Piers Morgan has taken a swipe at Keir Starmer after a record-breaking number of migrants made the dangerous journey across the Channel in a single day. Nearly 1,200 people arrived in small boats on Saturday alone, setting a grim new benchmark for 2025, according to fresh Home Office stats. The running total for the year so far has hit around 14,811, reported the Express.
That’s quite the blow for the Labour leader, who recently vowed to “smash the gangs” fuelling illegal migration. But with numbers like this, critics are already accusing Starmer of failing to keep control of the country’s borders.
