2nd ship sent to help the migrant crisis

[stevewool]

Well we have sent in another ship to help with the migrant crisis they are saying, but is this the second very large life boat we have sent to help the traffickers,
Surely now these people will send more knowing that after just a short few miles out at sea there cargo will have more of a chance of being taken on a very large ship rather then trying to make it to land,
I dont mean to sound cruel about this but this will no stop the people traveling in boats at all,
Now if these so called war ships could go near to the shores or so called international waters then they may make a difference ,

They are given phones pre-programmed with italian coastguard number,get out into international waters and make the call,voila instant rescue,and you cant do anything in libya because its not exactly stable at the moment,whats the solution

[stevewool]

I have no idea at all what the answer is

[Tawi2]

Dont accept them,shepherd them back in to libyan waters when one of their boats is spotted,its innefectual and sends out the wrong message to rescue or take aboard everyone from one of these boats,most are subsaharan economic migrants,in fact the vast majority are,set a precedent and refuse to accept any however strong the worldwide pressure to do so.

[Steve.r]

All these immigrants should be picked up and taken directly back, why are they ever take to Sicily or Italy, then it becomes our problem as they all seek asylum and drain our (european) resources. It doesn't make sense to me.

you need to destroy the boats on the beaches before they load up, kill the traffickers ..sod which country they are starting out from

When i was based in Hong Kong we had a vietnamese boat people problem,they were rounded up and stuck in detention centres like high island and green island,no political correctness nack then

Also Hong Kong was British at that time

Can you remember a good few years ago when this sort of thing happened with Australia , they did not accept the boats then , they was left just bobbing on the sea until they had to turn round,
Europe is just a welcome door to who ever wants to come in it seems ,

But if you genuinely have a legitimate reason, wife and children, they make it so difficult and expensive. Better off starting off the illegal way
