Some people were so moved by the plight of migrants in Calais, they traveled to France to donate clothes and food.And for ‘some people’, don’t read hard-working taxpayers, but – of course!- the usual suspects, just like the last time:
Juliet Kilpin, 45, from Westcliff, a member of Avenue Baptist Church and co-ordinator at mission agency Urban Expression, visited the camp with two others.
She went with Matt Dominey, 17, a pupil at Southend High School for Boys, and 20-year-old university student Grace Claydon, from Hawkwell.
They decided to act after becoming increasingly frustrated at the “dehumanisation of migrants trying to find a way into the UK”.This seems to be becoming a trend – opinionated do-gooders demanding recognition in local newspapers.
Mrs Kilpin said: “David Cameron made me do it when he described the migrants as a swarm.
“The national media have demonised these people and have stoked fear among the British public, so I wanted to go over myself and see what it is like.
“I put the word out that I was going and 48 hours later we had a car-full of stuff in donations and £1,000 to take over.
“One of our friends had made contact with the grassroots charities and volunteers, so we gave them the clothes and helped form a system to hand out food.
“We took over about 350 packs of biscuits and when they ran out there were still people queuing. There must have been about 500 there needing food.
“It was very eye-opening – we saw the world in one square mile. Everyone had heartbreaking stories as to why they were there.”Yes, I’m sure they did. They always do, because they know there are people – like you! – naïve enough to lap that stuff up.
And never ask awkward questions, like ‘Where are all the women and children?’ or ‘Why have you ‘poor starvlings’ all got smartphones and new trainers?’…
Matt, who is studying politics, history, sociology and English literature, is a family friend of Mrs Kilpin and shared her views on the situation. He and Grace, an international development student, wanted to see the crisis at first hand.
He said: “I was aware of the situation, but what struck me the most was the scale of it.
“If there is a war-torn country in the world, then they were represented in Calais. “They want to make a life for themselves, they were excited by English culture and had a respect for it.”Yup, they have so much respect for English culture they break our laws to get here. Back to the classroom, sonny…
When a man told me, “our skin may be different colours, but we are all one blood”, I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed by the demonising rhetoric being used by some back home against the hundreds of people I met.You ought to feel embarrassed at your naivety. I hope this story is around in about 20 years time so you can cringe at just how much of an idiot you were.
With such useful idiots, coupled with all the MSM distortions, we're being "softened up" to accept more migrants.
ReplyDeleteCameron should have his words about "no more" thrown back at him at every opportunity, but don't expect the media to do it in this (now almost perfectly) fascist state.
I just see a complete failure of leadership by Cameron, May and the rest of them. Rest assured that when it all goes wrong some poor sod in the Border Agency/Police/Armed forces/ other public body will be lined up to take the blame for a failure of political leadership. I thought Blair et al had slopey shoulders but this lot have taken avoidance of responsibility to a new level.
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised at the useful idiots off to Calais to play Lady Bountiful. I remember their parents prancing about with their 'Socialist Republic of South Yorkshire', 'Solidarity with Nicaragua' and 'If they can topple the Shah' badges. They do have a habit of getting into bed with some right charmers. I wonder how many of these people will encounter 'vibrant diversity' at first hand? I see another bunch are off to Calais to dispense aid but they have asked for no more donations of children's clothes as they are overstocked and have no need for them. I suppose the predominantly young men of fighting age at the camps have grown out of them.
As an aside there is a thread on the Army Rumour Service site about this very topic. One of the posters who works on the continent noted that that the flood of aspiring doctors wanted to get to the UK because a) They perceived there were not as many police around in the UK compared to France or Germany for example. b) UK police had had their hands tied by the government. c) No ID cards means it is easy to vanish. d) Even if you are caught you won't be deported.
From my point of view it shows that the left play the long game very well whereas for Cameron long term planning probably means some time next week.
We live in interesting times.

