Uk charity giving up on Calais

I did, thanks.

You could always take a look at jingl's link, granjura

This was also on the BBC news Granjura.

I will still carry on sending to the small charity in Turkey; it is delivered to where they know it is needed by trusted drivers to genuine refugees.

Foxnews, I see. Did you remember their famous item on immigration in Birmingham?!?!

My TeaParty Trump voting relatives in the USA of course say BBC is really biased and Fox News the only totally reliable source of the TRUTH.

We cannot agree to disagree on this one, I'm afraid.

I read about Dismaland going to be packed up and sent to Calais! It will be put straight onto eBay I suspect.

I didn't spot your blue bit, jingl. My specs probably need a clean. I've been painting a ceiling so everything's foggy.

I should put the long version up. I don't think anyone sees the short links.

It is. That's why I put that link up.

I thought it was going to be used for emergency accommodation.

oh, I see

Shouldn't think so. It would be warmer than tents wouldn't it?

Why? They'd have a heck of a trek first!
Besides, it's all destined for exhibitions elsewhere merlotgran

Why would they do that?

Will they be setting fire to Banksy's dismantled Dismaland I wonder?

The vast majority at Calais are economic migrants, not refugees, young, fit men fleeing from conscription and who want to get here for benefits etc

Donations taken to there are being burnt on bonfires because they want mobile phones, iPads and money not clothing, toiletries etc.

A local organisation took four transit vans full of donations which were scornfully refused, so brought it all back again. It included tents, sleeping bags, blankets, toiletries etc. The accompanying people were shocked and disgusted as well as disappointed, the donations have now gone to homeless charity in nearby city.

ooops meant to -expat- and instead it

Care to expand? One young British woman I have befriended on an expat immigrant Forum in France has been working tirelessly to get supplies to Calais- wonderful and caring person.

Can't be true if it's in the DM, apparently...
