Today we report from France where masked gangs are regularly breaking in to trucks and lorries heading for the UK, which have stopped at a motorway service station near Dunkirk and Calais.

The long overdue destruction of the Calais Jungle camp last year was hailed as a means of ending the migrant crisis but this newspapers investigation makes it clear that the hordes who are intent on coming to Britain have dispersed to an extent but have not really gone away.

The French authorities have not made sufficient efforts to end the epidemic of human trafficking which is leading to violence on a daily basis.

The desperation of the migrants who are intent on coming to Britain by any means is matched by the unscrupulousness and viciousness of the gangs of people smugglers.

Wearing hoods they lurk at the side of the road waiting for trucks to leave the motorway.

This will be the third summer plagued by chaos on the roads outside Calais.

Migrants are returning to the areas in ever increasing numbers. While France has a part to play Britain must also do more to ensure that weak borders are not an invitation to desperate migrants and wicked traffickers.

Only if the borders are strong will they be deterred.

The European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker says that Brussels will approach the negotiation for Britains withdrawal from the EU (which he persists in calling a failure and a tragedy) in a friendly way.

But that bill for 50billion? That still has to be paid he insists even though he doesnt want anyone to think its some sort of punishment.

Well, if thats what he calls friendly then one wouldnt care to see him when he was being actively hostile. This ludicrous, made-up figure of 50billion has been bounced around for months.

Britain has absolutely no obligation to stump up this kind of payment and would be perfectly in its rights to demand payment from Brussels instead to reflect our vast contribution to the EUs assets and coffers.

Remember to put your clocks, timers, etc, forward one hour this weekend.

We have so many gadgets these days that this twice-yearly task has become quite a business.

You will feel as though you get an hours less sleep but with the weather promising to be spring-like an early start may not be such a bad thing.
