Some 220 migrants arrived in the UK on Wednesday after crossing the Channel, bringing the cumulative number so far in 2025 to 36,954 – more than the 36,816 arrivals in the whole of 2024, PA Media reports. PA says:
It is too early to tell whether this year will see a record number of migrants arriving in the UK after crossing the Channel.
The cumulative total for 2025 so far, 36,954, is 30% higher than at this point in 2024 and 41% higher than in 2023, but 2% lower than at this stage in 2022.
