The number of small-boat migrants who have reached Britain since Labour came to power is poised to hit 50,000.
The Home Office confirmed 435 arrived on Saturday – bringing the total since the General Election to 49,516.
Hundreds more arrived at Dover on Sunday, with official figures due to be released on Monday.
It means more than 1,000 migrants have come to the UK since the Government's 'one in, one out' deal with France became operational last Wednesday.
The 50,000 milestone is likely to be hit in the coming days amid ideal weather conditions for crossing the Channel.
