Natacha Bouchart, the Mayor of Calais, is calling for the establishment of a ‘transport police’ and a dedicated ‘migration mission’ for local governments as the region grapples with increasing migrant fatalities. With at least 60 deaths recorded this year, Bouchart emphasizes the urgency of a meeting with the Interior Minister to address the ongoing crisis. She proposes improved support structures for migrants, including temporary accommodation for women and children, and holds the UK responsible for its immigration policies. Bouchart seeks concrete proposals ahead of the upcoming mayoral congress on November 19.
