Shortly after it left a beach just to the west of calais it started taking on water. It overturned. Some of the occupants did manage to call the Emergency Services and a Rescue Operation was launched. Sadly, five people didnt make it. They lost their lives. Their bodies were found a little later a short distance away by a tugboat patrolling the coastline. As you mentioned, the governments Rwanda Plan is due to go before parliament again this week. The idea behind that plan is to act as a deterrent, putting migrants off from trying to cross the channel. The hope is, the government says at least, that it will do that by sending some Asylum Seekers to East Africa to have their claims processed there. Lord cameron, david cameron, the foreign secretary, he says that plan would be
Can he explain to seafarers how dropping bombs will lead to a De Escalation of a situation which is already endangering their safety . Prime minister. Mr speaker, it is quite extraordinary. It is houthi rockets that are endangering the lives of the seafarers in the region. So many of the goods we rely on take this route, the Red Sea and the Suez Canal after yet another attack today, big implications. An escalating conflict, the impact on the World Economy and what would provoke the uk to strike the houthis again. It was a Big Day for the prime minister, and he s got a lot on his Hands Tomorrow too . He has, yes, because it is the return of his rwanda plan, the idea you might remember to send some Asylum Seekers to rwanda. Labour and other Opposition Parties think the plan is ridiculous. But there is a

although that s still the second highest annual number of crossings on record. it s hard to know how many migrants have died in recent years trying to cross the world s busiest shipping lane, but one charity said the figure was likely to be more than 20 last year alone. people are still going to take these dangerousjourneys, and the enforcement activity by border force and police on the french side is simply going to force more people into more unseaworthy, unstable, dangerous boats, and the likelihood of more people losing their lives, i think, is not going to diminish. the government says the solution is forcibly removing unauthorised arrivals and sending them to rwanda. there ll be a crucial parliamentary vote on the plan later this week. it breaks my heart to hear about it, but itjust shows we ve got to stop the boats, we ve got to stop this illegal trade in human beings. but labour say the rwanda plan is a gimmick instead, they re calling for international cooperation to deal wi
but it s not exclusive to voters in the red wall. conservative voters all over the country care quite strongly about it. i suppose, in that context, because we were talking to robert about the rwanda plan, it s whether the government, in pursuing the rwanda plan and then the conversation that s going on within the conservative party about how you make it work and what kind of flavour of the rwanda plan you should have, is whether kind of pursuing it and trying to make it work addresses the concerns of those 2019 conservative voters, or rather highlights the kind of failure to deal with the problem as they would see it around the whole question of illegal migration. yeah, i mean, ithought robert jenrick actually made some pretty compelling arguments. if you take this issue kind of almost in the abstract i and just say, you know, - some of the lines he came out with were challenging, you know, you can t be squeamish about this issue. it matters to people. countries that take a tough l
