Home Secretary Suella Braverman listens to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak during a press conference in Downing Street, London, after the Government unveiled plans for new laws to curb Channel crossings as part of the Illegal Migration Bill. New legislation will be introduced which means asylum seekers will be detained and "swiftly removed" if they arrive in the UK through unauthorised means. Almost 3,000 migrants have made unauthorised crossings of the English Channel already this year. Picture date: Tuesday March 7, 2023. PA Photo. People crossing the Channel will not be able to claim asylum in the UK and will face a lifetime ban on returning after they are removed and they will never be allowed to settle in the country or gain citizenship.

There is no way to safely contain such an volatile mixture on an exploration well, so it is simply burned off in this testing phase to avoid an oil slick and a potentially catastrophic explosion. Nine out of ten wells come up dry in the gamble of oil exploration. This one paid off as one of the largest North Sea finds, testing at over 10,000 barrels per day.
