The RNLI is having to delay other rescue work because of the number of migrants it is now picking up in the Channel, it was claimed today.
It came as some supporters stopped giving cash because lifeboats are heading into French waters to pick up migrants and the charity has been spending millions of pounds abroad including buying burkinis for children in Africa and funding nursery places in Bangladesh.
Some withdrawing their support even compared it to the left-leaning National Trust, where irate members campaigned to oust its ‘worthless wokes’ leadership team after a series of controversial policies.
Britain’s lifeboat service has been accused of becoming a ‘taxi service for people traffickers’ after it was revealed teams were going into French waters to pick up refugees in dinghies.
One lifeboat expert working regularly in the Channel told MailOnline today: ‘I’ve had a few RNLI crew tell me about them refusing to help boaters as they are too busy carrying people ashore’. The RNLI has been asked to comment.
It came at a time when the number of lives lost in British water during the recent heatwave hit 13, including several children.
The RNLI, founded in 1824, has been accused of becoming obsessed with political correctness in recent years, leading to resignations among volunteers. Parallels have also been drawn with the National Trust, where members successfully plotted to oust the charity’s chairman over his ‘woke’ agenda.
Britain’s lifeboat service sends around two per cent of all donations outside of the UK on a wide number of projects in Africa and Asia including buying burkinis for Muslim women in Africa and setting up creches in south Asia.
In 2019 the RNLI brought in Dr Philip Goodwin, a green charity boss, to drive the British charity’s work abroad saying their initiatives and money will target the world’s poorest countries because they account for 90% of drowning deaths.
The RNLI declined to comment on accusations they were acting as a ‘taxi service’, and denied that their recent Twitter campaign defending their migrants policy was to raise cash.

ALL AFRICA CHARITY WAS IDIOTY
FROM THE BEGINNING SINCE
COLONIALISM !
european idioty .
Self-hating Whites (to adapt a slightly-inaccurate Jewish term) are destroying their own people instead of just themselves’ whom they would have a right to kill. White women especially, have their maternal instincts stolen from their potential children and applied to these other “helpless” (but predatory) beings.
white sheeple nursing wolfes .
never happens in nature !
It was revealed some years ago that the RNLI sends staff on luxury junkets around the world to ‘help train’ people in other countries.
There was the ‘coffee mug’ scandal in which several crewmen were sacked for having coffee mugs deemed offensive by feminists (it also being revealed that there is a whole clutch of these creatures on £40,000 a year whose sole job is to ‘inspect’ lifeboat stations).
It was also revealed that the RNLI is giving away perfectly good lifeboats to totalitarian regimes (who no doubt immediately turn them into naval vessels. Assuming that el Presidente doesn’t use them for drug running of course).
With the government paying them to ignore people in genuine distress and instead bring illegals into the country, they don’t need our money any more.
I always believed the RNLI to be a worthwhile organisation, depending on the people’s generosity for it’s survival and rescuing those in trouble at sea.
If this is no longer the case, people need to stop donating to them. Let the navy do zog’s dirty work.
TTS: They AIN’T arctic terns! nor ‘migrants’! They’re Illegal Immigrants!
Why are you guys bowing to the PC ‘migrant’ BS???!!!
R/C/
It is a traitorous act to help illegal migrants ashore
Why does not RNLI escort them back to France?
