Bit of a stretch to compare a nation of 318 million to an illegal shanty camp of no more than 4000 people, who are all refusing to register and claim asylum in France which would gain them UN standard of care and assistance from French authorities?

Its beautiful and comical to see the words used to push fear, women in the usa get sexually assaulted every 107 seconds, damn those evil rampaging muslims.
Thanks for the propaganda.
What propaganda? Who? Where?

Keep the propaganda up my friend, history repeats itself once again, mass migration always comes with great propaganda, but hey daily fail told you the truth.
More and more women and children were now coming to live in the jungle and the local newspapers estimated the camp had over 10,000 November inhabitants.
I've known British summer festivals with less food choice and many places stayed open till 4 AM and beyond. In fact, during the day it would remind you of an old-style festival, the open fires surrounded by groups of people cooking, chatting, smoking and even playing music. The days before EEC food regulations were back in the Calais jungle.There were theatres and schools, librairies and art centres, plus a lot of unfinished wooden projects.
We were at least 95% men in the camp and that was a major factor. Being a girl in this environment was difficult and as day would turn to night, you could feel the mood change. The dress code for women, children and men was clearly much less flamboyant than say the centre of Calais, but a night out in the jungle would cost you a lot less and nobody would leave the bar to go ouside if they wanted to smoke a cigarette.
Getting to England was most people's dream. I was largely over the place myself and you couldn't help wondering what most of these people would feel when they found our streets weren't paved with gold and getting a house or even a roof over their head was not going to just fall into place as easily as they thought it would. "You from England. England very good. I have cousin living in England. Yes must get to England."
Every morning around dawn you'd see a massive influx of all the migrants returning from a night out, looking for a way over or under the fences, climbing on to trains, slipping in or under trucks or hiding in people's vehicles, even their canoes. Some had been caught by the police and fingerprinted. This could now mean that they should apply for asylum in France, but most still dreamt that England was a much better destination, much much better.
For these people, the tired failures, the ones with twisted ankles from falls off trucks, cut hands from the barbed wire fences, it was back to where they were in the jungle; a tent hopefully, a change of clothes and a dry bed, maybe that of a friend who did make it across. There's no names on anyone's stuff once you enter this camp and everyone knows the rules of the jungle; if you're wearing it, riding it, holding it or using it, it's yours.
Setting up a kitchen in an environment where leaving a knife on a chopping board to put on a pan of water and come back to find your Opinel knife had walked, is always challenging. You couldn't get upset, not for an instant. "Heh, I've still got a chopping board and see they've left us the carrots". Stay positive. If someone runs off with your teapot when it's still hot and half full, just consider it your own fault for not having it in front of you.
Laugh about the fact that only yesterday you were chasing your teapot across the site then you were lucky enough to have it in your possesion for an extra 24 hours. This is just another form of distribution, you'll get over it, it wasn't yours in the first place and now somebody else is hopefully using it.
Besides we've got a whole kitchen of pots and pans, what have they got back at their gaffe? It's not theft, it's extended borrowing . . . etc. etc.

A celebrity singer could bring attention to this issue.
Let's say 10,000, and assume 10% trapped in a trafficking/enslavement situation. That leaves 9000 people who are refusing to register and claim asylum in France.

The estimates seem to be saying around 6 to 10 thousand migrants.
Oh dear, you are mistaken, I have said nothing of the sort and this is not my OP, lol.

Always the same answers, you have failed to prove that gangs of muslims are dragging women in the street to rape, but hey im the one making stuff up.
Google is your friend.

when are you going to address this fact that hollande is as guilty if he allows it to go unpoliced.
Some yes, the others know that registering in another safe EU nation means that if they make it illegally through the Channel tunnel then they cannot claim asylum in the UK as their first safe nation. The UK would send them back to France.

They don't want asylum because that'll get them kicked out, so that's why they remain undocumented.

The treatment of women in all Muslim countries is mostly very poor, so no surprise that they are brutalised by all these young men.
