Jersey Wants To Build A Bridge To France… But Why?
Why would anyone want to actively bring MORE French people into their country???
Not that Jersey

London and Paris are not the two bigest cities in Europe….
Interesting way to execute a sponsorship deal ?
pern
Why are you bouncing up-and-down? Are you having a seizure?
Toycat you gotta hit Montréal when you’re in Canada. It’s a great day trip from Ottawa. I will show you around.
FINALLY someone talked about the 'Ferry-free E39 project' in Norway. I partially did my A-level EPQ on this INSANE project and would love to send you my work so you can make a proper video on it because there still hasn't been a good detailed one on youtube about it.
Also I'm genuinely gutted you couldn't visit Israel, I was so excited for you to experience its uniqueness and complexity
And London is all the way South. Meh, whatever re capital cities.
To aid in the colonisation of cherbourg and caen ?
It should be said that the proposed bridge to France is very unpopular in Jersey right now and very few people outside of the government actually support it. People are far more interested in our hospital project being finished, which has taken 10 years and costed £1 billion so far (nothing has yet been built) or our government fixing the crippling housing crisis here and are less interested in headline grabbing vanity projects. Also, just because we are a “wealthy island” (we are not, we have almost the same mean income as the UK) that doesn’t mean we have a corresponding high tax revenue. You see, being a tax haven means we don’t see much of that tax money either.
And I don’t know how many times it needs to be said, but a geography channel should know that Jersey is NOT a part of the United Kingdom! We do not follow UK law and are not constitutionally a part of the UK, as recognised domestically and by the international community. Also the international/local market thing is from Guernsey, not Jersey! It is quite easy move to Jersey from the UK and buy property here.
That being said, there are a lot of people in Jersey who support closer links to France, just not like this. We are building closer connection to France recently in more practical (and less worthy of international headlines, apparently) ways to build mutual support. All of our energy already comes from France, which France illegally threatened to cut off a years ago during the fishing dispute some may remember. When the UK was having shortages of food goods, Jersey just imported Carrefour food from France to stock up our shop shelves. There has also been talks of opening a Carrefour on Jersey itself. As said in the video, we also have recently allowed French tourists to come over to Jersey on holiday for 3 days without showing their passports to by-pass the Brexit shitshow border mess plaguing Calais-Dover. We did attempt back in 2008 to switch to Central European Time in a referendum, but this was rejected 72%-28%, with only a 44% turnout.
If you think about it's kinda messed up. They want to become richer, which is understandable. But at the same time they want their garbage truck drivers and their cashiers to live somewhere else. I don't think that would be sustainable in the long run.
The bridge we really need is Canada to Greenland to Iceland to Scotland.
Jersey is an autonomous dependency of the United Kingdom, no need to overcomplicate it, it’s part of the UK.
I think an underground railway from France to guernsey via jersey would be the best option
Cheapo video, not extraordinary just zooming in and out of the map and a man screaming loud.
I can think of three "it makes sense to build a bridge here" in South America.
First one between Uruguay and Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, 45km long in a big but shallow estuary.
Manaos and the rest of Brazil through the Amazon river.
Continental Chile and the Island of Chiloe, 4-5km.
Why isn't there a bridge between Poland and Jersey? I think it would be beneficial for both territories
Jersey is not in the UK btw
why would anyone ever want to be connected to fr*nce?
Toycat destroyed Morocco, Israel and he's coming for the US
10:09 Hey! The train that literally crawls onto a ferry and floats across the gap to and from Sicilly is perfect just the way she is!
