Fewer than 100 people who have cross the English Channel in small boats have been arrested for arriving illegally in the UK under a new power to deter them.

The figure represents 0.3% of those who have crossed since the law was changed.

Under the new law, anyone who arrives in the UK without proper permission or good reason commits a crime that can lead to up to four years in prison.

Emmanual Macron is demanding annual payments from Britain in order to tackle the small boats crisis.
The French President will demand further payments from the UK - on top of existing funding - to finance the policing of French beaches near Calais and Dunkirk.
The UK has paid France at least £232million in one-off payments since 2014, the latest of which was in November when Braverman agreed to a £62million deal with her French counterpart to increase patrols by 40 percent.

Plans to house 400 asylum seekers in tiny Welsh village of just 1,500 people are branded 'wholly unsuitable'
The proposals would see around 150 'predominantly male' refugees put up in a disused country house hotel, in Northop Hall, north Wales.
Another 250 would be housed in 'modular accommodation' in its grounds.

Almost 98 per cent of Albanians issued with deportation orders use legal tricks to try and stay in the UK.
Out of more than 1,000 Albanians who are subject to these orders in the UK, only 25 are recorded as having ‘no barrier’ to deportation.
Border Force sources say that around one third of the remaining migrants have claimed to be victims of modern slavery. A further quarter have claimed asylum under human rights laws.

The foster mother of an Afghan migrant jailed for raping a 12-year-old girl then deported has told him not to come back to Britain as he attempts to smuggle himself across the Channel on a boat.
After his deportation to Afghanistan, Kochai left his home country again and said he travelled through Iran, Pakistan and Turkey to make his way to France.
He had earlier been given the option to serve a longer prison sentence and stay in the UK, but took an option of leaving prison earlier and being deported.
