Mayors call for UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer to visit Calais migrant camps | BBC News


Mayors in Northern France have called on Keir Starmer to visit to better understand the impact of small boat crossings in the region.

In a message to the UK prime minister, the mayor of Ambleteuse, Stéphane Pinto, said co-operation between the two countries was "a must".

Home Office Minister Dame Angela Eagle said the UK government had "ramped up" its work with French authorities, revealing French police had stopped 28,000 small boat crossings last year.

Home Secretary Yvette Cooper was in Calais last week to meet politicians and officials, but Dame Angela declined to comment on whether the prime minister planned to accept the invitation.
