A record 165 migrants crossed the Channel to the UK in a single boat yesterday - as Andy Burnham was attacked for his 'disgraceful' silence on immigration.The mega-dinghy was launched from France at 6.30am yesterday before the migrants were picked up by a Border Force vessel in UK waters and taken to Dover.It was the largest number of migrants on a single boat since small boat crossings began in 2018, easily beating the previous record of 128 set on July 12. Yesterday was the second day of crossings since Mr Burnham became Prime Minister - piling pressure on him to make the issue a priority. He has promised to end rough sleeping and cap bus fares at £2, while also announcing unfunded cuts to VAT on energy bills and business rates for pubs.But the public remains in the dark about what he plans to do on immigration, including small boat crossings. Some 366 people in total made the journey in three boats yesterday. It came after 172 arrivals on Wednesday - which brought to an end an 11-day hiatus when wind swept the Channel. A total of 77,183 migrants arrived in the UK after crossing the Channel during Sir Keir Starmer's premiership, which followed Labour's election victory in July 2024.According to Home Office figures, 13,007 arrivals have been recorded this year.Sources said the vessel (mega-dinghy) carrying them was a staggering 12 metres long.And more migrants were spotted in the Channel today, meaning the tally could hit around 600 tonight.
