BREAKING: Man's body pulled from water in English Channel
A record number of people have attempted to cross the Channel in recent weeks, which authorities believe is due to fine weather after weeks of unsettled conditions.
Last week around 800 men, women and children were thought to have made the journey from France to the UK.Tim Naor Hilton, the chief executive of Refugee Action, said refugees feel there is ‘little choice’ other than to make the perilous journey in flimsy boats because the government refuses to open up alternative routes to safety.She has reportedly authorised sending back migrants in the Channel despite warnings from the French authorities that it could endanger lives.
Several newspapers reported this week that officials are to be taught how to use ‘pushback’ tactics to turn boats around under a plan to tackle rising migrant numbers.As of Sunday, the total number of people who have crossed the UK aboard small boats this year is more than 12,500, according to data from the PA news agency.
