Hundreds of migrants have crossed the Channel this morning, far outnumbering the handful who could be returned to France under Sir Keir Starmer’s new “one in, one out” migrant deal with Emmanuel Macron.

As the French president arrived at No 10 for last-minute talks, The Telegraph watched boats packed with young men leaving Gravelines beach at dawn while French police stood by. Later, 74 men, a woman and three children were handed over to Border Force by the French Navy, who even asked for the migrants’ life jackets back.

Critics warn that returning around 50 migrants a week will do little to reduce crossings, raising questions over Labour’s Channel crisis strategy. Camilla and Gordon are joined by Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp to discuss why the deal is a disaster for Britain and how Starmer has lost control of the border.

Meanwhile, Reform UK is shaking up Westminster again. Nigel Farage was heckled at PMQs while raising concerns about illegal migration and ex-Tory MP Jake Berry has become the latest to defect to Reform. Our political correspondent Dom Penna joins us after speaking with Reform MP Lee Anderson on what the party’s rise means for the Conservatives.
