Billggski Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Not really an aire, just a supermarket car park. There are safer and more pleasant places a few miles out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope something good comes from it, and the French NOW do something about getting rid of the illegals, instead of just saying we should help.

Guest JudgeMental Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 why are you automatically equating "bandits" with migrants I wonder 8-) If concerned stay elsewhere, lots of choice outside Calais..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Had Enough Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 We don't stay in Calais after arriving as we like to get a few miles under our belt and stay on a picnic aire after a hour our two's driving. However, when leaving the next morning we always stay at Cité Europe as it's very convenient and great for last-minute shopping. We used it about a month ago and as usual had no problem. You're surrounded by other motorhomes who'll keep an eye on your 'van if you both want to go for a meal of to shop. Illegal immigrants aren't interested in motorhomes. They try to get into lorries and other large vehicles and we have never had a single problem. I think that the threat is greatly exaggerated by those of an over-cautious or nervous disposition.

She could of used an insulting or untrue name I suppose Edward If the moderators aren't concerned with the bandit description or think it's not insulting in these highly policed times we find ourselves in then you need not show concern , it's safe .

Guest JudgeMental Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Sorry Anthony but this is blatant racism, tarring all with the same brush? assuming that all migrants are thieves and robbers when all most want is a ride.

Nothing I have seen supports this prejudice. Not after an argument Eddie neither do I want the thread pulled I don't think the original comment is racist and neither do I believe the poster to be a racist I think it was meant as just one of those throw away comments that unfortunately in the PC world we live in is not acceptable to some ...

Will86 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The Media in general produce eye popping headlines to grab our attention and its so easy for us posters to follow suit. Media headlines also aggravate the reader causing us to retaliate, that's the intention of the marketing organisers to cause the public disquiet. (Disgruntled people buy more goods, as I'm always saying). Maybe we should all tone down our headlines? Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly because our voters have in general lacked the imagination to vote outside their comfort zone for decades, we have ended up with the indigenous population getting used to they're wishes coming second to the establishment and the EU :-| ..........

Brabander Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 So you believe that the most of the other British voters are stupid and that only UKIP voters are intelligent? You are free to have your political opinions but I do not believe that they should be exhibited so openly in a forum such as this. I am only a newcomer in "Motorhome Matters" but I believe that your strapline is out of place here. It would also been out of place if it had said "vote labour" or whatever party you chose to support. Hope you have a pleasant time in good old Europe wherever that may be.

Well said, there's more than one person on here who pushes an agenda (or even two or three) with every post that they make. And you'll soon work out who's intelligent and who isn't. Personally, I don't think that anyone who doesn't understand the difference between they're (they are) and their (possessive pronoun) should be allowed a vote! It's not really that difficult to understand. *-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terry1956 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 In reply to judge. You are 100 percent correct.the immergrants at calais do want a ride.a free ride off the backs of UK tax payers. I think that people with your views have lead to this once great country becoming the nightmare it is now.my partner works in the NHS and is watching first hand the total joy these immergrants bring to the UK.NOT.

My son is an emigrant/immigrant to South Africa where he is building up a successful business, employing South African nationals and putting money into their economy.

Your husband is immigration at its best Poppy and no one with half a brain could say differently ... The open door policy of immigration we have and so loved by Tony and Gordon for me is different Like Gordon calling that old lass a bigot we also have one or two on here who say the same and worse to scare or shame folk into keeping quiet when immigration comes up ...
