In 2018, just 299 crossed.\n\nThe following year, it rose to 1,843 – with migrants often arriving in small groups of less than a dozen, in dinghies bought locally in France or stolen from harbours.\n\nBy 2020, the coronavirus pandemic saw numbers crossing by dinghy escalate. With very little freight traffic crossing the Channel, migrants who once hid away in the backs of lorries were drawn to crossing by small boat instead.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nBy the following year, as Covid continued to have a huge effect on the flow of cross-Channel traffic, the number crossing illegally by boat shot up to 28,526.\n\nThen 2022 saw the biggest year for small boat crossings on record, with 45,774 migrants arriving in the UK. In 2023, there was a drop off to 29,437.\n\nHowever by 2024, it had risen again to 36,816.\n\nLast year, it rose once more to 41,472. This year so far, around 7,400 have made the illegal crossing. That figure is about 35 per cent lower than the same point last year.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n**\n**\n\n**\n**\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
