French police fail to stop migrants from heading for Britain

French police will receive £175 million pounds of UK taxpayers' money to reduce the number of dangerous channel crossings by illegal migrants.

But according to the latest record-breaking figures, it appears French police are doing little to stop illegal migrants from setting off for Britain.

ITV News reporter Peter Smith watched as a large rubber dinghy, bobbing off the coast, continued to return to the Dunkirk shore in Northern France to pick up more migrants, while French Police failed to stop them.
