CALAIS, France (AP) - French police cleared out, then bulldozed, a squalid forest camp near the northern city of Calais on Tuesday, detaining hundreds of illegal immigrants who had hoped to slip across the English Channel into Britain. French Immigration Minister Eric Besson called the site - known as "the Jungle" - a "base camp for human traffickers" who promise the migrants passage for enormous fees or dump them there after bringing them across Europe.

Britain is viewed as an easier place than France to make a life, even clandestinely, since it has generous social benefits for the unemployed and a robust job market.

Britain has, I guess, about 15 years left as a civilization. A once proud nation conquered, with no shots fired, dies with a whimper.
