Letter to the I: Calais Border Issue

In answer to Paul Cross's letter, if Macron had taken lessons off of Trump he would be charging the refugees for the Calais border posts, not the UK.  The current border arrangement is due to the Le Touque Treaty between the UK and France, which is only valid if both parties consent to it.  Short of rebuilding the Angevin Empire in Normandy there is very little we can do if the French Government does not want to continue with this arrangement.  Instead of complaining about Macron's tough stance on this issue we should be matching him with shrewd diplomacy and ideas.
