"These people are desperate, they've come from countries to get away from, you know, really bad situations. And they are going to do anything, anywhere, where there's a will there's a way. And putting a wall up, it's just going to really cause more problems, cause more desperation and, yeah. It's not really a, a kind of, it seems like a it's a wasted effort really."

"This is not the solution for stopping migrants from going to the UK. So they will have to help them here, they should facilitate them here, they should provide them some information in an information centre to let them know how they can go legally to the UK. Another thing is they should give them proper accommodation here. Then after that they should convince them to stay here, or in other European countries."

"In February this year they demolished over half the camp and here we are six months later and the camp is bigger than it has ever been with more people in it. I think that proves that demolitions do not work and are not a deterrent. Here we are and they are saying that in October they are going to demolish the whole camp and yet they are spending millions and millions of pounds on a wall here. If that doesn't say that even the French authorities admit that they know the demolitions will not work and will not achieve anything. Because otherwise why would they spend this money on the wall?"

The makeshift refugee camp in Calais, France, known as 'the Jungle', has swelled to more than 10,000 people, according to the most recent census by charity group Help Refugees. One in ten are under the age of sixteen.
In order to deter camp residents from travelling to the UK, various security measure have been put in place - and the latest is an enormous wall.
STORY-LINE
The sprawling, ever-increasing refugee camp in Calais.
For years French authorities have erected security fences, surveillance cameras, increased police numbers and even deployed the military at ports, with millions of pounds of the cost funded by UK taxpayers. All to keep refugees out of Britain and deter others from trying. Yet they still come, hundreds more every week, into an even more crowded camp.
The latest security measure is to build a four-metre (13 feet) high wall on both sides of the road, just south of the camp, extending the security for an extra kilometre. The wall will again be paid for by the UK taxpayer - at a sum of two million pounds -and will be completed by the end of the year.
The government says the wall will deter migrants from attempting to board trucks on the road, but critics including charities, volunteers, haulage companies and even the Calais mayor have said the wall will do nothing to stop the attempts to enter the UK.
40-year-old Daryl Bennett, an artist from Brighton in the south of England, is a volunteer for The Hummingbird Project. They are a group of volunteers that set up a safe space for minors to come and do art in the camp, work towards keeping the children away from abuse and help with asylum applications. Their work has recently been shortlisted for the 2016 National Diversity Award.
Bennett said the wall was a wasted effort and the money could be better spent helping people.
Tariq Shinwari is a refugee from Afghanistan. He is seeking asylum in France. He spends the time he has to wait in the camp for his application to be be processed volunteering for Charity aid group Care4Calais and working in the Ashram Kitchen, a food distribution centre in the camp.
Shinwari says building a wall was not the way to stop people trying to enter the UK illegally. He calls for decent accommodation for people in the camp and information centres to help people legally claim asylum in the UK or other European countries.
Clare Mosley is the founder of charity aid group Care4Calais that specifically works inside the camp, supplying refugees with shoes, clothing, sleeping bags, blanket sand tents. Care4Calais has recently been given charity status in the UK and France.
Mosley says the wall is a perfect example of why the French authorities know demolitions of the camp, like the one in February this year, do not work.
"They know the demolitions will not work and will not achieve anything. Because otherwise why would they spend this money on the wall?" she says
Shinwari says if they spent the money helping refugees then no one would be trying to reach the UK.
The wall has been hailed as a new barrier to prevent migrants from getting on the road and boarding vehicles, but its location is south of the camp and only spans one kilometre.
Refugees are continuing to board trucks further south on the A16 junction and are still breaking through the fences around the port. If its effectiveness turns out to be as minimal as many have stated then it may be seen as a lot of money wasted that could have been used to better effect.
