Migrants Attempt to Storm Chunnel

The Daily Mail reports:
Around 4,000 people have stormed fences and desperately tried to clamber on trains bound for Kent in the past three days - a deadly gamble that has allowed at least 150 to get to Britain but also claimed the lives of nine people. 
Migrants have said that watching their friends die will not stop them trying to get to the UK with one saying: 'It's England or death'. 
Today French police said an Egyptian man is in a critical condition after being electrocuted when he tried to climb on to the roof of a Eurostar train in Paris, suggesting migrants may be now trying to get through the tunnel away from Calais.

Last night migrants were still easily breaching the 15 mile fence surrounding the Channel Tunnel as senior MPs, backed by hauliers, demanded the British Army should be sent in to restore order because the French authorities had 'lost control'.
"It's England or death." England must have really good welfare benefits.
