‘French doing nothing whatsoever!' Tory fumes as he follows migrants crossing Channel
Express ^ | July 29, 2026 | Michael Knowles

Posted on 07/29/2026 8:32:58 AM PDT by MinorityRepublican

French police were accused of "doing nothing whatsoever" to prevent dangerous Channel migrant crossings following more farcical scenes.

Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp accused French gendarmes of a “shameful dereliction of duty” after they allowed a suspected smuggler who fired up the dinghy's engine to walk away free as the vessel departed.

He said officers could easily have prevented the departure because the water was only “knee deep”.

And he revealed how male asylum seekers were so desperate to reach the UK that they pushed women and children off in another day of carnage in the Channel.

It comes as smugglers launched a series of coordinated launches across northern France.

As many as 700 migrants are feared to be crossing the Channel on Wednesday.

The French government isn't "doing nothing". They're aiding and abetting the illegal alien invaders, just like Justin Castrudeau aided and abetted illegal alien invaders to the U.S. border.

These illegal alien invaders can't claim they're refugees if they're "fleeing" from France.

Why would France want to stop those third world leaches from leaving?

Unfortunately, this is happening here as well. There needs to be a ban on allowing Muslims in this country.

Bit of deflection going on here.

The illegals wouldn’t be crossing the Channel in the first place if the British government wasn’t so (stupidly) generous. Illegals get free housing, free food, free everything.

Leave food out, and you’re gonna attract mice.
Everybody knows that.

The Tory PM is a little slow but he is starting to get it.

The next step is for him to switch parties.

Unless of course it is all an act so he is pretending to be "outraged".

No, they're not doing nothing, they're helping the illegal migrants.

Why would they? They are England’s problem now. And there’s a super easy way to stem the flow. Cut off your welfare, idiots.

So why are they going to the UK? Better welfare? France has welfare no?

Because they speak English, even if poorly. They're not willing to be illiterate in three languages. Two is bad enough.

Guy needs to get a mirror. The British are doing nothing.

Of course, unlike the British, the French do have a functional navy, so they at least have some capability.

The British sent an Expeditionary Force of 4 divisions (80,000 men) to France for an expected 4 month engagement in August 1914 not for anything Germany did to them, but because of a "promise" to come to the aid of France.

4 years later, after 5.7 million men were deployed, 888,000 British men lay dead. All to save France.

And these scumbag frogs can't even stop a raft with 20 savages for Britain.

Since the UK is doing nothing why don’t those in charge just give them a ticket on the Chunnel and stop all this splashing about in dinghies? They put them up in various hotels and they can’t spring for a train ticket? Biden was flying the illegals in on various aircraft during his uh residency. I suppose its all a matter of optics but still.

There is a simple way to shop the small boats.

Just ram them with a destroyer ...

I forgot, the Royal Navy is just a figment of someone’s imagination.
