This week a fire, caused by a turf war between Kurdish and Afghan people-smuggling gangs tore through the Dunkirk camp, which was run by the "charity" Doctors Without Borders. Some migrants were left with knife wounds — and 600 of them are missing.

When the Jungle was pulled down, Calais townsfolk sighed with relief. ‘We hoped it was a fresh start for our lovely city after years of having migrants here,’ said one high-ranking local politician this week. ‘But they are coming back because England is still the magnet and Calais is the set-off point.’

The Mail has discovered that hundreds of illegals are now in Calais. Every week more arrive with hopes of getting to Britain, as they sleep rough on scrubland just a stone’s throw from the former Jungle.

They are being helped to survive by myriad English and French charity workers who dole out sleeping bags, fresh clothes and free food — largesse that has sparked a political backlash in Calais.

Last month, mayor Natacha Bouchart passed a decree banning the ‘regular and persistent’ distribution of meals to migrants, saying it threatened the peace and security of local people.