ReplyDeleteWhat the left don't understand is that the more people they bring in, the more it costs and that cost needs paying for, so up go the taxes. Eventually people will do the minimum it takes to get by. Then the left will have even more of a problem, no more money for pet projects and then it will be 'will the last person to leave the country please turn off the lights'.

ReplyDeleteA conspiracy theorist suggested that the aim of both major parties is to so anger the populace that they openly protest against the porous borders of this country. This will allow those in power to declare such people racist and to bring in 'temporary emergency powers to restore order'. These powers will be similar to America's Patriot Act where arrests and detention can be made without the need for judicial action and the 'temporary' period will be extended and extended and extended.
ReplyDeletePenseivat
What Penseivat said and also do they have any real idea of how this could snap back? Not us - too languid for all that - but the Germans have a history of forceful objection. If I were an East German, having spent the last generation trying to catch up with the West, I don't think I'd be very happy at the number of people rocking up an demanding that I pay for them. Merkel does not resemble Mister 'itler; much more the mimsy Republic which could not get a grip on the situation.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that 'when it begins' it will be in Eastern Europe - or possibly in the former East Germany, as WOAR suggests.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you are still floating, by the way. Missed your blog.
Penseivat XX This will allow those in power to declare such people racist and to bring in 'temporary emergency powers to restore order'. XX It is happening NOW, in Germany!
ReplyDeleteLast week, they were all up in arms, they had their star performer, an "assylum" home was burned down in Berlin. "Neo nazi" screams everywhere.
Then the Police discovered it was a gang of 13 to 18 years olds from another "Asylum" home, that had broken in and set fire to the place.
Do we hear any appologies for the motherfucking "Government" and Media, blaming the local Germans?
Of COURSE we fucking don't. It does not fit in with the world view of the communist cunts in the Reichstag.
Guess what arseholes? Lightning CAN strike twice. Remember 27/02/33?
You are treading on dangerous ground.
XX I hope this story is around in about 20 years time so you can cringe at just how much of an idiot you were.XX No Julia;
ReplyDeleteWHEN it comes to the point where they are 51% of the population, because we stupidly taught them that, that was how democcracy works, then it will be all those liberal shits that are grassing us to he religious police for having a bottle of beer hidden in the cellar, or not going to mosque last Friday. It will be the dumb arsed cow in the organic crochet nickers, honoury member of the PTA, sandle wearing Lentil eating fuckwit living next door, who will be guarding the concentratiion camps they throw the rest of us into. Do not think for one second, they will see a flash of light, and find that we have been right all along. THEY will be part of the system, until the system decides to eat them. Even then, they will try and figure out if it was not maybe, THEIR fault for not being moslem/black enough, before forgiving their executioners. Born stupid stays stupid.
"...we're being "softened up" to accept more migrants."
ReplyDeleteIt's not working.
"I just see a complete failure of leadership by Cameron, May and the rest of them."
Hardly surprising, yet still somehow strangely disappointing...
"A conspiracy theorist suggested that the aim of both major parties is to so anger the populace that they openly protest against the porous borders of this country."
Was their name 'Cassandra'..?
"Nice to see you are still floating, by the way. Missed your blog."
Ditto! Welcome back, WoaR!
"Then the Police discovered it was a gang of 13 to 18 years olds from another "Asylum" home, that had broken in and set fire to the place."
ReplyDeleteAh! I saw the mention of a fire in a 'Guardian' article, but I never saw this follow up.. Thanks for this. And yes, it's noticeable how the answer doesn't get as much publicity. isn't it?
"..then it will be all those liberal shits that are grassing us to he religious police for having a bottle of beer hidden in the cellar, or not going to mosque last Friday."
Quite! History already tells us how this will play out.
There have been quite a few fires in these places in the last couple of months.
ReplyDeleteBut, media. HA!
The Calaise problem has only been reported here within the last four weeks.
My mates here are amazed when I tell them it has been going on for a good couple of years. Makes you wonder what is going on all over Europe, that is only reported locally.
