Oh no, no, no. You made the accusation, you provide the evidence.

Accusation?

I asked if anybody had seen the video that Farage had made, probably should have said what he alleged said was happening.

As I cant prove it though, I assume you both have evidence to the contrary?

Things not worth defending...

1. The indefensible

I've run out of anything to add to the list

BBC with another question completely irrelevant to the coronavirus briefing.

Whats the point of asking questions that are relevant to this crisis. When the only answers they get from Johnson and his cabinet are lies and waffle. Something that Starmer is quickly realising during PMQs

Because it a coronavirus briefing, not question time.

You honestly think none of this is an accusation?

'Anybody see the Farage video of the French navy escorting boats of illegal immigrants into British waters?

How can they justify that? They are actively aiding criminals.'

Ticks a lot of the eye-bulging right's boxes - illegal immigrants, criminals, the EU (the French, no less). Give us the evidence that the video is what YOU say it is. Take responsibility for your utterance.

Have said twice that I do not have evidence other than the video, which may not show what it is purported to.

I assume you can prove that it is not showing what it says it is for you to be getting your knickers in such a twist?

Just send me a link to where either country has refuted the claim, they must have done it by now.

Or is it just the lefts usual stance to try and deflect away from an issue that they know they cannot defend?

I'll be honest, I got the sort of responses I expected and from the sort of posters I expected them from, no doubt there will be more to come.

Cant wait to hear what you all think the video is showing.

Show me how in any way that video shows what you claimed it did?

Any evidence whatsoever will do.

Another from Sky news.

Criminal Gangs all along the French and Belgian coast charging upwards of €6000 for a place on any floating vessel, Also being helped along by the French authorities in some circumstances, And whole heartedly helped by the British Border Force, Who give them free transport and passage to the UK, all immigrants are checked over sent to Yarleswood detention centre then let free as Covid-19 was rife in Yarleswood, Those who have or had Covid-19 were given medical support.

The British Government are complicit in facilitating illigal imigration and could be knowingly/unknowingly supporting terrorism, Either by the payment of monies to the Gangs or anyone of the immigrants being a Terrorist.

Nobody has any evidence of anything. I'm calling you out because you stated what it contained without proof. You may be right, you may not be right.

Nobody's deflecting. Just asking what you base your accusation on. It turns out to be nothing. Nothing at all. Quick to accuse.

What do you do with boatloads of people on tiny boats in the busiest shipping lane in the world?

Other than a video, showing naval looking vessels followed by dinghys.

That's a completely different video than the one offered up as proof of the viewpoint offered up.

I'm not even arguing that the Farage video wasn't genuine in what it was claimed to show, just that nothing in its content proved anything one way or the other.

Another separate video from Sky News is neither here nor there.

We must be talking about different videos. The one I saw on Farage's Twitter feed showed nothing of the sort. It showed a couple of naval vessels pointing in opposite directions and a close up of a dinghy.
