Why Are Channel Crossings Up?

Synopsis

The number of migrants crossing the Channel in a year hits 25,000 in record time. Is this proof that the smuggling gangs remain unsmashed? Or is too soon to say? Newsnight hears one fisherman’s eyewitness account at sea. Plus, Newsnight speaks to Sarah Shafi, the Masterchef contestant who wants the next series axed and has been edited out. With Adam Fleming.
