French police fail to stop migrants from heading for Britain

French police will receive £175 million pounds of UK taxpayers' money to reduce the number of dangerous channel crossings by illegal migrants.

But according to the latest record-breaking figures, it appears French police are doing little to stop illegal migrants from setting off for Britain.

ITV News reporter Peter Smith watched as a large rubber dinghy, bobbing off the coast, continued to return to the Dunkirk shore in Northern France to pick up more migrants, while French Police failed to stop them.

Farage: Reform UK enjoyed PM's 'island of migrants' speech

Nigel Farage says Reform UK "very much enjoyed" Sir Keir Starmer's remarks on immigration and an 'island of migrants', which critics have likened to Enoch Powell's 'Rivers of Blood' speech in 1968. Reform's party leader urges the prime minister to declare the situation in the English Channel as a national security emergency. Starmer replies that the government's borders bill will allow law enforcement to take action "before crimes are committed", adding it is "extraordinary" that Farage "of all people, voted against it".
