Just like the reasoning behind walls at a zoo, you have to keep the dangerous wild animals at bay.

Re: GREAT WALL OF CALAIS: Britain to build HUGE barrier amid predicted Brexit migrant surge
BRITAIN is to build an enormous wall around the port of Calais amid a surge in migrant attempts to cross the Channel following the Brexit vote.

A vast concrete barrier will be put up as signs migrants are mobilising for a mass bid to reach the UK before we leave the EU for good. It is being rushed through after the number of migrant incursions were said to have rocketed by more than sevenfold in the weeks surrounding the decision to quit the Brussels club.

Hope there'll be gun turrets at the top.

Absurd isn't it, half of Europe building walls to keep them out, while Germany let's them pour in.

Make Britain great again!!!
 Quoting: R. Wordsworth


The West will not be "great again" until we cut off the welfare state. Walls are lovely, I love walls but that is only the first step the second and most important is to deny any services or benefits to the immigrant. Does anyone think they will keep coming if once they got here (or there) they faced starving to death?

No housing, no medical, no food, no money, no exceptions, period! We have been sucker too long for the third world.

We need to brick that tunnel up, it's good for freight but that's about it. Animals are not supposed to be able to get through there as part of the design as a way to stop rabies coming back to the UK yet we have migrants managing to get through it. Brick the fucker up and bring the hovercraft back out of retirement.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38874321


Let me say mate, they didnt want to build it in the first place due to exactly this...

"In 1880, a tunnel more than a mile long was drilled before the project was scrapped yet again. The topic came up again in 1929, but with World War I a not-so-distant memory, England was concerned about a surprise attack by train. To allay those fears, the new plans included sumps on both sides of the tunnel that would allow either country to flood a section of the tunnel. Another concern was that England would become “a holiday resort for hordes of more or less undesirable people, who would introduce foreign customs, deface the countryside and otherwise interrupt English habits of living.

less than 50%

Yeah - they were less pc then lol

We are still in the EU... nothing has changed yet.

We are not in schengen free movement area, thank god for small mercies. I believe this has saved many lives in the UK.

There is no way France will let us build a wall. They want to stiff us with all these illegal migrants in France who the UK has not invited or want anything to do with.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72516479


Not only that, refugees and asylum seekers is governed by the 1951 Geneva Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, a treaty signed by the UK long before anyone ever thought of EU. It is childish to think that a Trump wall will do anything to change that.

Leaving the EU will only affect the free movement of other EU citizens. It will do nothing about the arab, african, or asian refugee status seekers.

The Convention, to which the UK is a signatory, states that refugees should not be penalised for their illegal entry or stay, while its non-refoulement clause prohibits the expelling or returning a refugee “in any manner whatsoever to the frontiers of territories where his life or freedom would be threatened.”

A silly TrumpWall is absolutely pointless. Besides, what would that prevent anyway? Immigrants swimming across the Channel?
