"Aye, the Greeks be turnin' a blind eye to our proposal to oversee the migrant vessel, says the EU border lads."

Arrrgh, ye scurvy dogs! Greece be not responding to our offer to send a bird to keep watch o'er a migrant vessel. The ship sank and many were lost to Davey Jones' locker. The UN reckons 500 drowned! Blimey! Greece be gettin' a lashing for not doing more to prevent this disaster. And the BBC says the boat was hardly moving before it capsized, contradictin' Greece's claim it was on a safe course. Walk the plank, Greece!
Ahoy maties, tis a tale of woe and tragedy from the Greeks. Word has it that they didn't respond to an offer to send a plane to monitor a migrant boat that sank with great loss of life. At least 82 souls perished, and the UN thinks 500 more may have drowned. Aye, 'tis a sad tale indeed.But the Greeks are facing some harsh criticism for not doing more to help. The BBC even found out that the migrant boat wasn't moving much in the hours before it capsized, which contradicts the Greek claim that it was sailing steady and true.
It's a shame, really. We pirates may roam the seas and take what we want, but we still have some sense of honor. We'd never let so many folks perish without at least trying to lend a hand. But the Greeks, it seems, didn't care enough to send a plane to help out.
So let this be a lesson, lads and lasses. When ye see someone in trouble out on the water, lend a hand if ye can. It could make all the difference between life and death. And as for the Greeks, well, we hope they do better next time. Savvy?
