Record Month for Cross-Channel Illegal Migrants Has Been Smashed Again

Steve Unwin • Jul 27, 2021

Steve Unwin argues that the government is failing in its duty of care to protect and enforce the UK’s borders.



Last month, Migration Watch reported that June 2021 was the worst month ever recorded for detected illegal crossings of the English Channel in small boats – with 2,179 people known to have arrived: more in one month than were detected for the entirety of the years 2018 and 2019 combined (2,134 in the 24-month period).

As of yesterday - Sunday 25 July - a staggering 3,350 illegal migrants are already known to have illegally reached the UK in 124 “small” boats during the month of July – and there is still a week to go!

The government and the so-called “Opposition” at Westminster are in most cases unwilling, and in other cases gutless to really tackle the issue – even though this is facilitated by the wicked organised crime of people smuggling.

Paying France to protect our borders was clearly never going to work – so handing another £54 million to France will make little or no difference. We must withdraw the UK from the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). It is this which is preventing the UK from stopping bogus refugees in the Channel, creating a paralysis in enforcement.

Don’t leave it to someone else – they are probably leaving it to you
