Officials from the Home Office are spending the week in France trying to identify around 100 unaccompanied minors who can be reunited with relatives already living in Britain before the controversial site is demolished. The first 14 stepped off a coach in Croydon this morning under the fast-track registration scheme, as an EU regulation allows them to seek asylum because they have close family living here.

The first migrant children have arrived in Britain from Calais as a fast-track system is launched to move youngsters from the Jungle camp before it is demolished. Fourteen children aged 14 to 17 arrived by coach at the head office of UK Visas and Immigration in Croydon, south London, to register with the Home Office. The youngsters, who are understood to come from war-torn countries including Syria and Sudan, will be processed at the centre before they are reunited with relatives already living in Britain. They are the first of some 100 children who are expected to make the same journey this week as French authorities prepare to raze the Jungle camp to the ground.
