All of the politicians profess to be horrified by a combat veteran pointing out the completely obvious about the invasion of Britain.
The commander who led the land operation to liberate the Falklands has triggered a furore by saying that boats carrying migrants across the Channel should be machine-gunned.
‘I would shoot them,’ Major-General Julian Thompson told a documentary about mass immigration to Britain.
The Home Office warned today that anyone taking the law into their own hands would face ‘serious criminal consequences’, while the Tories stressed that ‘opening fire on migrant boats would be completely wrong’.
Maj Gen Thompson, 92, who headed 3 Commando Brigade during the conflict, said of the thousands of migrants who land on UK shores each month: ‘We could stop them tomorrow if we really had the guts. I’d shoot them, sorry, but I would.’
When contacted by The Mail on Sunday, Maj Gen Thompson clarified that he thought the bullets should be aimed at the vessels, not the occupants.
Asked if he feared a backlash to his remarks, Maj Gen Thompson said: ‘As long as they don’t come around here, I don’t mind what they do.
‘They come over here and rape our girls. One machine-gun blast is all it would take… then they would get the message. I just want them to bugger off.
‘If they [the Government] don’t stop them then there will be a revolution. Our leaders are just wet.’
The government not only won’t stop them, the government is aiding and abetting them. So of course there will be a revolution, and war, because that is part of the national cycle once foreigners start taking control of the reins of influence and power.
This isn’t anything new. It wasn’t new when the Goths took refuge from the Huns in the Eastern Roman Empire, and within forty years had killed the emperor and sacked Rome. It wasn’t even new when the Israelites escaped Egypt and entered the land of Canaan.
There are always those who invite the invaders and welcome the refugees and do their best to suppress the national reaction. Those who start the conflagrations are responsible for the inevitable violence, not those who put them out. It’s just irritating that everyone pretends to take their idiotic arguments seriously when almost everyone knows better.
Immigration is war. Immigration has ALWAYS been war.
Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp said: ‘Opening fire on migrant boats would be completely wrong. ‘I understand people’s anger at migrant crossings but we cannot shoot at people. There is another way to end this.
Britain has certainly fallen a long, long way from “we shall fight them on the beaches!” What a sad, despicable little place it has become.
