Home Office figures indicated 514 people crossed the English Channel in 10 boats on Wednesday.
Rishi Sunak’s Government is dealing with a “migration emergency” after the busiest day for Channel crossings since the start of 2024.
He said: “It is exactly because we are still seeing people making this perilous journey across the Channel, including people in the last few days, that the PM wants parliamentarians across the House to get behind this Bill and to stop the boats.” Meanwhile, a migrant was taken to hospital when he arrived in Dover, Kent, after crossing the Channel, having told police he was stabbed on a French beach before making the journey on Wednesday.The House of Lords backed a series of fresh changes to the Rwanda Bill on Wednesday night after their previous amendments had been overturned by MPs.
The Church has been accused in recent months of allowing “industrial-scale” baptisms of migrants to assist with their asylum claims, allowing them to suggest they would be persecuted in their home country because they were now Christians. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said his party was committed to stopping small boats crossing the Channel.
