Desperate

 Migrants say they are being driven to attempt Channel crossings by increased aggression from French police – funded by Britain – who force them to move on from their camps every 48 hours. Refugees living in makeshift camps in Dunkirk said police were dispersing them every two days, and that every 10-12 weeks police in riot gear destroy their whole camp.

Read about it in the Independent

One Afghan refugee told The Independent how the constant destruction by police of camps was making him and others increasingly desperate to reach the UK. Every few weeks the police are coming and destroying our tents and blankets everything, and then we just have nothing in the rain.

Is this true?
