UK and France Agree to Send Migrants Arriving in Britain by Boat Back to France

As the U.K. government faces criticism for losing control of its borders, it has reached an agreement with France to tackle the issue of migrants arriving in Britain by boat. This pilot plan will see some migrants being sent back to France instead of being allowed to enter the U.K. through the English Channel. The plan aims to deter illegal immigration and reduce the strain on the U.K.'s immigration system. This decision comes after a record number of migrants crossed the Channel in small boats in 2020. The U.K. Prime Minister has faced pressure to take action and this agreement is a step towards addressing the issue.

The Current Situation

In 2020, more than 8,400 migrants crossed the English Channel in small boats, with the majority being from war-torn countries like Syria, Iraq, and Sudan
