'Businesses will start thinking about alternative routes to Calais'

Available for over a year

Incursions by "hundreds" of migrants into the Eurotunnel terminal in France have become a nightly occurrence, according to the cross-Channel rail operator. Businesses will start thinking about alternative routes to Calais, said Damian Green, Conservative MP for Ashford. More must be done to make the Eurotunnel secure, he said, even if it means government has to invest more money. Calais was secure and all was being done to stop migrants getting access, said Jean-Marc Puissesseau, president of the company which runs Calais. Eurotunnel said police were being called each night to remove migrants from its Coquelles base.
