It's a very visible reminder, both of the dangerous nature of those crossings, also of the blind indifference that human traffickers have for life on those boats... I'm pleased with the work that we're doing with France. That's reduced 46,000 preventions already this year. We are seeing some positive steps forward... but we've got to keep doing that work to dissuade people from making those dangerous crossings, and that's what we're doing.
