'm certain he gives advice impartially to the Govt but what is said in public is to some extent pre agreed (ditto for all the advisers).

Calling it a, ' card' makes it look like it's a bit of fun doesn't it? .. It isn't fun.. fact is the OP from Burnley ( where they have regrettably far too many attendees from there at EDL meetings and the other Contributor from Hastings adopting a similar defence toward ' them' in Dinghies .. Not on!

Those are Racist comments whether veiled or not.. And no place for that or the people who do that sort of thing anywhere in this world. It always needs calling out and dealing with whenever it happens..

To be fair, the number of people who arrive in the uk via "non-standard methods" such as fishing boats and dinghies is relatively tiny. Comparing the couple of thousand a year that arrive this way to the 67 million that live in the country shows that they are really a drop in the ocean.

Ultimately the only way that things get better is by creating immunity in all areas of the world. There SHOULD be a vaccination project targeted at the Refugee camps around the world (including Calais) to help. It also makes sense that the countries who have the resources should be assisting in vaccinating the people in poorer areas... it helps to protect us too.

Sorry but France is not there home country.

Lots however are now leaving as they ate realise the grass is not greener on the other side of the chanel. But for me the coast of one ferry to get them and test them must be better then.

1. Then risking there life.

2. Not testing them.

3. Then paying money criminals.

Don't know how we house them as the homeless should come first but no one should be pushed to a point where they risk their life.

i think we should help people who have arrived here and we should participate in official channels for resettlement of asylum seekers, if they are in our waters in danger i think its also right to step in for their safety if we can, i also think its madness to segregate asylum seekers once here by not allowing them to properly participate in society by getting jobs etc - its just damaging all round - people moan about the cost but thats partly on us and the rules we have imposed

but to start sending out ferries to collect people voluntarily i think sets a bad precedent and would realistically just encourage the criminal activity since people would believe they only have to make it so far then the UK would do the rest for them

completely agree with the points about vaccinations programmes in refugee camps though

Wow I have even spit your opinion

You do know that migrants now get no help from the UK

No housing, no access to NHS etc.

We had one camping at the land be hind us he would leave bottles out to be filled with water I ended up running a hose pipe out to him.

But in January he said he was going back to France as it cost to much to live hear.

By international law asylum seekers HAVE to claim asylum in the first safe country they come to, that is not the UK thus they then become illegal immigrants( to be fair to france they are illegal immigrants there too) a kinder word us to call them economic migrants.

It's more than they get in france and most will try and work illegally anyway, however that is not the point, they are safe in France and if they wish to come here they should apply through the proper channels.

That is just not correct. Here is some text copied from Amnesty International's website.

"There is no legal requirement for a refugee to claim asylum in any particular country. Neither the 1951 Refugee Convention nor EU law requires a refugee to claim asylum in one country rather than another. There is no rule requiring refugees to claim in the first safe country in which they arrive"

He was working so don't think illegal but on minnamal wage and no money could not get the deposit for a flat or any home.

England is becoming less attractive to them and that is the key. They use to get housing and benefit and NHS but it's now 2 years I think before they get anything.

i might be wrong - garbage memory and google wont have the answers anymore because we are no longer part of the EU but thats sounds like the rules that were applicable to people who had settled from within the EU using the legal right to live or work where you want - and rightly so those people should still be able to support themselves before upping and settling somewhere else voluntarily - this is why a time threshold was put in place so that people would only move while they could support themselves rather than for another countries benefits , but then once settled, if they fell on hard times they would be eligible just like any other citizen

just as fyi , with the housing thing this also happens with uk residents - homeless support is managed by local councils and if up turn up in a council district to which you have no ties and register as homeless they will send you back to where you came from most of the time , there are exceptions though for things like fleeing from violence

this thread conversation was based around people seeking asylum and the rules are different, they will be fed and housed while their application is processed and will continue to be supported if their applications is successful (not saying the levels are sufficient) . the terms of asylum dont grant you to work for a period of time either

"Has anybody else seen the amount of visitors arriving by dingy in Dover? as a regular watcher of the alternative news another 12 arrived this morning and all 12 tested positive for covid.When is this government going to put a stop to this.They are escorted into british waters by the french navy,and only 2 weeks ago we gave the french 200,000,000 to help stop this.This virus will NEVER go away if we keep letting people in with the virus."

What's the alternative news?

"They arent asylum seekers they are economic migrants

can you explain what you mean by this? i thought with avoiding the news and media i had missed a terminology change and said something offensive? but an immigration advice website i just checked still refers to asylum seekers

asylum has to / should be applied for in the first county you enter so I do agree lots are economic migrants but once hear most are finding it really hard now no home money or job. You now have to prove you can work legally in the UK.

So it is now harder for them to work apart.from for cash ( another post )

That is just not correct. Here is some text copied from Amnesty International's website.

"There is no legal requirement for a refugee to claim asylum in any particular country. Neither the 1951 Refugee Convention nor EU law requires a refugee to claim asylum in one country rather than another. There is no rule requiring refugees to claim in the first safe country in which they arrive"

Cal

Ok thank you for that so do asylums get more help."

If someone is Granted Asylum, then they are permitted to stay in the country & gain the rights of other residents including the right to work, access to the NHS & Welfare. Around 80% of applications are denied & the applicants must leave the country.

"To be fair, the number of people who arrive in the uk via "non-standard methods" such as fishing boats and dinghies is relatively tiny. Comparing the couple of thousand a year that arrive this way to the 67 million that live in the country shows that they are really a drop in the ocean.

Ultimately the only way that things get better is by creating immunity in all areas of the world. There SHOULD be a vaccination project targeted at the Refugee camps around the world (including Calais) to help. It also makes sense that the countries who have the resources should be assisting in vaccinating the people in poorer areas... it helps to protect us too.

