Andy Burnham says middle class areas will have to take in more migrants, adding that he will ensure arrivals were not only placed in the 'poorest communities'.Vowing that more affluent families would have to accept asylum seekers near their homes, the Prime Minister said: 'All parts of the country need to play their part.'It comes as the number of Channel crossings under his premiership passed the 3,000 mark, with 230 aboard a record 'mega-dinghy' brought into Dover on Monday.That pushed the total since Labour came to power – beginning with the day after the General Election in July 2024 – past the 80,000 mark.Now you can have your say in the Daily Mail's latest poll – do you agree that middle class areas should take more migrants?
In yesterday's poll, Mail readers were asked: 'Should the UK make France do more to solve the small boats crisis?' Out of more than 11,000 votes, 98 per cent of you said 'yes' and 2 per cent said 'no'.
