Former Tory justice minister Chris Philp has poked holes at Labour's new migrant returns deal after witnessing two 'massively packed' small boats entering UK waters while French officials 'made no attempt' to stop them.
Mr Philp, who now serves as shadow Home Secretary, today posted a series of videos taken aboard a chartered ship in the English Channel.
After seeing one migrant boat being 'shadowed' by a French warship and then another just ten minutes later, the incandescent politician said it showed the Anglo-French deal was a failure, adding that occupants of the boats were 'coming to a hotel near you soon'.
He said: 'On the very day Labour's flagship Channel deal was meant to kick in, I watched French ships escort illegal migrants straight into British waters.
'Labour's migrant surrender deal with France is in shambles and today has proven that it will have no deterrent effect whatsoever.'
