CAMPAIGNERS urged the government today to “end the deaths now” by “finding humanity” and introducing safe routes for migrants after a baby died in the English Channel.
The child was found unconscious after a boat got into difficulty off the French coast of Wissant in the Pas-de-Calais region on Thursday evening and was later declared dead.
The French maritime prefecture for the English Channel and the North Sea said another 65 migrants were rescued.
A society that grows accustomed to ‘undesirable’ people also grows accustomed to undesirable deaths. Minneapolis serves as a wake-up call, including for our own refugee policies, writes MARC VANDEPITTE
Listening to our own communities and organising within them holds the key to stopping the advance of Reform UK and other far-right initiatives, posits TONY CONWAY
