We expect "net migration to average around 350,000 a year over the forecast period."

"Net migration will stay at 400-500,000 for the foreseeable future."

"Net migration is projected to be minimum 315,000 every year, up from 245,000."

"Net migration is certain to be much lower than before and is expected to fall by over 250,000."

Net migration could be down to around 300,000 "in the next two to three years."

REJECTED Brian Bell

"It [a new Home Office assessment] suggests net migration could fall to 300,000 by 2029."

"Somewhere just below 300,000 would seem like a plausible medium-term scenario."

"Starmer has no intention of stopping the boats."

Starmer's "track record, Labour's track record, the Home Secretary's track record and their actions here in Britain suggest there is no desire, or plan, to actually stop the boats."

"The boats will come, and numbers are likely to continue rising."

Starmer is "on track to smash the record for small boat crossings, with numbers up 44%."

"Labour has no intention of doing this [reducing small boat crossings], and Martin Hewitt is the perfect example of their lack of action."

"It [small boat crossings] is 38% worse than the previous worst year, so things are getting worse, not better."

"It [reduction in small boat crossings] can be done if there's the political will."

"[W]e will stop at nothing to dismantle their [people-smuggling gangs] business models [illegal small boat crossings] and bring them to justice."

Will Labour Reduce Small Boat Crossings in the English Channel?

More than 60,000 African migrants arrived in Yemen in 2024, representing a 38% decrease from the 97,200 arrivals recorded in 2023, attributed to increased patrolling by Yemeni and regional authorities.

This tragedy highlights the desperate conditions driving African migrants to risk everything for a chance at better lives in Gulf countries. Despite knowing the dangers, people continue these journeys because staying home means facing conflict, poverty, and persecution with no hope for improvement.

UN report reveals alarming rise in Africa’s food insecurity despite global improvements

Increased maritime patrols have successfully reduced migrant arrivals by over 30%, demonstrating that stronger enforcement can effectively deter dangerous crossings. Enhanced regional cooperation and border security measures are working to prevent these deadly voyages before they begin.

It feels strange to know that society accepts daily news like this as if it's normal, when in reality, it's not. African migrants transiting through Yemen face staggering danger and abuse, and only strengthened, coordinated protection mechanisms can mitigate crisis-driven exploitation and loss of life.

Rather than treating the migration symptoms caused by record global instability, governments need either to pursue coordinated intervention in areas with high rates of displacement to make them safer, or accept that desperate people will always take risks to improve their lives and open up more legal migration routes.
