BREAKING: The “16-year-old boy” who drowned off the Calais coast yesterday was actually a 28-year-old man named Abdulfatah Hamdallah

Sudanese migrant who drowned trying to reach UK named independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
His fellow traveller, who survived, lied about his mate’s age. They also stole their boat from a shop

They were not “desperate children”. Yet the media/MPs lapped this up & attacked @pritipatel based solely on an illegal immigrat’s fake testimony 🤷🏼‍♂️
Also, French politician Pierre Henri Dumont - who claimed this showed the U.K. didn’t have “an ounce of humanity” - might want to look into claims that Abdulfatah Hamdallah had already applied for asylum in France...
This tragic story is all that’s wrong about our immigration “debate”. Basic fact checks are out the window as the media & politicians are so keen to “prove” the U.K. is heartless & uncaring. These sorry souls are being used as political footballs. It’s so tawdry
