WE will stop at nothing to tackle illegal migration. So this week we have delivered a world first: a new sanctions regime to target the vile people-smuggling gangs.
The first sanctions are hitting these criminals today.

We will go after the gang leaders, those supplying boats and fake passports, and the moneymen.
Their assets will be frozen. Their bank accounts will be closed. And they will be banned from the UK.
For too long, governments have offered nothing but expensive gimmicks – like the Rwanda scheme which achieved precisely zero.
Instead, we're taking real, practical steps that will deliver results.
We've already returned 35,000 people with no right to be here – way up on the year before.
We're working with Germany to close a legal loophole in their system, allowing police to seize small boats being stored and transported in their country.
By working with France, we have agreed to a totally unprecedented returns pilot.
Now, for the first time, migrants arriving by small boat can be sent back to France. Other governments tried to do this and failed.
We're also taking a zero-tolerance approach to the illegal jobs which gangs promise – and which undercut honest businesses.
Under our nationwide crackdown, raids and arrests are already up 50%.
The Sun has rightly put the spotlight on migrants working illegally as food delivery riders. And we're tackling the problem.
A new agreement announced today will see us share asylum accommodation locations with Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats.
If a rider is staying at this accommodation, the companies will know and can close down the rider's account.
Our message to the gangs is clear.
We will be more aggressive than ever to smash your business model and hold you to account.
We will do what it takes to uphold the law and to ensure fairness for the British people.
