Am heart brokenly sad at what happened in the English Channel yesterday. Utterly appalling!
Listening to the news this morning and was surprised to hear everyone blaming "people traffickers". We have people traffickers because people choose to pay them huge sums of money to do something that they know is illegal. These people are choosing to bypass the legal ways to get into the UK to get into tiny unseaworthy boats despite numerous drownings. France is perfectly safe as were any number of the EU countries passed through on the way to the English Channel.
Seriously what the hell is going on!
AND in other news... UK food bank usage is at a record high and people living in poverty is also on the way up.
