Nigel Farage has predicted a summer of tragedy if Albanians are granted asylum

The Ukip leader revealed five of those caught earlier this week are being given permission to apply for asylum to remain in the country.

The shocking prediction was made during the live Express.co.uk referendum debate being held Friday afternoon.

Brexit campaigner Mr Farage said the people of Dymchurch are worried the choppy waters will kill more people if more asylum seekers try to attempt the trip this summer.

And he believes if they are given asylum, it will spark a wave of migrant to attempt the trip.
