Early Edition with Kate Hawkesby

At least five are dead only hours after the passing of the UK’s controversial migrant deportation bill.  Approximately 100 migrants were rescued while crossing the English Channel, placed abroad a French Navy ship to be taken to the port of Boulogne.  The approved bill aims to deter situations like this, deporting illegal immigrants to Rwanda as a deterrent to those seeking asylum.  UK Correspondent Gavin Grey told Mike Hosking that so far, some 52,000 people have been earmarked for deportation, Rwanda looking to take in only a few hundred.  He said that if the deterrent works, this will be good for the UK, however, there is a backlog and time is running out for Rishi Sunak.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
