French fishermen disrupt cross-Channel traffic in protest at the post-Brexit fishing rights granted by Britain.

The English Channel will become a graveyard for more migrants, charities say.

The UK and France blame each other for the deaths of 27 migrants who drowned while trying to cross the Channel in an inflatable dinghy to reach Britain.

Despite the UK government’s repetitive promises to make such crossings “unviable,” more than 25,000 people have made the perilous journeys through the Channel this year.

The French government says the British island of Jersey denies fishing licenses to dozens of French fishermen.

France has accused Britain of playing politics with post-Brexit fishing rights after London and the Channel Island of Jersey refused dozens of French fishing boats a licence to operate in their territorial waters.

French Secretary of State for European Affairs Clement Beaune says he is no longer patient with the UK over resolving post-Brexit fishing rights.

A cross-party group of British lawmakers say Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government has been holding asylum seekers and other migrants, including women with babies and children, in “shocking conditions” after they crossed the English Channel.

Home Secretary Priti Patel has come under fire for deciding to give the French a fresh tranche of money to supposedly tackle the growing problem of migrant Channel crossings at source.

The surge of migration across the English Channel continues to break new records prompting the government to resort to more and more desperate measures to stem the tide.
