GB News host Patrick Christys claims French authorities are "under orders not to stop the boats" as illegal migrant crossings surge and Britain faces a worsening border crisis. “In the last two days a French naval ship has fired warning shots at a democratically elected British politician in the Channel, a new illegal migrant route has opened up … 16 hundred illegals have crossed in the last week,” Mr Christys told News24 host Andrew Bolt. “Now the French police are saying that they’re under orders not to stop the boats, despite British taxpayers giving them one billion pounds worth of our money to stop them. “You also saw those charity workers there; they seem to almost all be women, which I think is the definition of suicidal empathy. “These illegal migrants and the human traffickers they’re not stupid; they know that there is a new prime minister, they know that he is soft.”
