Today, we publish a major report, Deadly Crossings and the Militarisation of Britain’s Borders.
This transnational collaboration between the IRR, the Permanent People’s Tribunal (PPT) London steering group and French group Gisti is the first English-language analysis of the nearly 300 known border-related deaths in and around the English Channel since 1999.
You can read more about the report and download it direct from our website here
