but let s not get carried away here. the number of officers who are going to be patrolling is increasing but we are told it is going to be in the coming months, it is not immediately. it is going to take some time for that to happen. the stationing of border force officers, national crime agency officers in points in france is obviously welcome, but it is not exactly what the uk wanted. i think the uk wanted their own officers patrolling the coastline in france. the home office believes that the interception rate, if the interception of people smuggling gangs can reach 75%, it is going to destroy the business model that they run. we heard simonjones allude to that a little earlier. the interception rate this year is around 42%. how difficult is it going to be to get that up to somewhere in the region of 75%? it is a big challenge and it is interesting to hear the foreign secretary this morning and the home secretary not making any
28,500 for the entire year for 2021. it is normally good news about the times made a point that britain and france will announce a shared multi million security pact to stem these record numbers. if you go into these record numbers. if you go into the detail it looks like the uk will be spending £17,000,000, an increase of about 16 million on the current deal, so they will be giving our french friends more money to hopefully stop these small boat crisis. is going to be announced by the home secretary and fluent french speaker suella botman in paris tomorrow. that will give her some working respite because suella braverman. she s been in the news for the wrong reasons. essentially what the british want the french to do is to increase the interception rate around 70%. it was around 50% but that is fallen now to 42%. i
