This is some dystopian lord of the flies hell. Those poor women. Burned on the boat. Wth. Poor man stabbed to death. Why are the people that did this then going to be roaming free in the UK? Why are they allowed to enter the UK in the first place? Why are gangs not being 'smashed'?

Why won't the government tell us the truth about their crime rates?

AIBU to be deeply concerned about the sheer number of unchecked undocumented unknown men coming into the UK.

Channel chaos as migrant dies, two women burned and one stabbed on same boat

Forty-five of those on board continued towards the UK and were picked up by a British rescue vessel.

We are all thick and gullible and @CoventryCity puppets. It's like being back at school with that mentality and still isn't shutting down conversation.

I’m embarrassed for her and the other posters of the same ilk.

Me too. Projecting aren't they, and it isn't pretty.

And they have the gall to call us uneducated and gullible.

Pathetic.

When your fleeing from scorching hot third world countries with no social care system at all no docs no money for anything of course anything they get here is incredible we enjoy even in the basics a far higher standard of living dont we!
Proper beds off the ground /mattress /pillows proper loos and washing facilities , electricty and kettles and fridges ! All luxuries we take for granted

But no difference to the rest of Europe

Probably lying, how can a 19yr old have been an interpreter for the British army in Afghanistan between 2006 to 2014? He would have been aged 0 to 7.

No British unit would allow a kid to work as an interpreter.

Says he's 36. Where do you get 19 from

I think the girl he raped was 19.

The poster must have got it mixed up.

So awful 😞. Whatever we’re doing as a way to let men in it’s not working.

Idk why people defend it no matter what.

It is awful.

That poor girl thought she was doing the safe thing by taking a taxi.

Scumbag.

Some will say because domestic Scottish men rape, it's not an issue.

Yep. Imagine anyone who thinks this telling the 19 year old girl it’s the reason.

And then say that some women think it’s wrong but they too get abuse, mockery etc and silencing attempts to stop objections.

I mean wth is going on with this stuff. It’s beyond

I don’t understand it either.

I saw one poster saying to @LuckyHazelFox on the data thread ‘How many times do you need to be told? There’s enough xenophobia in this country already’

Or something like that.

It wasn’t sunburn, the French was clear these were burns not sunburns, however they are likely accidental burns given no criminal investigation is happening. Well, just thinking out loud, unless the guy who was stabbed burnt the women and that is how he ended up stabbed? Either self defence by one of the women or by another man trying to protect them?

Yes, the French word used was “brûlure”. Sunburn is coup de soleil.

'Migrant women and girls who remain in Ceuta have been sleeping in the open air along with hundreds of other Moroccan, sub-Saharan and South Asian migrants.

Wafae Atid, a 28-year-old from the northern Moroccan city of Taza who is living in a migrant camp, told Reuters: 'It's really bad ... A lot of guys are trying to attack the girls every night, sometimes just when you go to the toilet. They follow you.'

Spain moves 500 migrant girls from Ceuta following spate of rapes

At least 500 migrant girls will be moved from the North African enclave of Ceuta to mainland Spain following reports of sexual assault.
