More Migrants Die Trying to Reach The Land Of Milk And Honey.

Forty one Migrants have drowned crossing the Mediterranean off the coast of Italy when their boat sank.

Of course the Left are saying it's a tragedy, but are not accepting culpability for the deaths. Because it's the Left that insist we keep accepting limitless numbers of migrants. It's the left that insist that we cannot remove the pull factors. It's the left that insist we can't introduce deterrent measures to reduce the numbers.

So instead we have to house the migrants, not in barracks, but in hotels. We can't just give them a room in a hotel, we have to give them pocket money. We have to feed them, clothe them (although I'm sure not up to the standards of the designer gear they had on when they crossed the Channel). I mean Asics? Go to hell, where's my Nike Airmax, I demand them now! Human Rights!

The thing the Left have yet to grasp is the things we had in place for our own hard-working population are pull factors for migrants and cause them to make the dangerous crossings. If the pull factors were removed, or restricted to tax-paying or long-term residents, then there would be no crossings.

"We've always had these pull factors in place and the crossings didn't happen before" say the left. And that's true. But things have changed. Not the pull factors, but now there is an organised crime network built up to exploit those people willing to risk their lives to get to the land of plentiful. To exploit our good nature and hospitality.

The huge crime network is the difference. Created from the remains of the radical terrorist organisations, the crime network spans the whole of Africa, the Middle East  and parts of Asia. These are the scraps if ISIS, Islamic Jihad, Al Queda and a host of other "former" terrorist organisations. It's the equivalent of a mobster going legit. The terrorist organisations did this previously to move agents around, but now they've found those networks can move ordinary people around for profit. Huge profit.

And to be honest, if they mix a terrorist or ten in amongst the ordinary desperate people, then that's great, they have sleeper agents within their enemy's territory. 

The crime bosses have jumped on the bandwagon and used the networks to transport effectively slave labour for their drug networks and their sweatshops and money laundering enterprises in the West.

All those hand car washes and Turkish barbers need staffing somehow to keep the money laundering happening. But it's all legit. Those huge "loans" given to start the business up need repaying at huge interest rates. Or someone loses a finger, or a family member.

The other institutions that are supposed to stop organised crime are no better. The Banks close Fred the butcher's account because he deals in cash, because his elderly customers deal in cash as well. Typical money laundering activity apparently. But ignore the huge loans for brand new businesses. And the Police? Hah! Don't make me laugh. They're too busy issuing PFNs and scouring the internet for hate speech. Organised crime? Not on the radar for the Socialists in charge because all business is exploitation and crime according to these quasi-Marxists. They can't tell the difference.

Sometimes I really despair. Are our intelligence services that thick? (Yes) Do they not have assets in place to hear the same things I'm hearing? Do they have intelligence on this but the government refuse to act? Are the government passing information on to other governments, but the foreign government fail to act? Transparency would be great in alleviating the political pressure.

The thing that pisses me off is the lack of transparency. The government come across as inept and incompetent.  

And without evidence to the contrary that's the only conclusion I can come to.
