I think that we also have an advantage in that we have at least 23 miles of sea between us and the continent and we are not part of Shengen.  Having uncontrolled borders which extend close to areas with little local governance (or governance of any kind) is a recipe for disaster.

I think this is one of if not the final nail in the coffin for Shengen.

My cousin and her friends were in one of the bars, but thankfully, although in deep shock, they survived. Not sure if any have injuries yet. !!!
Its not the same when it affects you

You're not wrong... Hopefully all safe and well...

I totally agree Guffer. The shengen agreement that allows unrestricted movement throughout the EU was , as now shown, not a good idea. Without proper border controls how can countries be sure of who is entering their country and for what purpose. As you say, it could be the end of Shengen and is that not a bad thing at the moment in my opinion. It,s not as if it is easy to travel at the moment with all the security checks at ports/airports etc. Thoughts to all who have been affected by this barbaric act.

Apparently Whitehall have confirmed the Attackers have entered France from Syria.

Just remind me how many Syrian Migrants are in the EU and surrounding Countries now.

Trying times indeed.Condolences to the families of the victims.A brief step back and a considered response to this and other such attacks would I think reap better rewards than charging in all guns blazing-however satisfying that idea is!How the rest of the world can resolve the issue-and yes I do think it should concern the rest of the world-Is for greater minds than mine,if indeed a solution can be found.

The Greek government have confirmed that a Syrian passport found at the scene belongs to a person who passed through Lesbos as a refugee.  Who'd have thought it, eh?

Shocked and stunned, shocked and stunned that such a thing could ever have happened....

Was the writing not on the wall months ago.

Like many I just wish I knew what the answer to all this was, don't think this situation is going to go away.

How many Syrian refugees has Camoron and his chums agreed to take? Only takes a handful of radicalized ones to be a future threat.

This is only going to get worse as the percentage of the European Muslim population increases. To see the fate of European Christians read the UN report on ethnic cleansing / genocide of Christians in the Middle East since WWII, where many countries no longer have any Christians, to see our fate. The UK will take a bit longer than most European countries but by 2060 UK Christians will be a minority and our  fate will have been sealed.

The average European Christian family has 1.5 children which is less than the 2.3 replacement rate and the average muslim family is currently about 8 children, plus the European Ponzi welfare system means we must keep recruiting workers from abroad.

Welcome to 21st century realities. The problems are clear but I can offer no socially acceptable solutions. Don't make the mistake of thinking Islam is the same as other religions, where it's a total cradle to grave way of life and to be a good servant of God you do what the Imran's tell you.

We could all move to Russia.
