It comes as the British Government began detaining migrants under a new "one in, one out" deal with France.
UK officials aim to make referrals for returns to France within three days of a migrant’s arrival by small boat, while French authorities will respond within 14 days.
An approved asylum seeker in France will be brought to the UK under a safe route as part of the exchange.
Labour is having to deal with the unfortunate milestone of 50,000 migrants arriving in the UK after crossing the English Channel.
The landmark was reached reached just 13 months into Sir Keir Starmer’s premiership, seven months faster than under his Conservative predecessor Rishi Sunak.
The number of people recorded as making the journey across the Channel since the Labour leader became Prime Minister passed 50,000 on August 11 2025: day 403 of his time in office, or one year, one month and seven days since Labour won the general election on July 4, 2025.
By contrast, the number of arrivals during Sunak’s premiership did not reach the 50,000 mark until the 610th day of his time in office, on June 25, 2024, according to Home Office data.
This was exactly 20 months since Sunak became Prime Minister on October 25, 2022, and only a few days before the Conservatives lost the general election to Labour.
