Daily Mail: Albanian gangs "offer" for the holidays, £5,000 for passage to England

Illegal immigration of Albanian immigrants to Great Britain continues to be a problem.

Many young Albanians risk their lives to go to the United Kingdom, where they then end up on the wrong path, becoming part of drug-trafficking gangs.

Rishi Sunak's government has pledged to stop the phenomenon of illegal crossing through dinghies or trucks, but it seems as if so far, it has not achieved anything like that. This is what the British media Daily Mail writes in a recently published article where it emphasizes the 'offers' of Albanian human trafficking gangs, who for the end of the year holiday season, have offered reduced passage by dinghy to Great Britain.

They regard this as a mockery of the efforts of British ministers. According to the British media, now the passage with trucks is being offered for 5 thousand pounds, in exchange for the 8 thousand that are usually paid.

An Albanian ad on TikTok, with a picture of a Christmas tree in Covent Garden in Central London, promises asylum seekers trying to cross into the UK 100% success.

A senior Tory MP and former cabinet minister said the gangs are absolutely taking advantage of the chaos in government as they see no measures promised to them are working.

Gangs are increasingly focusing their advertising on offers to truck migrants to Britain, with one ad offering a deal to smuggle them in by plane for £14,000 per person.

Arrivals from Albania by dinghy have fallen since the British government designated it a "safe country", meaning Albanian citizens cannot apply for asylum in the UK after being turned back within days. But British MPs warned that the Home Office has turned its attention away from illegal lorry crossings.

This week Rishi Sunak faces the first parliamentary hurdle for his emergency bill to save the Rwanda scheme, which was dealt a blow last week after the minister responsible for it, Robert Jenrick, resigned, saying he would not it will work.
