The Crisis Room

One in, one out: is this really a solution to the migrant crisis?


Listen Later

'This can't go on' - that's what Keir Starmer and President Macron have said about the migrant crisis this week. But will their new 'one in, one out' deal make any real difference to stopping the boats? Amber also reveals what was said in government conversations about illegal migration during her time as Home Secretary - and which of her cabinet colleagues would privately ask her to make sure the overall migration numbers stayed high so their departments weren't adversely affected.

Plus: ID cards - an unacceptable intrusion into our right to privacy? Or a silver bullet in the battle with illegal immigration? Amber, Mark, and Marc discuss what difference ID cards could make - and whether the UK government can learn anything from President Trump's immigration crackdown in the US.

And the team ask whether there is any merit to Benjamin Netanyahu nominating Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize - and Mark explains what world leaders can learn from the Oslo Peace Process in the 1990s.
