If You Want To Help Refugees Stop Helping To Kill Them

In recent weeks and probably up to the UK election (7 May 2015) and beyond,

the main focus for the hand wringing and breast beating is the plight of the

Mediterranean boat people, those unfortunates who, seeking a way out of poverty or

escape from a war zone have put their lives in the hands of some of the most ruthless

and brutal criminals in the modern world (and by modern standards criminals of the

past were pussy cats).

The hand wringing and breast beating is pure hypocrisy of course, just the latest

example of the emotionally retarded left's need to be seen to care If these people

actually did care about their fellow human beings rather than gathering brownie

points with which to buy indulgences and thus escape a Kafkaesque trial of our worth

as people, they might understand their cultural Marxist 'caring' does more harm than

good.

But while the emotionally needy petit bourgeoisie might feel their guilt at being

born in a relatively prosperous nation could be salved by supporting the efforts of the

Labour party to change voter demographic so much by encouraging unrestricted

immigation, to a one party state (the votes of new migrants being bought by the

generous state benefits only a Labour government would provide, the policy may

have succeeded in cementing Labour support among the suburbal and managerial

classes, but resulted in bittterly divided working class communities (from a new

media article in support of UKIP:

… we only need print the Labour quote with regard to forcing

uncontrolled and unending immigration on the British nation to

'rub noses in diversity' and also the note on the day Labour left

office boasting that there was 'no money left' to demonstrate the

intention of Labour to destroy British culture, population, society

and laws and to spend taxpayers' money not only on industrial

scale irresponsibility but for Party use and Marxist projects.

Even senior members of the last Labour government, including Jack Straw and

David Blunkett, have spoken out against that policy, citing the social problems in

their constituencies caused by mass immigration.

But are the hand wringers and breast beaters who wail that 'anybody who wants

to come to Britain and make a better life for themselves should be allowed in and

given citizenship without questions' really doing migrants any favours or are these

pious fools (yes, leftist thinking is like the dogma and creed of a fundamentalist

religion,) Any self righteous fool who thinks they are 'helping the poor' does not

know how the illegal immigration business works. So here's a beginners guide to this

ugliest of all crimes.

Take a walk eastwards along the Marine Drive from my Dear Old Mum's home in

Morecambe Lancashire and before covering half a mile, while looking out across the

bay's wide expanse of sands towards the Lake District fells you will come across a

memorial to a group of Chinese migrants who, while cockling in the shallow but

treacherous waters of Morcambe Bay where channels carved trough the sand by

outflow from rivers that empty into the bay shift constantly and an area of firm sand

can become quicksand in a matter of hours.

Thus it was with

the group of shellfish

harvesters dumped on

the sands that

February night in

2004. They were

given a sack, a scoop

and a tool for raising

the clams to the

surface and left, in

the dark, to gather

shellfish that were destined for the tables of expensive restaurants where the

bourgeois left wing luvvies would gather to eat dinners that cost more than a cockler

could earn in a week (don't look at me, I might eat in expensive restaurants, but never

shellfish) congratulate themselves on how much they were doing for the fight against

oppression and exploitation.

In the darkess, far away from their homes and families, as the Chinese cocklers

were overwhelmed by the cold waters of the inrushing tide, the truck they had used to

reach the cockle beds was submerged. Some tried to swim to safety, others huddled

together on a sandbank, hoping for rescue. Just one had a mobile telephone and knew

enough English to call for help, but due to his being unable to give a clear description

of the location which meant the authorities had to get an electronic trace on the call, it

was too late when help arrived. The man with the mobile phone was the only one to

be rescued, twenty one bodies were recovered. Nobody knows how many went out to

the cockle beds.

Irony, the gang masters for whom the cocklers were working didn't give and more

of a flying fuck for the resaurant customers who would eat their plunder that they did

for the workers whose lives they risked. A recent case of oyster rustling on the north

Kent coast in southern England showed that the harvest was shelled on the beach to

be shipped straight to customers. Shellfish (bivalves) should be purified by being kept

Near Hest Bank, Morecambe

in clean water for several days before they are fit to be eaten. If this is not done a

moment's carelessness by a chef can easily result in serious food poisoning.

