Turn boats back to France Rees Mogg supports pushbacks of migrants, praises Australia model

Britain s Commons leader Jacob ReesMogg has expressed his support for pushbacks of migrants who have crossed the Channel. France lashed out at British blackmail today and warned UK s Priti Patel against pushing back overloaded migrant boats in the Channel. Amid growing alarm at the scale of the problem, the Home Secretary has ordered officials to reinterpret maritime laws so boats can be turned around as they try to cross the Channel.
