Shopkeepers, businessmen, farmers and police unionists in Calais have pledged to block 'indefinitely' the motorway leading to the port with a 'human chain', saying they will not break it until the migrant Jungle camp that has now swollen to up to 10,000 people is totally dismantled.
The unprecedented action, due to start on Monday, came as the local head of France’s national haulage federation warned: "Migrant violence hasn’t gone up a notch, it’s gone up 10 floors."
Lorry driver representatives issued a joint call with an umbrella group of shops and businesses in Calais, the CGT union, farmers and the SCP Police union, saying that they had run out of less militant ways of calling a "halt to insecurity in Calais".

Then where will the migrants go? At least keep them concentrated.
SO sad what’s become of this area, and most of France...due to this out of control *migrant* situation.
Bless these folks...who are FINALLY and literally standing up to this complete insanity.
French national election in six months. Current guy won’t pull more than 15-percent of the vote max. Public is fed up.

The Mayor of Calais and the French President François Hollande want England to take them.
Are the Brits that foolish?
When government fails in its primary responsibility, to protect its citizens, then that government is illegitimate.
The citizens are taking things into their own hands.
Good for them.
Looks like a favela.
This is a serious attempt by the “One Worlders” to break down nations and national borders to secure their nirvana of a one world government ruled, of course, by them.
If one of those poor truckers hit and killed one of those idiots the SJWs would be enraged.

The very definition of “Target Rich Environment”.
Resident of Calais speaks. This is the death of civilization.
Britain is reportedly threatening to review security co-operation with France should it try to renounce a 2003 deal under which British border checks take place in Calais. Amber Rudd, the Home Secretary, is in Paris on Tuesday for talks with Bernard Cazeneuve, her French counterpart, to discuss the situation.
Under the 2003 Le Touquet accord, migrants caught trying to reach Britain illegally from Calais can appeal only for residency rights in France or leave the country.
There's a video of the Mayor saying she wants the border checks to Britain to go back to Dover.

Well, here we go. The French are winding the clock, and pretty soon it will be open season on the sand monkeys.
The English Channel is right next door. Let them try and swim for Britain.
All of our jokes about the French aside, things become very “active” when the French public reaches their breaking point.
Are there sharks in the English Channel?
