The migrant crisis – why do people risk their lives?

By the end of October, almost 20,000 people had crossed the English Channel this year – more than double the total figure for 2020. But it’s not just journeys by sea that are dangerous. On the Sky News Daily podcast with Dermot Murnaghan, we revisit an episode we brought to you after 39 Vietnamese migrants were found dead in a refrigerated lorry in Essex. We are joined by Sky correspondents Siobhan Robbins and Martin Brunt along with Dr Tamsin Barber, a senior lecturer in sociology at Oxford Brookes University.Daily podcast team:Senior podcast producer - Annie JoycePodcast producer – Rosie Gillott Interviews producer – Tatiana AldersonArchive - Simon WindsorArchive – Nelly Stefanova Archive – Rob FellowesMusic - Steven Wheeler
