I do feel sorry for her but I can't help thinking......It's the chance you take.

Sad, but true

Why did none of those fighting age young men try to save her ?

Good question.

Probably the same reason why the women in the recent Afghanistan earthquake weren't rescued,  the male rescuers refused to touch women.  Women were also prevented from carrying out rescue operations.

What a disgusting way to behave.

The dinghy boys seem to have little scruples about touching women here.

Our UK Coastguard sent.. Boarder Force vessel.. Two life boats.. and a Helicopter..
to the scene.. And sent Mayday call to other shipping in the area..
Costing us a small fortune...

I do not donate to Lifeboat Charities any more... 
I used to give them a few pounds ... 
I do feel sorry for them because they are just doing a job.. Saving lives at sea..
But... If the government want illegals over here let them pay all costs out of their own pockets...

Im sure I've mentioned this before, but Starmer is culpable for this woman's death due to his abject failure to put an end to people trying to enter the UK through these means.  If he had done his job properly, then there would be a sufficient deterrent to stop anyone getting in a dinghy, the beaches in France wouldn't have camps (because there'd be no point in anyone going there), and the gangs would be "smashed" since they wouldn't have any customers.  Plus the coast guard and RNLI could get back to doing what we pay them (via taxes/donations) for.

And this woman would most likely still be alive!

That's very true !

Now that's a good idea. Don't fund them from general taxation just set up a central fund which takes 50% of all MPs income (as MPs and any private jobs) plus anybody identified on one of those bloody Refugees Welcome demos gets their tax code or benefits adjusted to take 10% and if they have a banner 20%.

Sorted.
