SIR Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron have agreed a plan to send back small-boats migrants, with an asylum seeker being sent to the UK in exchange.
-
The Prime Minister said the scheme would help 'finally turn the tables' on the migrant crisis in the English Channel.
Under the pilot scheme, people arriving on a small boat can be detained and returned to France for the first time.
The Prime Minister set out the plan yesterday at the conclusion of Mr Macron’s three-day state visit to the UK. At a joint press conference with Mr Macron, he said: “There is no silver bullet here, but with a united effort, new tactics and a new level of intent, we can finally turn the tables.”
Under the ‘groundbreaking’ scheme, migrants arriving via small boats will be detained and returned to France.
