Three migrant dinghies left from just one French beach alone this morning – in defiance of riot police and Labour's new migrant returns deal.
Yesterday Keir Starmer's much-trumpeted one-in, one-out 'deterrent' policy came into force.
But it appeared to be having no effect this morning.
In astonishing scenes demonstrating the scale of migrant departures to England, four separate groups of migrants ran on to the sweeping sands at Gravelines, near Calais, just after 7am.
The groups were mainly men, but also included women, with one carrying a little boy sucking on a blue dummy. Another man carried a child on his shoulders as he waded into the waters.
