The Daily T: ‘It’s Outrageous!’: Nigel Farage on Starmer’s ‘Crazy’ Migrant Deal with Macron

GREATER LONDON, ENGLAND, JUL 10 – The pilot scheme aims to deter Channel crossings by returning about 50 illegal migrants weekly to France while allowing genuine asylum seekers legal entry, officials said.

  • On Friday, Sir Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron announced a pilot scheme to return around 50 migrants weekly, just hours after hundreds crossed the Channel.
  • After Brexit, the UK lost access to the EU-wide returns framework, prompting years of negotiations with France to establish a new migrant returns scheme, which remains limited in scope.
  • Over 21,000 migrants crossed the Channel this year; the scheme plans to return only 2,600, leaving 94% in the UK, limiting its impact.
  • Nigel Farage condemned the deal as a 'humiliation for Brexit Britain' and called for turning back every Channel boat, with no exceptions.
  • The pilot scheme launches in weeks, targeting first-time illegal entrants, supported by a new Deportation Bill to ensure swift removals and enhance border enforcement.
