Patrols off the coast of Gravelines in northern France on Wednesday saw people in the water, sparking a rescue operation aided by the British Border Force and RNLI.
The maritime prefecture said 59 people were brought on board the French ship PSP Cormoran, including an unconscious person who could not be resuscitated by the medical team.
A British vessel, the Border Force Ranger, also saved 13 people from the water, and both ships took the group of people to Calais.
Talk’s Dr David Bull speaks to immigration lawyer Harjap Singh.

It was the French who ordered the boat back.nothing to do with slippery starmer
-
Starmer & media properganda.
-
Rubbish! These 13 migrants were picked up by our Border Force within French waters, so this doesn't mark any change in our relationship with the French. Inaccurate headline and no win for Starmer.
-
Speak the truth .... They were taken back as their boat had sunk, only a few miles from the French coast and are well into French water's ... please get the facts right
-
Let’s get this right enough bs 😮the french called for help they were in french waters that’s why we took them back to France 🙄
-
Lies, lies and more lies🤣🤣🤣
-
I do not believe starmer has done this, coupled with disbelief of the whole situation
-
Money given to Africa should be payment for the acceptance of the boat migrants which is exactly what the Rwanda scheme was, which just demonstrates the stupidity of Starmer.
-
IT'S JUST A ONE-OFF
-
This Singh bloke hasn't got a clue he can't even get his numbers right a male Diane Abbot.
-
Oh for God’s sake the dinghy was sinking in FRENCH waters and the French asked for help to take the illegal immigrants back to France. This is not a win. And the correct idiom Mr Singh is “ The proof of the pudding is in the eating”. Not a very bright lawyer
-
One day publicity stunt? Watch them on a daily basis & other UK coastal locations. £500million already given to France. To little, to late.
-
Ttey shouldn't be coming here full stop.
-
So Le Pen would have said - ''There's England, off you go'' You mean like Macron has been doing for years?
-
Shame on talk tv for spewing incorewct info..
-
Stammer will never turn the boat back he wants them in Uk
-
What rubbish this lawyer's talking. We paid France (stupidly) and made a deal and the boats could have been turned back then.
-
LIES, LIES, LIES !!!
-
13 Migrants returned but they had not left French water. This looks like pure propaganda. I'll start to believe things are progressing when 1300 are sent back !
-
Just one word that proves the people who do not want these economic migrants, myself included and that word is…………. LEEDS