Cal"

well said, you have my vote.

The quote is from the gospels, something like, don't point out the speck in your brother's eye before you deal with the log in your own. (On pointing out another's sins)

So... Not interested in the specks in dinghies, while we have logs (forests?) in our airports

That is not the whole story, the dublin II agreement affirms the principle of the genrva convention that has become standard accepted practice that asylum seekers claim asylum in the first safe country, if they dont then they can be returned to that safe country

The part of the country with rates over 1000 per 100,000 people at the time. Exactly where you'd expect. A transit point for thousands of truckers and people legitimately moving between continental Europe and here.

We're saying the only way to remove instances of importing new Covid from outside was to close the borders entirely. It's a bit late for that now really. The tiny handful of dinghy sailors rocking up on the south coast etc are a miniscule drop in a tidal wave of incoming people from here, there and everywhere. It's irrelevant who they are or where they're from when it comes to controlling the virus.

Yes, I'm sure once they land ashore, the Border Force people just say "run, run free dinghy people" and the dinghy people migrate across the land, spreading new variants in their wake. Sounds really plausible

"Don’t worry OP Priti Patel has just purchased a new bit of kit to foul the propellers of these craft.

Presumably to leave them humanely stranded at sea in one of the worlds busiest shipping lanes.

That should make you feel a little safer

That'll teach 'em *Victor Meldrew style fist shaking*

It's what every civilised country should aspire to, watching desperate people run over by P&O Ferries....

Does that nice ms patel still want to stick them on an island in the middle of the Atlantic?

It's quite weird because when she is mentioned in the politics forum she is defended by all and sundry.

People eh.

Learning from Australia again are we?

It was 1 of her bright ideas

She also raised the possibility of using royal navy ships to catch them.

Like I said thiugh she is quite popular on the politics forum."

"where did i say that?

but if someone is outraged at 12 folk in a dinghy bringing covid to the uk but not about the people pouring into airports from non red countries, well dress it up how you like but the problem isnt really the covid is it... its the fact they are on a dinghy seeking asylum

Are you saying you are ok with some people bringing covid in, but not others?

nope , i was saying the original post really had nothing to do with covid

I thought he said all of them had covid So how is that nothing to do with covid "

have a look at his follow up posts later on ... it was a dig at asylum seekers thinly veiled as outrage at 12 new cases of covid - i just happened to spot it in post 1

"Has anybody else seen the amount of visitors arriving by dingy in Dover? as a regular watcher of the alternative news another 12 arrived this morning and all 12 tested positive for covid.When is this government going to put a stop to this.They are escorted into british waters by the french navy,and only 2 weeks ago we gave the french 200,000,000 to help stop this.This virus will NEVER go away if we keep letting people in with the virus."

Your quote about all 12 of them having Covid-19 came from that we'll known philanthropist, Nigel Farage, didn't it?

Look at the Home Office Twitter feed and you will see that they corrected Mr Farage to say that, actually, none of them tested positive.

You should be more selective about which racists you choose to believe.

"Where did the kent variant come from I wonder

Kent. Hope this helps.

Which is in dover

I'm sorry..what is the point you are trying to make?

Are loads of people who live in Dover prone to this new variant,?

Does boris know?

I agree with the op

So it's the illegal immigrants bringing it over?

Maybe certainly doesn’t help the situation

Dont they get banged up in secure units when they get here?

So we are told but who knows you believe this government

So you think the gmnt just let them run free once they get her?

Wouldn’t surprise me

Yes, I'm sure once they land ashore, the Border Force people just say "run, run free dinghy people" and the dinghy people migrate across the land, spreading new variants in their wake. Sounds really plausible "

couple, us we him her.

I haven't read the whole thread and frankly can't be arsed to trawl through it.

But on thing I noticed in the opening post and may have been missed.

People coming in via ferry, planes and the like are easier to monitor and police.

Whereas people arriving by a small boat illegally there's no way to monitor them not only from a covid standpoint but many other things also.

That's all I'm saying on this subject I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with anyone.

Just wanted to point this out.

I'm going to back out slowly and close the door gently.

The original claim about this came from...

Nigel Farage.

Refuted by the Home Office 9 hours later.

As David Schneider put it:

Replying to

and

@pritipatel

@nigel_farage This is incorrect. None of these 12 people tested positive for Covid-19. All adults who arrived today have been tested for Covid-19

Victoria, London

Dealt with unaccompanied children into Kent for years. Numbers fluctuate but ultimately, they are innocents, and are transported with and without their permission. On there journey they will have received terrible conditions and incidents.

There is a problem, Europe will love to see us struggle, but people will always find this country attractive.

You get those who are in danger, and those that are migrating for economic reasons. Don't have a problem with either, as they tend to be hard workers and have contributed to this country so much.

At 5yo I travelled by coach from South Africa, up to Cyprus (when the Turks invaded), then by train to the UK. I was safe, but the journey, I still remember.

1 they're not fleeing a war zone there in France. 2 the government admit only 1 in 5 are picked up. So the problem not rasict but safety for our health and security.

As I said early on send a ship. Go and get them test them and let them do what they want. It's harder to work now with out proof of residency and you don't get free health care for a bit but stop the gangs macking money by just getting them safe and must be cheaper then keep picking them up 12 at a time.

"have a google how many people are coming into the country via port or airports daily and then maybe rethink your level of concern over 12 in a dinghy - better yet maybe admit and deal to your racist bias

Wow only two posts in and someone played the racist card ,well done

well it only took a grand total of 1 post for the OP to show his bias "
