ABOUT 300 Africans including women and children, part of a new surge of illegal migration to Europe, are feared to have drowned after their boats capsized off Libya.
At least 23 bodies were reportedly found by Libyan coastguards near the wreckage of three rickety boats which sailed from near Tripoli. A similar number were rescued, officials said yesterday.

As human beings I have great sympathy with the 300 that lost their lives attempting to illegally enter Europe (the UK ).

As a citizen of the UK watching as year by year the country I was born in and have worked in has changed beyond all recognition in a way most of its indiginous popu;lation did not want I can only feel sympathy for the dead the living should be sent back from whence they came.
This coubtry cannot afford these people and nether can any European country.
Realy hard times are ahead and we should look after our own first.

As far as the pC lot are concerned I would take more notice of them if they offered to emigrate to the lands of these illegal immigrants on a one for one swap.

!!! I shall listen for the stampede of feet - and cheer them on as they rush to hand in their UK passports as they make their way.

Here here #1. I agree wholeheartedly. Unfortunately liberal European governments are both incapable and unwilling to deal with this huge problem. Their failed policies and misguided agendas have led to the situation we have now: illegal immigration chaos that will lead to god knows what.
