French riot police disperse migrants trying to storm Channel Tunnel

Fox News:

COQUELLES, France –  French riot police have sprayed migrants with a chemical irritant as they tried to storm the Channel Tunnel.

The group, which broke down several security fences late Saturday, was forced to retreat by riot police as the migrants attempted to breach the final fence near the entrance of the tunnel, which links France with Britain.

The migrants, estimated to number around 200 by an AP journalist, faced off for close to an hour with security forces, chanting slogans including: “Open the border” and “We are not animals.”

The Channel Tunnel is a 50-kilometer (30-mile) rail tunnel beneath the English Channel.

Thousands of migrants have been scaling fences near the tunnel in recent weeks, hopping on freight trains or trucks destined for Britain. One man was fatally crushed by a truck.

  1. There is one thing that must be stressed every time the plight of those poor desperate soon to be victims of racism, islamophobia and xenophobia is discussed.

    There are laws, rules and regulation regarding settlement but these people don’t give a f*** about that, What they want, bugger all the laws in Christendom, is all that matters. With an attitude like that how can the most bleeding of bleeding hearts even think of letting them in. They come in deliberately disregarding every law of citizenship and some idiots thinks they will learn citizenship once they are in.
