Let’s hope it continues, I hope it just wasn’t for show.

I THINK IT WAS FOR SHOW.
it's in their interest to help them to leave France and it will continue as soon as the cameras are gone.I don't trust the French Government.Weve paid them £multi millions to police the beaches and they haven't done it.

Although I would wish it to continue,I think you are right Norman, it appeared to be a one off. The boat was seriously overloaded and was beginning to sink. That is when they decided to intervene.

I suspect it was for the benefit of the camera, it’s about time they did this to all of those boats !

If the Invaders suddenly stopped coming over from today, the massive damage is already done.
This useless treacherous Government are more interested in caring for Fighting age Invaders than that they are for us.
The foreign Invaders are laughing at how soft the British are so they need rounding up & deported. They wer NOT escaping war when they were in France.
If they were escaping war, why is it mostly young men who ran away from it???, leaving their wives and children .
Did our men run away in WW1 & WW2????? NO they joined up and fought for our country.

A one off I suspect.
Did you see that it is described as a "trial". As if it had never occurred to ignorant people like ourselves that puncturing the dinghies inshore would stop them transiting!
We really are in the hands of political morons on both sides of the channel!

I think that was all a big show so that Macron, who happens to be having a State Visit to the UK next week, can say that the French are doing their bit to stop the boats - I think the band played on don’t you???

The French have no interest in stopping these immigrants, every that leaves is one less for them !

Gotta agree with you, Mac...so a "Trial"

Got to love the thinking behind this:

Picture the meeting:

"How do we stop these boats from leaving France?"

Reply: "We could maybe sink them?"

"What if we jabbed something sharp into them, would they sink?"

"Well, I don't know if jabbing something sharp into something that's full of air would make it deflate and sink"

"Perhaps we should carry out a TRIAL, and get the Brits to pay for it!!"

Duh!!!!!!!!!

Malcolm, or it could be the French President Macron and his wife will arrive for a State Visit to the UK this month. Of course once he has been feted as a special guest, he will go back to France and demand more money and still not stop the boats.
