      They think it will scare away the migrants that did everything they could to get there, including cross rough seas at the risk of certain death. They’re also often fleeing certain death, which is why they left in the first place.

      In other words, it won’t.

      This guy went to kill his ex-boss and ex-coworkers… Don’t know if the 2 migrants were collateral damage or a secondary target.

      They’re not poor people, they’re immigrants and all that entails. When I worked in the can in Calais, the fast would turn up and start fights and abuse people, and the police just watched. It’s not a great environment round there
