I am torn between putting this in int cell or Naafi, will try here first.
The MV Aquarius and the Lifeline I suppose are amongst other Charity ships operating in the Med to assist MENA migrants into Europe.
They are doing it under the virtue of rescuing people but let's face it, they are doing it for the sole reason of assisting people smuggling.
These Charities ships, once embarked with hundreds of migrants seeking European benefits become floating political tools, like right now trying to seek Malta take in illegal immigrants, will the charity pay for their stay in Malta and process to an accepting country and benefits? Or have they caused the issue they set out to once they drop off the migrants and sail off to smuggle some more unwanted?
This influx is not helping solve the problem, instead of one changing one huge 3rd world in Africa, we are just exporting problems elsewhere.
Why do these Charity people smugglers have to head north, can they not drop the migrants back into North Africa where perhaps they can use some of their money to improve the standard of living over there? I'm sure if the Chinese work for pennies the Africans can become a formidable economy?
