No Limit to Migrant Mega-Dinghies, Say French
11th August 2026
France’s lifeboat service has warned there is “no limit” to the number of migrants people smugglers will put on a boat to Britain.
And of course the French aren’t doing a damned thing about it.
The French national sea rescue service (SNSM), equivalent to the RNLI, warned it was seeing “more and more” large boats ferrying hundreds of migrants across the Channel.
On Monday morning, a record 230 asylum seekers arrived in Britain after travelling on a single 15-metre-long (49ft) vessel from near Berck-sur-Mer, Normandy.
This is essentially an act of war. Why is Britain not holding France to account for this?
