Deported criminals are among those returning to the United Kingdom by crossing the English Channel in small boats, an official report has revealed.
The report also raised concerns with the conditions migrants are being detained in, with the infrastructure available to accommodate them clearly not sufficient to cope with a Channel crisis that has consistently grown in its scale and severity since the Conservative Party government first declared boat crossings a “major incident” in 2018.
“People are arriving wet, sometimes with petrol burns. People are still having to occasionally spend a night in a tent without proper bedding,” Taylor, a former schoolteacher, told reporters. “I remain very concerned about the haphazard arrangements in place for those who have crossed the Channel in small boats,” he said.
“Promised facilities in Dover had not materialised when we inspected in November 2021, and we found that some families were sleeping on the floor in flimsy tents with inadequate bedding or crammed into facilities where some basic safeguards were not in place.
