Despite recent images circulating on social media around the work of French law enforcement to prevent small boat crossings, they do not represent the full picture. Over 46,000 small boat Channel crossing attempts have been prevented since July 2024. The UK Government is bearing down on small boat crossings, with removals of small boat migrants at record levels and asylum claims down by 12%. The Home Secretary has signed a landmark new payment by results deal with France to boost enforcement action on beaches and put people smugglers behind bars. And almost 70,000 people who were here illegally have been removed or deported – an increase of 41% – and we are going further to remove the incentives that draw illegal migrants to this country.

One of the most powerful moments you will see in Parliament this year. Today, Jess Phillips read the names of 107 women killed, or suspected to have been killed, by men over the last year. Each a reminder as to why violence against women and girls must be tackled as the national emergency it is. They came from every background, every walk of life. Their names are a stark reminder that, for too long, violence against women and girls has been treated as a fact of life - but we will not accept this. Our Violence Against Women and Girls strategy, launched in December, is only the beginning. We are committed to acting faster and doing whatever it takes to protect more women and girls from harm.

Two suspected sham immigration lawyers have been arrested after they were accused of operating at the heart of a shadow industry that ‘coached’ illegal migrants to pretend they are gay. Both suspects are thought to have charged thousands of pounds for a service that advised migrants to fake details of their sexuality to falsely claim asylum in the UK. The arrests, led by the Criminal Financial Investigations team, follow record enforcement success in 2025, with organised immigration crime arrests, convictions and asset seizures hitting historic levels. Both suspects remain in custody as the investigation continues.
