A migration deal between UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron has been established to address the small boats crisis. This agreement allows for the return of around 50 illegal migrants to France each week, in exchange for asylum seekers held there. This initiative is part of Starmer's commitment to dismantle human trafficking networks and control illegal migration. However, critics argue that the deal lacks the necessary strength to tackle the ongoing crisis adequately.
Sir Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron announced a groundbreaking migration deal aimed at addressing the small boats crisis, facilitating the return of illegal migrants to France.
The agreement allows for roughly 50 migrants arriving illegally in the UK each week to be sent back to France in exchange for asylum seekers.
This deal represents a personal victory for Sir Keir Starmer, as he aims to dismantle the human trafficking networks responsible for illegal migration.
Critics, including Nigel Farage, argue that the deal falls short of what is needed to effectively combat the ongoing crisis of illegal migration.
