In the last few minutes, we have been told that the search has been called off by the french authorities. Simonjones reports from dover. The sea has claimed several more lives. The french lifeboat had the grim task of bringing five bodies back to shore, a sixth person airlifted to hospital didnt survive.

The french Authorities Say they will only intervene at sea if a boat gets into difficulty. The mp for dover
