You lot need locking up for your own safety! Might I suggest that as you clearly love living amongst these 'asylum seekers' you exercise your 'freedom of movement' and make a permanent move to Calais once and for all. Still, I don't know what you are so worried about, with close on to an estimated quarter of a million immigrants coming here during 2009 I would suggest we more or less have 'open borders' already. The phrase 'useful idiots' come to mind.

The No Borders South Wales minibus is currently being held at UK border control- looks like they may miss the ferry.

Well, thanks for your well-reasoned and sound, logical arguments! No more than what I expected from you fuckwits, of course. Incidentally, though you only wrote one line your spelling and grammar is as crap as your arguments. Perhaps you were in one of the 14% of schools where English is no longer the first language, which probably explains it...Still, being stuck in front of a computer means you had more sense than join the other useful idiots living it up in the squalor of a Calais refugee camp...

oops !

Well some of the No Borders people made it to the camp yesterday......... and promptly got robbed by three asylum seekers !

Two mobile phones, an ipod, about £300 in Euros and some loose change in Pound Sterling after knives were held to the throats of two No Borders activists from London who had traveled over via the Eurotunnel in their van with the idea of providing medical advice (they are medical students). One of them 'Dan' said,

"This was not the welcome we were expecting, the level of hostility we faced was a big shock. When we tried to speak to them about politics and imperialism later in the day we realised they are just not interested. They have one ambition and one only, get to the UK, get a job and to then buy things ! They are quite simply obsessed with the aquisition of consummer goods, mobile phones, TV's, cars and ipods top the list. We tried to discuss green politics and post-Imperialistic attitudes to consumption with an emphasis on exploitation of developing countries economies but they just laughed at us. I am not sure what we are doing here to be honest. I think we will just leave the medicines we have bought and leave"
