A haulage company owner in Kent says he and his drivers sometimes discover people hidden inside trailers, describing it as a “disgrace” when doors are opened. Lorenzo Zaccheo, who says the depot is roughly ten miles from the Channel Tunnel, presents his experience as an example of irregular migration happening beyond the more widely reported small-boat crossings.
The report focuses on what Zaccheo claims is a “forgotten” migrant route connected to goods transport. It highlights the allegation that drivers can be blamed even when they did not intend to carry migrants. The outlet’s framing emphasizes public attention on small boats while arguing that trafficking and hidden crossings can also occur within lorry operations.
