The Marine Traffic app is an essential download for all those who scan the Dover shoreline for signs of small boats everyone from officials in the home secretary's office to self-styled migrant hunters who prowl the Kent coast.

The view from Dover 'There should be ways for the genuine ones to come'

Yesterday the app was not showing any light blue ship icons in the middle of the Channel, indicating dinghy-related activity from UK Border Force cutters or French navy ships. The sky was heavy, snow was forecast, the temperature was barely above zero and the sea was choppy.

After a week with no crossings, 197 people crossed on Monday in five boats. Plans unveiled by the home secretary, Suella Braverman, yesterday to detain people on arrival without access to bail or judicial review and initiating discussions in Strasbourg about use of the European court of human rights powers - will, according to her, stop the boats.

Braverman's speech was scant on detail and was greeted with scepticism by some Dover residents who have seen many asylum seekers arrive after being picked up in the Channel by Border Force and taken for processing.
