Last month Home Minister Priti Patel hailed a new £ 28 million deal with her French counterpart aimed at curbing the number of immigrants arriving in the UK on small boats.
But the deal hasn’t stopped people from reaching the shores of the UK. French authorities refuse to intercept immigrant ships heading to Britain once they are in the English Channel, despite the agreement.
More than 8,500 migrants were estimated to have successfully entered the country this year, up from 1,850 last year.
Last week, the Home Office failed to deport 23 serious criminals to Jamaica after last-minute legal challenges backed by Labor MPs and celebrities.

Five children, including this baby without socks or shoes, were among the migrants who landed on the Kent coast Monday morning in temperatures of 1 ° C.
A family of four was among the arrivals in Dover Monday in near-icy conditions after making the dangerous journey across the English Channel.
Last month, Ms. Patel detailed plans for new legislation that will make it easier for judges to expel foreign criminals.
His promise drew criticism from human rights lawyers and it is unclear how the new laws will align with existing human rights legislation enshrined in UK law through the Human Rights Act 1998.
Five children, including a baby without socks or shoes, were among the migrants who landed on the Kent coast Monday morning in temperatures of 1 ° C.
The children were seen being brought into the port of Dover aboard a single Border Force rib, along with several adults.
The youths were wrapped in warm blankets when they landed in Dover on Monday.
The youths (pictured) were visibly suffering from 1 ° C temperatures in Kent Harbor and were wrapped in blankets and life jackets.
It is believed that they were picked up in the Channel by Border Force cutter Vigilant after leaving France.
The youngsters, some too young to walk, were visibly suffering from 1 ° C temperatures in Kent Harbor and were wrapped in blankets and life jackets.
Among them was a baby who had no shoes or socks, being carried ashore in the arms of a woman.
Despite Ms Patel’s continued votes to make the route “ unworkable ”, there have been an unprecedented number of English Channel crossings by small boats in 2020.
