🚨 | Small boat migrant numbers in 2022 are now higher than every other year before put together.
In 2022 so far we have had over 39,400, in 2019 it was 299.
The infrastructure cannot cope with the numbers to process and hotels costing circa £3.5bn a year.

That was unfunded which saw lots of criticism but yet the UK is expected to just keep finding more money for this.

Albanian nationals became the largest group arriving in small boats across the channel in Q2 2022 - accounting for 26%.

This is big business not just for the gangs running the boats but Serco in the UK who are making a fortune.
