Migrant deal with France extended by two months as taxpayers cough up £16.2million while Labour negotiations continue

The UK's migrant deal with France has been extended by two months at the cost of £16.2million while Shabana Mahmood continues to negotiate terms for a new accord with Emmanuel Macron's Government.
French law enforcement, intelligence and military reservist officers will remain operational on the Calais coast as part of a push to track down people smugglers and thwart small boat crossings.
Contracts were extended by a further two months to enable Ms Mahmood to thrash out the terms of a new agreement.
