Migrant crisis: Shabana Mahmood’s crackdown watered down AGAIN as nearly 1,000 cross Channel in 48 hours

In the video, a balaclava-clad individual can be seen fighting off migrants in the water as they desperately attempted to climb on board the vessel, with several people appearing to have been punched and slapped in the scuffle.

So far today, 118 migrants arrived have arrived in Britain, with a Border Force Ranger vessel collecting 38 in the early hours of the morning.

The disturbing scenes come on the same day it emerged Ms Mahmood’s changes to Britain’s migration system are set to be watered down amid a brewing rebellion from the backbenches.

Under the Home Secretary’s proposals, the wait for migrants to obtain permanent residency would double from five to 10 years.
