"They Should Be SENT BACK!" | Reform UK's Former Deputy Leader Ben Habib On Asylum Applications

Nearly 1,500 migrants have arrived in the UK after a busy week of crossings in the English Channel, figures show.

Some 1,499 people made the journey in 27 boats from July 15 to 21, while the French coastguard confirmed two people died amid rescue operations off the northern French coast.

The maritime prefecture also said on Sunday that a further 71 migrants were saved in the Channel, but some travellers on the boat who were not requesting assistance were allowed to continue the journey.

They said this decision was made given the risk of “falling overboard or of injury to people in the event of forced intervention”.

Former Reform UK deputy leader Ben Habib accuses Labour of wanting to legalise illegal migration "through the back door".
