With all the discussion around migrants crossing the English Channel I figured it would be good to remind everyone of why they’re doing that.

Traffickers and progressives promised illegal migrants a paradise in Europe. They never found it. They keep searching in every country.
It doesn’t exist. It doesn’t even exist for Europeans. Now you have migrants stuck with no hopes in a continent culturally At odds with their own. With no border restrictions they - and Europeans - are now stuck with the very extremists and criminals many attempted to flee from.
It’s a tragedy for both the European people and many migrants themselves. With only traffickers, terrorists and violent criminals winning in the end.

All of this is covered in my documentary #Borderless

I figured it would be good to expand on this with an interesting piece of info I picked up in Turkey.

Afghan migrants I met told me they had been resettled in Turkey for years when a trafficker specifically came to them and sold / convinced them to make the trip.
the constant narrative of immediately “fleeing war” shows a stark misunderstanding of what’s going on from the MSM.

Yes I believe many people are being taken advantage of. But there’s a gross negligence by journalists to leave out the trafficking rings and NGOs pushing this.
