In what was an avoidable tragedy, at least 27 people have died trying to reach the UK after their boat capsized in the English Channel. This is the deadliest day we have seen at in the Channel crossing and has lead to concerns over the Migrant crisis once again increasing.

In this video Tim Ross and Ben Walker answer the question has Brexit made the Migrant crisis worse?

“The vote to leave the European Union was many things, but perhaps above all it was a vote to control immigration.” With tensions between France and the UK rising after Boris Johnson’s letter to Emanuel Macron, the hopes of cooperation on this issue seem less realistic.

Now, the legacy of Brexit is making it harder to prevent an appalling human tragedy unfolding in the English Channel, as record numbers of people attempt the treacherous crossing in small boats in their search for a better life in the UK.

Just 3 spotlights...
1. if an UKaceptable agreement between France and UK would be reached, is it balanced or just single sided? (eg: France takes tham all back and British will controll Normandy beaches? )
2. If not single sided, can the French expect the UK to hold their share of the bargain longer than 6 month, without atemptings for renegotiations untill its the single sided version from "1."?
3. Well UK complains, but in absolut and in relative numbers, do they really already carry what France is carrying in this worldwide migrand issue?
....and that as a nation with a more invading history than many others,
... and taking in account that most - but not all - of this immigrands come from former British (not French) colonies.
