[quote]Clashes have broken out between police and refugees living in temporary camps near the northern French port of Calais for a third night running. Riot police used tear gas and water cannon to end an hour-long stand-off with the refugees, who started by throwing objects and insults at officers before lighting a wooden pallet on fire.[/quote] [url]http://www.skynews.com.au/news/world/europe/2015/11/11/french-police-clash-with-refugees-at-calais.html[/url]
Pour a concrete wall around them.
[QUOTE]An estimated 4500 people now live in makeshift camps outside Calais, from where they try to make their way to Britain by sneaking into trucks or storming the Eurotunnel rail link to London. France has stepped up security after violence broke out this week, prompting refugees to resort to disrupting traffic on the Calais ring-road.[/QUOTE] They've already escaped political persecution or tragedy. Seems strange to call them refugees at this point. From what I understand they're already allowed to stay in France and are treated well.

Played this game once called Distant Worlds where eventually this race of aliens appeared claiming to be refugees appeared in the galaxy, so I was like OK sure whatever. They colonized some undesirable planets in the galaxy... and kept on growing and growing, outpacing all the other civilizations and nearly myself. Their economy was impressive, and military might immense. Then they declared to the galaxy who they really were - and we were plunged into a galactic war.
