''A second group of cocklers have been rescued from a sand bank in Morecambe Bay, just days after 19 Chinese cocklers died.''


. . . some people never learn.

Morecambe Bay must be one of the most scariest places there is, you are always hearing of people drowning on there, people who have gone out a few miles and then got caught by the tide

Too right, some people never learn

There's the family of a deceased cockle picker trying to claim compo off our government when they were in our country illegally anyway! *scowls*

I do feel sorry for them, we have been studying them in our sociology class and apparently they've had about 40 of them living in one terraced house! :o

Who says they were here illegally?

I mean maybe some were, maybe not

They could have been bona fide immigrants

The bird on the lunchtime news did.

It amazes me, that hours after a tragedy there are jokes going round via text and email.

I was gonna put one here, but though better of it.:thumbsup:

Oh well, in that case, if she has been able to find out who they were and then get the low-down on their immigration status, perhaps she can share that information with the special commission that has been set up by the coroner

Because the authorities dont know who half of them are yet, never mind having got their files out
