Excellent article. One fact stands out: "This is not mentioned by the British popular media or the Government but the number of migrants reaching Britain — mostly from France — is not increasing. The opposite is true. 1/4 unherd.com/2021/11/the-ca…
There were 80,000 in 2002. That fell to 18,000 in 2010. There were 29,000 in 2020, after the boat traffic began.
Mainly due to the French efforts.

"France has, in effect, been protecting Britain from even a small amount of migration at Britain’s request. If Paris now chose to end that policy - to repudiate the Treaty of Le Touquet as many French politicians are demanding -
Britain would face the full force of Europe’s wider migration crisis for the first time."
