Barrister Alleges Government Created “Hostile Environment” For Refugees In UK

The Home Secretary said the Government “must and will do more” after a migrant died and another was left in a critical condition when a boat sank in the English Channel.

More than 60 people were on board a boat as it began to deflate around 8km (five miles) off the northern coast of France in the early hours of Friday morning, the French coastguard said.

Barrister Dr S Chevlan tells TalkTV’s Vanessa Feltz that the majority of those arriving in the UK are ‘genuine refugees’ and that the Government must provide ‘safe routes’ for their arrival.

Vanessa argues that the UK’s public infrastructure is already at capacity and that it cannot sustain more people.
