I suppose hoteliers are between a rock and a hard place. After the covid shut down, the offer of, in some cases, one years full occupancy, is hard to turn down.
We need someone like the ex Australian PM Tony Abbott. He doled out hard measures against illegals. He expected, and got, flack from the left, but got the job done.

But I don't see the situation changing. Having more of our civil servants based in offices in France wont make a difference, neither will giving the French more money. Until we start sending them back to France, or the country in which they first arrived at in Europe, they'll continue to boat over here for 4 star accommodation. Like many other of the problems facing the nation, govt doesn't appear to have actionable plans in place

But it's not just this government that's at fault - somebody ('97 - '09) invited them!


Anyway, at this rate, at least one of us is going to get reported/arrested for hate speech lol lol  :rolleyes

Id go further back than that. Govts for several decades have failed to take longer term actions to safeguard the nations interests, of both parties
