Migrant promoting Channel crossing on TikTok has account removed

A migrant promoting Channel crossings on TikTok has had his account removed after sharing videos on how to navigate the English Channel on a small boat. The TikTok user, known as @alexandrah4200, generated hundreds of thousands of views on his videos, including live streams from a UK asylum hotel. TikTok removed his account following inquiries by the Sun newspaper, citing a "zero-tolerance approach to content promoting human smuggling." The social media platform stated that it works closely with the National Crime Agency to combat organized immigration crime online.
