BBC World Service - BBC OS, UK-France summit: Migration

We have the latest from the Anglo-French summit in Paris

We have the latest from the Anglo-French summit in Paris.

It's been announced that Britain will increase its payments to France to stop illegal migration in boats across the Channel - including funding for a new detention centre to remove people from the French coast. It comes after the UK announced new legislation to reduce people arriving in small boats.

We have the latest from the summit and look at how the UK’s approach compares to migration policies elsewhere in Europe and in the US.

We talk about Kenya’s crackdown on what is being described as the infiltration of LGBTQ agenda in schools.

We hear about false and misleading social media videos circulating on social media about migrants from sub-Saharan Africa in Tunisia, amid a wave of anti-migrant sentiment in that country.
