Not yet, no. We have no control over who leaves France.

45,755 arrived in 2022

So for half a year that was 22,877

In first half of 2025 the number was less

It said on the news this evening that so far this year is the highest ever.

They don’t.

not true - if you want to benefit from the protections claiming asylum provides, you have to claim asylum.

but it isn't true notch. You are making the numbers up you have seen the data for 2022. H1.

So, 898 in yesterday. Already passed the 25,000 mark this year. In Notch's oft quoted record year of 2022, the 25,000 mark wasn’t passed until the end of August and they say we are in for a record year. Smash the gangs? I can’t see any sign of that, can you @Notch7?

correct

Once I’ve completed a full month in my figures, I’m going to use Notch's math method and multiply it by 12 to get the yearly figure.

Is that because of the school holidays?

Interesting that every month so far in 2025, the figures have beaten the 2022 figures that @Notch7 keeps quoting over and over and over and over. I tell ya, it’s looking more and more like it’s going to be a record year for small boat crossings under Labour.
