What do police on the front line make of plans to stop the boats?

France has sent officers into the water to slash and deflate boats as it weighs up new approaches to stem the tide of migrant crossings

Nicolas Laroye, a veteran of France’s border police, spent more than a decade patrolling the coast around Dunkirk in search of migrants. Now he shares the frustration of colleagues who have taken over what has become a near impossible task.

“Of course we want to stop the migrants,” he said, as we sat in a cafe. “But we know that they will keep trying and trying and that in the end they will all get through.”

I doubt they care much that the migrants are leaving France.

Leftist MPs Want To Ban News Reports on Migrant Crime To Prevent ‘Far Right’ Speech

On June 10th, President Macron spoke out against “the tyranny of news” (faits divers) and said that the French were being “brainwashed” about murders that hit the headlines and shocked French public opinion in recent months. In line with this observation, several left-wing MPs proposed an amendment to media regulations aimed at “conducting an editorial review of the place of news items in the coverage of current events” in the public media. Behind this move lies an attempt to stifle media coverage of these cases—which are in fact linked to immigration.

Trump Announces He’s Working on Mass Amnesty Plan for Illegal Aliens After Passing ‘Big Beautiful Bill’

In his first speech after the House passed his “Big Beautiful Bill,” President Trump on Thursday announced he’s working on a mass amnesty for potentially millions of illegal aliens working in farm, hotel and leisure industries which “radical right people” won’t be happy about.

Stupid move. A betrayal.

Trump admin stops handing over illegal migrant criminals to California for prosecution — it will just deport them instead

Keep dreaming, California.

When the feds nabbed a Chinese illegal immigrant who was wanted in Monterey Park, California, for assault with a deadly weapon they refused to release him back to the sanctuary Golden State to stand trial.

The risk, one Border Patrol leader said, is that he’ll just be released back onto the streets.

With his immigration bill, Canada’s prime minister is bowing to Trump

There are many stereotypes about Canada – that we are a nation of extremely polite people, a welcoming melting pot, and that we’re the US’s laid-back cousin who lives next door.

But right now, Canadian prime minister, Mark Carney, is bucking all of that lore after pressure from the US in the form of Donald Trump’s “concerns” about undocumented migrants and fentanyl moving across the US-Canada border. In response, the recently elected Liberal PM put forward a 127-page bill that includes, among other worrying provisions, sweeping changes to immigration policy that would make the process much more precarious for refugees and could pave the way for mass deportations.

Oh please. Just another Guardianista lamenting Trump’s success.

Chaos on French shores as ‘people trafficker’ is seen WHIPPING terrified migrants as they scramble to board boat bound for the UK

Migrants were whipped by apparent people smugglers and a desperate mother with a baby hauled onto a dinghy amid extraordinary out-of-control scenes in France this morning.

The Mail beat French police to the shore at small-boat hotspot Gravelines beach at 5.30am, where large groups of migrants were running the mile down to the beach to reach the waves.

The group, all young men, were up to their knees in the water as a dinghy emerged from a canal into the sea, and turned back to the shoreline towards them.

Migrant Channel crossings hit a record 20,000 in six months

More than 20,000 migrants have crossed the Channel this year, setting a new record high for the first six months of a year.

In June 5,170 migrants crossed the Channel in 80 boats, which was also a record month for this year. Home Office figures showed Border Force picked up 879 people in 13 dinghies on Monday, the third highest number of arrivals on a single day this year as people smugglers took advantage of record high temperatures and calm conditions in the Channel to ferry people across.

It made the annual tally so far 19,982 in 343 boats — but hundreds more followed on Tuesday, taking the total to more than 20,000. The Home Office will publish the precise number to have crossed on Wednesday.

The absolute genius of Florida’s ‘Alligator Alcatraz’

The news lately has been so wonderful—Iran gelded, peace deals breaking out all over, the Supreme Court issuing excellent rulings, etc.—that it’s hard to say that this or that story is my favorite. But today, my favorite is absolutely the fact that an illegal alien detention center, nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” is opening in Florida. The new center can hold as many as 5,000 people, but the best part is the location: It’s in the middle of the Everglades, where Florida’s wildlife will provide the bulk of the security. The story works at so many levels, it’s almost hard to grasp it all

You can get a sense of how wonderful the detention center will be by reading the New York Times’s coverage …

Why Do 1,000 Refugees Get Free Wimbledon Tickets While Long Suffering Locals Get None?

Glancing upwards only to spot a drone hovering over their gardens last week was the last straw for residents of Welford Place SW19, whose homes overlook the much lauded All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC). While the eye in the sky probably belongs to an accredited broadcaster scouting out local colour ahead of the annual championships, the intrusion felt all too typical of the approach that the Wimbledon high command itself takes to its near neighbours. The annual championships may charm a world audience with its cultivated celebration of grass court tennis, strawberries and a nostalgic evocation of English fair play, but for neighbours this image, as carefully manicured as its famous lawns, is virtually shredded. From a highly controversial planning application to a woke offer of 1,000 free tickets for refugees, local Wimbledonians feel excluded as never before from the international spectacle on their doorsteps.

California hopes law from bloody era of U.S. history can rein in Trump’s use of troops

California’s fight to rein in President Trump’s deployment of troops to Los Angeles hinges on a 19th century law with a a blood-soaked origin and a name that seems pulled from a Spaghetti Western.

In a pivotal ruling this week, Senior U.S. District Judge Charles R. Breyer ordered the federal government to hand over evidence to state authorities seeking to prove that the actions of troops in Southern California violate the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which forbids soldiers from enforcing civilian laws.

“How President Trump has used and is using the federalized National Guard and the Marines since deploying them at the beginning of June is plainly relevant to the Posse Comitatus Act,” Breyer wrote Wednesday in his order authorizing “limited expedited discovery.”

Trump scores major win in birthright citizenship case as Supreme Court curbs nationwide injunctions

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court ruled Friday that nationwide injunctions issued by lower court judges “likely exceed” the judicial branch’s constitutional authority — handing the Trump administration a big win in the high court’s most closely-watched case this term.

“[F]ederal courts do not exercise general oversight of the Executive Branch; they resolve cases and controversies consistent with the authority Congress has given them,” conservative Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote for the court’s conservative majority.
