Reading a #LeMondeDiplomatique article on illegal #immigration across the English Channel. How can they be amazed by this? These "traffickers", though often treating people bad and asking crazy prices, are providing a service with very high demand.

None of these migrants is there by force, they all want to cross and it's because they are not otherwise allowed to that they have to resort to these insane arrangements involving inflatable boats with dozens of people on them.
