ER Editor: Around the last week of May, Nigel Farage went out into the English Channel to get raw footage of illegal migrants coming over to the UK from France, apparently with the ‘encouragement’ of French forces. He posted this Twitter link on May 21 (see here) and from around that time, he’s posted many other videos and articles on the same phenomenon. They’re worth checking out. Below is a 10-minute video of one of his earlier Channel forays. This gives context to the Migration Watch UK report published below.

The video is worth watching to the end because Farage and his crew are actually threatened if they film the handover of migrants from the French navy onto UK craft.

MW UK’s report below, fully referenced and broken down into statistics, has one take-away idea: the number of illegal migrants entering the UK from France via Channel crossings is increasing. For 2020, up to early June, 1,940 people have entered in this manner – and presumably those are only the ones we know about. At ER we believe all these numbers are lowballed figures, but they are all we have to go on as no official figures are kept. Compare that 1,940 figure to the whole of 2019 – 1,892.

Brexit? What Brexit! Secure borders? …
