Almost 800 people in small boats made the journey from France to the UK over the Easter weekend.
More than 5,000 migrants have crossed the English Channel this year, with nearly 800 making the journey over the Easter bank holiday weekend, according to the latest figures.
The previous record high figure for January to March was 4,548 in 2022, with 3,793 arrivals in the first quarter of last year.Stopping the boats was one of Rishi Sunak’s five pledges to the electorate ahead of an expected general election later this year. “This is complete chaos. It’s time the Tories got a grip and adopted Labour’s plan of going after the criminal smuggling gangs, with a new cross-border police unit, and set up a new returns and enforcement unit to remove those who have no right to be here.”
The Home Office spokesperson said: “We continue to work closely with French police who are facing increasing violence and disruption on their beaches as they work tirelessly to prevent these dangerous, illegal and unnecessary journeys.
