Rejected petition Block the Euro-Channel until further measures are put in place

More details

As of the latest news it has come across that ILLEGAL immigrants are trying to break into the UK by trespassing the fences of the EuroChannel at Calais (in France).

It is crucial that action is put in place before the UK gets more affected.

France is not doing enough to keep them away from Great Britain (mainland) and this could affect the country's reputation not only but could it also affect legal residents in the UK.

At this point in time, blocking the Euro-Channel until further action is put in place; would be the best option.

The government should also consider re-enforcing policing in France by deploying UK Police Officers in the Channel's crossing points daily.
