English Channel: Four held in Germany after smuggling gang raids Europol said more than 450 officers from the UK, Germany and Belgium were involved in the operation.

Why is there little mention of this by the media/MPs'? I only came across it in the BBC European news section by chance? #Starmer could have responded to Farage's question in PMQs this week with this but avoided answering him which shows weakness. #pmqs #boatcrossings www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

No strong winds now. 🤷‍♀️ #boatcrossings

The RW media & nut jobs who follow fürhage & #ReformUK would have you believe that socialists & liberals are happy with the small #boatcrossings

We are not, many of us want to see safe & legal routes established & then a zero tolerance attitude to irregular #migration

Net migration falls after reaching record high of 900,000 in 2023 Net migration hit a higher than previously thought record of 906,000 last year, after figures were revised upwards by more than 150,000

Net #migration of 900K in 2023 (down to 700K in 2024); the highly politicised #boatcrossings have little to do with this; it reflects our demand for skills/labour; how do we ensure we're getting the best talent & that the stress on housing, etc. is minimised www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...
