Tory MP Andrew Rosindell announces he has written to the Home Secretary, Priti Patel, to ‘express dismay’ at the ‘levels of illegal crossings’ taking place in the Channel. French police stopped around 100 migrants attempting to cross to the UK yesterday, with over 1,100 being arrested in the country in the first quarter of this year, adding to a total of 157 being picked up from the Channel. Speaking on Thursday, Mr Coker told Sky News: ‘Unfortunately what you’ve seen today is very typical right now. ‘It’s happening more and more on days like this, when the weather is calm.’
