Like being indebted to gangs and having to get to the UK to be under their control? Can't see many other good reasons to chose the potential death of your family or yourself over a life in Europe.

Obviously wine is cheaper and the roads are nicer in France. But for some people having existing family here and being able to speak English trump the excellent reasons for remaining in France.
I'd be supprised if many Algerians do the trip.
Something I'm curious about is how risky those in boats think the crossing is. Have they already crossed the Med and assume this will be much easier? Also Idk if it is much easier(?)

Not sure this is a bad joke but there are plenty of reasons why people have a valid right to claim aslyum in the UK and why that would be preferential to them than claiming it in France.
