It started from Port-en-Bessin, north of Bayeux in Normandy, just before 10am on Monday, and the occupants arrived in Kent after midnight following reports they had been bound for...
In 86, pausing in Mechelen, ending up in Glasgow.
And I’d have thought Dieppe a very reasonable port on that case.
Héloïse Longuet said her 19th-century family farmhouse on the English Channel coast near Neufchâtel-Hardelot, south of Boulogne-sur-Mer, is surrounded by young men.
Yes, it’s a one-off (I hope*) and normally we do Caen Portsmouth which has the benefit of avoiding the M25. *My wife’s inheritance is getting quite messy and going legal so I see a...
A boat carrying 140 asylum seekers set off from the Baie de Seine in Normandy, around 300 miles from Calais, suggesting smugglers are opening new migrant routes to the UK.

The historic naval port set to become the migrant processing capital of Britain
A couple of years ago we went to Scotland (Inverness) using the Amsterdam - Newcastle ferry. We had a great time, really good food and entertainment overnight and a realtively easy...

Major General Duncan Capps, the Home Office’s border security commander, said there are now almost 3,800 people in French camps waiting to make the Channel crossing