The Morecambe Bay cocklers had no right to be out plundering the cockle beds,

there is a strict licensing policy in operation to preserve stocks of shellfish, and also

to prevent people who have not been properly schooled in survival techniques and

safety equipment requirements putting their lives at risk. The Chinese cocklers did

not know anything about that, they should not have been in Britain and few

understood English adequately to read warnings. But they had no choice anyway, the

Chinese cocklers were effectively slaves, owned by the gangs who transported them,

in conditions worse than are found on a cattle boat, from their homes half a world

away to Britain to provide cheap labour for criminal operations.

The hand wringers and breast beaters of the left say we must let them all come,

all the impoverished, marginalised, oppressed, persecuted and simply malcontent. I

even saw on Facebook one university dumbed down idiot, in response to a UKIP

candidate's protestation that Britain was full, claim that if you look at Google Earth

it's clear there is lots of land in Britain not built on, which could be used to

accommodate migrants. It's typical of the dumbing down effect of Cultural Marxist

brainwashing administered in universities that the imbecile was unaware of the

problems cause by interfering with natural drainage, the importance of woodland and

peat upland environments, wetlands and so one, none of which are suitable for human

habitation. Oh no, all the people in the world should be invited to come to Britain,

after all there are only seven billion people and we have three hundred billion square

yards of land, everybody could have 45 square yards in which to house themselves,

grow food and do everything else humans have to do.

University dumbed down Lefties are nothing if not selfish and egocentric of

course so with that in mind we can understand what this por loser was saying is

“Look at me, look at me everybody, see how much I care about the poor, the opressed

and the deprived. And PLEASE, PLEASE give me a few Facebook likes to prop up

my self esteem.

The lefties don't actually care about the

poor and oppressed, all they care about is

being seen to care.

It is just over then years since the

tragedy of the Chinese cocklers made us

aware of the real problem behind all the

left's silly, sentimental politicising of

human misery. That was not an isolated

incident, about the same time Ian

Rankin's Inspector Rebus novel,

Fleshmarket Close* was published. As

well as featuring a very similar situation

of illegal shellfish harvesting on the Firth of Forth, east of Scotland's capital

Edinburgh (I checked, there were several real cases prosecuted in that area) the novel

deals with the general exploitaton of illegal immigrants by the criminal networks that

get them into Britain, Germany, France, The Netherlands and North America. It

covered people trafficked to work in the sex trade, the employment of illegal

immigrants at third world pay rates in various dangerous and unpleasant occupations

and even the treatment of those who have pledge a kidney or eyeball as surety for

their passage.

The bourgeois left might talk of fairness, equality and human rights but the result

of the Labour government's 'open doors' immigration policy from 1997 to 2010 was

exploitation, oppression and abuses of human rights, all of which went on well away

from the smart suburbs where the luvvies live but was enabled by their self

righteousness.

So our left wing do – gooders were complicit in those deaths just as surely as if

they had held heads under the waters of the rising tide. And as these pious fools are

complicit in the deaths of the people trying yo cross from Libya on the north African

coast to the Italian island of Lampedusa in unseaworthy boats.

Many people in Europe and the Anglosphere think that giving the illegal arrivals

Edinburgh's Fleshmarket Close (18 century engraving - recent photos are subject to copyright)

automatic citizenship would somehow free them from the debt bond by which their

exploiters hold them. It wouldn’t. The illegals are people with no job skills, little or

no command of English, very little prospect of a legitimate income, and a huge debt

owed to the people traffiking criminal gangs for bringing them out of Africa, Asia,

South America and Eastern Europe to Britain and other developed nations. A

mountain of debt which can only be repaid, if ever, by doing whatever the British

criminals tell them to do. Whether that be picking cockles in insanely dangerous

conditions, working with hazardous materials without proper protective gear,

prostitution, or stealing and committing crimes by order of their masters.

What would giving such victims citizenship do for them? Giving illegals

citizenship would do nothing to change the fact that they still owe money, that should

we pluck them to the safety of patrolled refugee camps, the smugglers know where

they live, and where to find their families back in the country they fled, relatives who

are depending on them, for whatever pittance they can send home.

There is only one way to help people like the Morcambe Bay cocklers; stop them

from coming in the first place. But how do we do that? The people smugglers entice

their victims into handing over their life savings, into running up those impossible

debts, with a lie, by proving with phone calls and letters, how many people in their

“care” reached the promised land. The only way is to round up all the illigal migrants

and send them home, so word gets round there is no promised land, “where the

government pays you a wage for doing nothing” in Europe.

*Fleshmarket Close is a real street in Edinburgh, once the place where butchers

had their stalls, so Ian Rankin's title has a double meaning.
