Farage Asks ‘When is Enough, Enough?’: Another 1,600 Illegal Migrants Land in Britain in Two Days

 


 

Over 1,600 migrants aboard 38 small boats were intercepted from Sunday to Monday in the English Channel by British authorities, with Brexit leader Nigel Farage asking of the migrant crisis: “when is enough, enough?”.

 

A total of 1,065 migrants on 25 small boats were intercepted by British authorities on Sunday, with a further 360 migrants intercepted by French authorities and brought back to France from the Strait of Pas-de-Calais. On Monday, a further 539 migrants were found in the English Channel, according to UK Ministry of Defence figures on 13 small boats, making for 1,604 in all over two days.

 

One boat — which are typically large rubber inflatable craft — rescued by French authorities had as many as 68 migrants on board, the European Union-funded website InfoMigrants reports.

 

French maritime authorities later released a statement on Sunday’s operations, dealing with the three rescues of migrant boats, each containing at least three dozen people or more, and noted the difficult weather conditions in the Channel. Indeed, the weather in the Channel has been so bad this past week there were no migrant crossings at all on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
