A total of 973 migrants reached the U.K. on Saturday, Oct. 5, beating the previous record for 2024 – which was 882 people in June. Since the Labour Party took control of the U.K. government in July, 13,038 migrants have entered the U.K.

Labour says it is hoping to bring down migration and lessen reliance on overseas workers by addressing skills shortages and improving wages among Britain’s workers. Another goal Labour has is to enforce penalties for employers who fail to prevent abuse of the visa system.
The Conservative Party’s answer to the issue has been the Illegal Migration Act (IMA), which gives the home secretary powers to jail almost all those aboard the boats and move them to East Africa.
The IMA Act has failed to take off since it passed in July 2023, because there isn’t enough space to detain the tens of thousands who qualify.

A NEW STUDY FINDS BRITAIN HAS MORE MIGRANTS IN THE COUNTRY ILLEGALLY THAN ANY OTHER PART OF EUROPE.
ACCORDING TO OXFORD UNIVERSITY RESEARCHERS, THERE ARE 745-THOUSAND UNDOCUMENTED MIGRANTS IN THE U-K.
THAT’S ONE IN 100 OF THE POPULATION.
NEARLY ONE-THOUSAND MIGRANTS CROSSED THE ENGLISH CHANNEL INTO THE U-K SATURDAY — THE HIGHEST NUMBER THIS YEAR.
MORE THAN 13-THOUSAND MIGRANTS HAVE ENTERED THE U-K SINCE THE LABOUR PARTY CAME INTO POWER.
THE LABOUR PARTY SAYS IT IS HOPING TO BRING DOWN MIGRATION AND LESSEN RELIANCE ON OVERSEAS WORKERS BY ADDRESSING SKILLS SHORTAGES AND IMPROVING WAGES AMONG BRITAIN’S WORKERS.
THEY SAY THEY WILL ALSO ENFORCE PENALTIES FOR EMPLOYERS WHO FAIL TO PREVENT ABUSE OF THE VISA SYSTEM.
THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY’S ANSWER TO THE ISSUE HAS BEEN THE “ILLEGAL MIGRATION ACT”, WHICH GIVES THE HOME SECRETARY POWERS TO JAIL ALMOST ALL THOSE ABOARD THE BOATS AND MOVE THEM TO EAST AFRICA.
BUT, THE I-M-A ACT HAS FAILED TO TAKE OFF SINCE IT PASSED LAST JULY, BECAUSE THERE ISN’T ENOUGH SPACE TO DETAIN THE TENS OF THOUSANDS WHO QUALIFY.
