Keir Starmer's plans to clamp down on migrants crossing the Channel have reportedly been halted due to French police refusing to stop the boats.
Police unions are blocking an agreement to intercept the dinghies, arguing officers could be prosecuted if their interventions lead to deaths.
Zoe Gardner tells LBC this 'warning should be taken seriously' by the UK and that it shoudl reconsider developing safe and legal passages for migrants.
President Macron agreed in July to allow police to intervene to stop boats in shallow waters after months of negotiations.
However, the agreement fell short of UK demands for French police to intercept boats up to 300 metres from the shore.
The scope of police action remains limited because they are only allowed to intercept boats before they pick up migrants.
