#Stefano_Liberti parle notamment de l’#externalisation de la politique migratoire anglaise... c’est Londres qui contrôle Calais, dit Liberti.

Il souligne aussi que ce qui est nouveau à Calais est le fait qu’une bonne partie de migrants ont maintenant des papiers délivrés par d’autres pays (Italie, France, etc.). Ils ne sont pas sans papiers. Mais ils veulent aller en Angleterre car il y a pour eux de meilleures possibilités de travail (aussi car beaucoup d’entre eux parlent anglais).

Des images aériennes montrent l’étendue de la « jungle » de Calais

Tournées le 29 juillet, ces images aériennes montrent l’ampleur de la zone où s’entassent les migrants, à Calais. Baptisée la « jungle », elle abrite ceux qui essaient de passer chaque jour de l’autre côté de la Manche. Dans la nuit du 28 au 29, plus de 2 300 tentatives d’intrusion sur le site d’Eurotunnel ont été recensées. Un migrant a été retrouvé mort. Le ministère de l’intérieur français a annoncé un renforcement des effectifs avec l’arrivée de 120 policiers supplémentaires. Du côté britannique, la situation entraîne une interminable file de camions en attente de pouvoir traverser la Manche.

This Is The Story Of The Migrants In Calais

Migrants in Calais have been painted by the tabloid press as a menacing group who are breaking into lorries and causing traffic jams. Meanwhile, the town’s mayor has said it can’t cope with the numbers. But who are they, where have they come from, and why did they leave their homelands? BuzzFeed News travelled to Calais to find out.

We Asked an Expert How to Solve the Calais Migrant Crisis

As the migrant crisis unfolds in Calais, the human cost is rising. At least 11 migrants have died since the beginning of June in attempts to cross the border, including an Eritrean baby who died one hour after birth. On Saturday night, an estimated 200 migrants broke down security fences, and the French riot police reacted by spraying them with a chemical irritant, reported by Al Jazeera to be tear gas.

Calais. “On oublie que nous sommes des êtres humains”

“La bataille de Calais”, titre New Statesman cette semaine. Le journaliste Owen Jones, aussi chroniqueur du Guardian, s’est rendu dans la “jungle” de Calais, où de nombreuses personnes tentent tous les jours de grimper dans des camions, des trains ou des bateaux afin d’atteindre la Grande-Bretagne et d’y demander l’asile.
