First Driver Death in Calais After Migrants Drag Tree Trunks onto Motorway

A van driver has died in an accident at Calais after migrants dragged tree trunks onto the A16 motorway in a bid to slow traffic and break into vehicles bound for Britain.

At just before 4am on Tuesday, two trucks were forced to suddenly brake so as to avoid the tree trunks placed by migrants to block the road.

A third van, coming up from behind, was unable to stop in time and crashed into the other vehicles. According to Franceinfo the Renault Master — which was registered in Poland — caught fire, and its driver died in the accident.

Local media reports the death of the driver is the first at Calais caused by the actions of migrants determined to break into Britain. The identity of the deceased is not yet known at this stage, “given the state of the body”, said a spokesman for the Pas-de-Calais prefecture.

So just out of curiosity, when France and Germany are completely taken over by radical Islam and Sharia Law is implemented.

Who will have control of the NUKES in these countries?

Hopefully, as was the case in South Africa, their nuclear weapons will be dismantled and properly disposed of prior to handing over power.

I assume your question is rhetorical but just in case it isn't, the group in charge will control their nukes.

Why else do muzzles take over democratically run countries?

it’s a war - one side is fighting and the other is losing.

Wow. Mr. Mercat and I went over that road last September. We saw the migrant camp and the barbed wire. On the British side it’s heavily guarded out halfway to London. On the French side not so much. Just a mile or two of walls and barbed wire and then c’est la vie.

Clean up these “camps”. Arrest and deport them all and bulldoze the place.

Dozens of major public figures in France have called on President Emmanuel Macron to “end violence against migrants” at Calais, claiming that police “mistreatment” of the group of illegal, mainly Eritrean and Sudanese, illegals is “intolerable”.

Published Friday, the letter signed by 65 people including filmmakers, actors, NGO workers, and influential politicians including left wing firebrand Jean-Luc Mélenchon, demands better treatment for migrants in Calais.

So the left's answer to this violence is to treat them better as a reward for their lawlessness? No calls to send them back home or catch and prosecute those who turn to violence? Those in charge are signing their own death warrant when they let the mobs take control.

Hopefully.

Macron can surely be trusted in this serious matter. /s
Good Lord, please have mercy upon our sin sick world.

How long can evil run rampant without justice?
I am growing weary of waves of bad news, seemingly daily.

As far as the nukes go, wouldn’t the radical jihadists want to launch these as soon as they get control?

They are after all suicide bombers at heart.

NATO countries have American Nukes that are “shared”.

So the Brits were right. The WOGs really do begin at Calais.

In this country every single immigrant in that group would be arrested and tried for murder as they should be there.

Then put them on hard work farms growing food for the other prisons until their sentence is up then drop them in their home country with $5 letting them know they would be looking at life on that prison farm if they came back.

"Who will have control of the NUKES in these countries? "

I do believe that the French do have nuclear armed missile subs.
If the muzzies get control of France the Americans and Brit
subs will have to hunt the French subs down and sink them.
Frankly I think the French will turn them over to the US
if it looks like the muzzies are gaining power.

That was interesting, and very insightful.
Looks like strange days may be upon us again in the near future.

Let’s hope that the adults can take control and we can restore a resemblance of peace and Christian brotherhood back into these regions.


From the link above....

The Allied nations, with the Free French led by Charles de Gaulle among them, wanted to gain access to this French fleet, but with the Vichy government operating under German protection, these ships were just as easily turn their guns and fire on the Allies in the Mediterranean Sea. At Oran and Mers-el-Kébir, French Algeria, the French had four battleships, thirteen destroyers, one seaplane carrier, and four submarines; at Dakar, French West Africa, two battleships; at Alexandria, Egypt, one battleship and four cruisers. Should the Germans acquire these ships, either by force or with French cooperation, it would result in a German Navy that could rival the British Royal Navy.

ww2dbaseFaced with the potential dangers of this substantial French fleet, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill made his decision to strike first, risking harm to British-French relations.
