"Illegal" Immigration in France

Below is a link to an article (by North Devon Journal) written earlier this month about Britain's fear over a quadrupled number of "illegal" immigrants coming in from the Calais, Northern France Border. A camp set up in Calais is estimated to have about 1500 people. France is giving these residents the opportunity to apply for asylum or be repatriated.

According to information from the Associated Press and Telegraph, both France and Britain are looking toward working together for a solution. Bernard Cazeneuve, France's interior minister, told the BBC when asked if he believed British police should be sent to Calais: "It would be very useful to have more policemen here and we try to find a way of being in a common system here concerning police, in order to explain to all the immigrants in Calais that it's impossible to cross the Channel.”
