Breitbart: Illegal Boat Migration over English Channel Surged by 25 Per Cent in 2024
In 2024, illegal crossings of the English Channel rose by 25% compared to the previous year, with 36,816 migrants making the journey. This marks a significant increase from 2023, although lower than the record year of 2022. The year is also noted as potentially the deadliest, with varying reports of migrant fatalities.
The Labour government, which took office in July, has seen a 29% rise in illegal landings and has abandoned a previous plan to send migrants to Rwanda. Critics argue that targeting people smuggling gangs may not be effective, with calls for a "turn back the boats" policy similar to Australia’s successful approach.

Fox News: DANNY DANON: UN has failed Gaza. It’s time for a new era
