A total of eight “small boats” (so-called “small boats”) are reported to have landed on Wednesday, carrying around 450 migrants to the UK. No other day this year has been busier, and trends from previous years suggest that the number of boats and total daily migrants will increase significantly as spring feels and good weather arrives.
By the end of the summer of 2023, 872 migrants per day will arrive on 15 boats, and even in a year where boat arrival levels are lower than in previous years, there will be no more than 1,000 weeks of migrants arriving. It wasn’t an unknown quantity.
Brexit leader and boat migrant campaigner Nigel Farage said Wednesday was a “great day on the English Channel”, attracting large numbers of boat crossings, adding: “These people were brought to Dover for processing. These are the people who were brought here and will ultimately live.” At a four-star hotel…unless the government takes a firm stance, nothing will change. ”
Reflecting on Wednesday’s violence, Mr Farage said: “One passenger stabbing another shows that not everyone who comes is a poor innocent refugee.” Far from it. This is a disaster for our country. ”
The alleged stabbing is just the latest act of extreme violence against migrants under the “protection” of smuggling gangs across Europe. All too often, individuals who hand over thousands of dollars to be smuggled to European countries are enslaved, raped, and assaulted. killed. Just this week, Spanish police arrested three people in connection with the deaths of five migrants who were thrown from a smuggler’s boat between Africa and Europe.
The conditions for this brutal human trafficking trade to thrive are permitted by European countries that have decided to leave their borders barely defended, encouraging criminal organizations to thrive.
Responsible border management saves lives, as stated by former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, who stopped ships to Australia completely and ended deaths as a result. As reported, he told an audience in Prague that “effective border security is not for picky people, but it is absolutely necessary to save lives and protect the nation. “The action is to stop the boats, stop the deaths. And for over two years now, not a single person has entered Australia illegally by boat, and drownings have stopped.”
