A great deal of the evil of this tragedy comes from the action of smugglers and my friend Gael Lewis writes:
Last shift. Fewer boats so time to chat with a dignified and delightful Afghan family as I changed their men's' sodden clothing. It took them 4 hours to do the crossing this morning (normally 90 Mins) because the smugglers didn't put enough fuel in their teeny outboard. So another ramshackle wobbly inflatable overloaded with petrified refugees (you must have seen them on telly) came by and shared fuel. And we complain when our train is 5mins late.
Pleez! Let's put these people on proper ferries or help them fix their broken countries instead of faffing about.
A Facebook report by Sirius is even more alarming
