... will this, admittedly amongst other issues, have a great deal to do with it?

The situation in Calais is extraordinary: it is now being described as a “war zone.”

This is the European Union today: its policies have caused a breakdown in law and order so bad that many ordinary working people driving trucks between England and France can’t do their jobs properly and fear for their lives.

The documentary below illustrates this, although it fails to ask the tough question: how many are just economic migrants, not genuine refugees.

How are the policies that have led to this, and allow it to continue, left-wing?

And if the National Front wins big in France in the coming days, as many suspect, will left-wing people in Europe be able to face the reality that radical changes are needed in their policies on the EU, economic sovereignty and open borders?

Lord Keynes
Realist Left social democrat, left wing, blogger, Post Keynesian in economics, but against the regressive left, against Postmodernism, against Marxism
